About me (Jason): When I started working out in 2003, I was 6 feet tall and 137 pounds. I was about to begin a career in business and just wanted to fill out my clothes and be strong and confident. Eventually I built more than 45 pounds of natural muscle and learned how much I loved the science of fitness and building muscle.

I was certified as a personal trainer by ACSM in 2010 but continued to work in finance. It wasn’t until I injured my shoulder in 2018 and lost 28 pounds of muscle that I decided to create this channel to track my progress as I return to the gym to rebuild muscle and help as many people as possible realize that there’s a simple formula for building muscle and as a beginner you have a huge advantage.
