Your Body Is Out of Tune.
Time for an Overhaul.
Strength, mobility, and carnivore-aligned nutrition coaching for men over 40, in Calgary and online. Rebuild the engine. Repair the joints. Run like new.
Something Is Wrong Under the Hood
- The engine sputters. Energy is gone by 2pm.
- The frame is stiff. Joints ache. Movement hurts.
- The body stores fuel as fat. The metabolism is broken.
- Generic gym programs leave you injured and frustrated.
You are not broken. You are out of tune. That is fixable.
The Dad Bod Mechanic Method
Pillar 1: Fitness
Resistance training designed for men over 40. Three sessions a week. Forty-five minutes each. Build the muscle that drives the metabolism that burns the fat.
Pillar 2: Nutrition
Carnivore-aligned eating. Meat, eggs, butter, salt. A plan you can stick with, built for your goal and built for you.
Pillar 3: Accountability
Weekly check-ins through the app. Monthly one-on-one Zoom calls. The piece every other program misses.
Who This Is For
This is for you if
- Men over 40 who are done being out of shape.
- Guys who have not trained in years and want to start without getting hurt.
- Men who want a clear plan and real accountability, not another generic program.
This is not for you if
- Anyone who is not ready to show up and do the work.
- People who are not coachable and do not want to make changes for themselves.
