48 men have reached their target body with me

Is your family getting the best of you, or what's left of you?

Jeremy Wiederkehr during a television interview in Sharjah

I coach Muslim men one to one to lose 10 kg in 12 weeks around their salah, work and family, without dieting, and I keep working with each of them until the goal is reached, in sha Allah.

It's men only, and you work with me directly rather than with an assistant or an AI chatbot.

Why you're here

One of these two sentences has probably already gone through your head.

"I don't feel comfortable in my own body any more."

You notice it when you get dressed, when someone takes a photo, and when you sit down and feel your stomach press against your belt. Nobody says anything, but you know, and it has started to change how you carry yourself, even in the places where you used to feel most sure of yourself.

"I don't have the energy I need any more."

You feel heavy at fajr, the stairs leave you out of breath, and by the time you get home there is nothing left for your family. The work still gets done, but everything after it gets whatever is left over, and lately that is not much.

These are usually what make a man start. Underneath them sits something you already know, which is that this body was entrusted to you and you will be asked what you did with it.

فَإِنَّ لِجَسَدِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا، وَإِنَّ لِعَيْنِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا، وَإِنَّ لِزَوْجِكَ عَلَيْكَ حَقًّا

"Your body has a right over you, your eyes have a right over you, and your wife has a right over you."

Sahih al-Bukhari 5199

In all of this, the problem is not your discipline. You pray five times a day and you fast thirty days a year, so you have already proved you can hold a line that other people can't.

Why it hasn't worked so far

Every diet you tried was built on willpower, and by maghrib yours is gone.

Every ordinary diet works the same way. It asks you to decide, fresh every single day, against whatever you actually feel like doing. That holds for a few days while your head is still clear. After a twelve hour day of work, decisions and other people's problems, the exact resource that system runs on is empty, and it is empty at the worst possible hour.

So when it falls apart again, that is not a flaw in your character. It is the predictable result of a plan that was built on the wrong resource.

You already have proof of this, once a year. In Ramadan you eat well for thirty days, you feel lighter, and you tell yourself that this time it stays. Then the structure is taken away again, and by the second week of Shawwal you're back where you were. Nothing about you changed in those two weeks. What changed is that the structure stopped holding you.

Binge eating, a lot of sweets, and those blunt diets that work for two or three weeks and then end in the yo-yo effect.David Gratzer, review on Trustpilot
Two days of going through with it, then one stressful day, and it was all forgotten again.Lukas Köchl, interview on YouTube

What you were missing was never more willpower. It was a plan built on structure that still holds on the day everything goes wrong.

The method

Four principles that make a plan hold, even on your worst day.

01

A change, not a diet

We don't run a diet with a start date and an end date. We change how you see food, how your week is built, and what you do without thinking. What you learn in the process stays with you long after we stop working together.

02

Structure, not willpower

We rebuild your day so that the right decision is the easy one and the wrong one takes effort. Your day already has five fixed points in it that you never miss, and we build the rest around them, so the daily fight with yourself simply stops happening.

03

Routine that runs on its own

What costs you effort in the first weeks turns into habit through repetition. After a while training is simply part of your week, and you stop asking yourself every afternoon whether you're going today.

04

Someone who holds you to it

You don't have to carry this alone. I build the plan around the life you already have, I see every day how it's going, and I make sure you actually do it, especially in the weeks when you don't feel like it.

See what this looks like for me What these four principles look like for your week is what the call is for.

About me

I competed, and then I left it for the sake of Allah.

I started training for the same reason many of my clients come to me, because I couldn't stand what I saw in the mirror. That turned into an obsession that took me onto an international stage, as vice-champion in natural bodybuilding and champion in the biceps curl.

I grew up in Switzerland and I wasn't raised Muslim. When Allah guided me to Islam, it changed far more in my life than I ever expected. I left the country I was born in and made hijrah to Dubai, where I got married, and later Allah opened the way for me to al-Madinah, where I live today.

As my iman grew and I tried to obey Allah in more of my life, I understood what bodybuilding actually required of me. So I left it behind completely, for His sake. Not because I stopped loving the work, but because my body was never mine to put on display.

What stayed is the knowledge. I know what it takes to change a body down to the last detail, and I know from the inside what it costs a man to keep something up for years. Today I use that one to one with men who want their body to stop being the weak point in a life that is otherwise going in the right direction.

Principle two, in practice

Small decisions you make once, so you stop fighting yourself every day.

Structure sounds abstract, but in practice it is very concrete. These are the things we build together, around your calendar, your household and what you actually like to eat.

With small adjustments from Jeremy I sleep much better, my watch showed full marks for the first time, and I have more energy during the day.David Gratzer, review on Trustpilot
What you don't have to do

I'm not taking anything away from you that you don't want to give up.

You will not count calories with me and you won't weigh yourself every morning.

You won't get a prescribed meal plan to work through.

You won't cut out carbohydrates or any other food group.

And the food you actually eat stays, because rice, bread and what is cooked at home have a place in your plan.

You also won't be handed a diet written for a man who eats alone at his desk. If most of your meals are shared, late, and at the table with your family, that's the situation we build around, not a problem to be fixed.

وَكُلُوا وَاشْرَبُوا وَلَا تُسْرِفُوا ۚ إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْرِفِينَ

"Eat and drink, and do not be excessive. Indeed, He does not love those who are excessive."

Part of Surah al-A'raf, 7:31

The biggest difference is that with all those diets you turn your whole way of eating upside down, completely different from what you ate before. In the coaching you look at the eating you already do in your daily life, and improve it step by step. That makes it much easier to keep.From a client interview
What to expect

What happens as soon as you join.

How we start

Your coaching starts with a body composition measurement. It shows us exactly where you are starting from, and every decision after that is based on it.

Out of that data I build your personal roadmap, and we go through it together in its own session before you do a single training session. From the first day you know where you stand, what we're working towards, and how we'll tell along the way whether it's working.

What impressed me most was that it wasn't only my weight that improved, but my health overall. My blood values at the doctor got noticeably better.Lukas, review on Trustpilot

And how it goes from there

01

Onboarding, two weeks

We take stock, set up your app and go through your roadmap together.

02

Acceleration, two months

I guide you closely, we lay the foundations of your eating, and we make the first adjustments to your week.

03

Mastery

We keep adjusting your plan to your life, to travel, to Ramadan, and to the stretches where work takes everything.

04

On your own

Your routines keep running without me, because by then you understand why you do what you do.

Take the first step The first step is your application and a free call. The measurement and your roadmap come after it.
Results

They did not have more time than you. They had a structure.

9.5 kg in two months

"As a managing director there's little time left to look after your own body."

Pascal's calendar was full of meetings and business dinners, and he had already tried apps and various challenges without anything holding. After two months, 9.5 kilograms were gone, without him having to rearrange his life.

"I've trained for ten years, but on my own I never got there."

Between work and everything else, Lukas kept falling back into the same pattern. He had nobody to answer to except himself. Today he is stronger than he has ever been.

"At some point the weight just crept on."

André had little time, stressful weeks and too much comfort after work. He lost ten kilograms without going hungry once and without giving up anything he enjoys eating.

What's in the coaching

You are never left alone with it.

What made the difference for me was the feeling that somebody is behind me, somebody I can message basically around the clock.David Gratzer, review on Trustpilot
My commitment

I work with you until your goal is reached.

If we don't reach your goal inside the agreed timeframe, I keep working with you at no further cost until we do, in sha Allah.

We set your goal together, measurable and with a timeframe, and it's written into your contract. I don't put that in writing because it sells well, but because I don't hand over half-finished work. If you decide to do this with me, I carry part of the risk with you.

What I need from you in return

You check in daily in the app, and it takes thirty seconds. That's the only way I can see how things are going between our sessions and step in before a bad day turns into a bad week. Forgetting a day doesn't cost you anything. Going quiet for days or weeks without telling me does, because then I can't stand behind the outcome.

We define your goal together on the free call.

The commitment is part of the coaching and is set out in the contract. The details are in the terms.

What might still be holding you back

Five thoughts I hear almost every week.

"My deen is the priority. My body isn't."

Your deen is the priority, and nothing here competes with it. The question is what condition you're in while you carry it. Standing in qiyam, fasting outside Ramadan, walking to the masjid, travelling for umrah, carrying your children, working long enough to provide, all of it runs on a body, and yours is getting worse at it every year you leave it.

الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ

"The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer."

Sahih Muslim 2664

So nobody is asking you to put your body before your deen. The point is the opposite, that a body you've neglected quietly takes things away from you, and most of what it takes are things you care about far more than your waistline.

"I can do this on my own."

You probably can, because you've done harder things than this. The question is when you'll get to it, and whether you'll keep it this time. Most of my clients had already done it alone two or three times before me, and lost it again afterwards.

And if I don't hear from you for a few days, you won't get an inspirational quote from me. You'll get a message asking where you are, and we get you back on track that same day.

Pushing yourself on your own is always harder than having a person standing behind you.Malte, from a client interview

"I could just use AI for this."

You can, and you'll get a decent training plan in thirty seconds. But it will be the same kind of plan you've had before. It doesn't know your week, it doesn't see when you stop, and it doesn't care whether you get there.

What makes the difference is someone who notices on Monday that you haven't checked in since Thursday and reaches out to you, instead of waiting until you come back on your own. AI always waits. It doesn't want anything from you, and it loses nothing if you never arrive.

I do lose something. My name is attached to whether you reach your goal, and I've put in writing that I'll keep working with you at no further cost if we need longer than planned. No AI carries that risk with you.

"I'll just join a gym."

You can, and many of my clients train in one. But the membership is rarely what was missing, because over ninety per cent of my clients already had one before they came to me. And if the gyms near you are mixed and you'd rather not train in them, say so on the call, because that changes the plan and not the outcome.

I'd already been in the gym for a year, but I was unhappy with my body. I built more fat than muscle, had no real training plan, and just ate whatever was there.Leo Sträuli, review on Trustpilot

"It's not worth it for me."

I can't answer that from here, and I don't want to. That's exactly why the first call is free. On it you find out what I'd actually do for you and what it costs, and then you decide in your own time. If I see during the call that I can't help you, I'll tell you.

It takes about twenty minutes, costs you nothing and is not binding.

Is this for you?

This isn't for every man, and that's on purpose.

It fits if

  • you're a man with a full week and real responsibilities.
  • you're tired of feeling the way you do in your own body.
  • your deen comes first, and you want a body that supports it instead of getting in the way.
  • you don't want a new life, you want a structure that fits the one you have.
  • you're ready to invest in yourself.

It doesn't fit if

  • you're looking for a shortcut that costs you nothing.
  • you want a crash diet that takes off ten kilograms in four weeks.
  • you don't want to talk honestly about how you actually live.
  • you can't spare thirty seconds a day for a check-in.

I coach men only.

This sounds like me On the call we work out together whether I can actually help you.
How it works

Four steps before we start.

  1. Step 1

    You fill in the application

    It takes a few minutes, and I read every application myself.

  2. Step 2

    I get in touch with you personally

    We speak briefly about your situation and your goal, and work out whether and how I can help.

  3. Step 3

    We have the free call

    You come out of it with a clear strategy built around your situation, whether or not we end up working together.

  4. Step 4

    We decide together

    If it fits, we book the onboarding session right there. If it doesn't, I'll say so honestly. Nobody gets talked into anything with me.

Common questions

What I get asked most often.

"What does the coaching cost?"
It depends on your goal and on the scope, so I give you the number on the free call once I know what you actually need. Any number before that would be a guess. The call itself costs you nothing and is not binding, and there is no interest on anything, in any arrangement.
"How much time do I need each week?"
It depends on your goal, and we build the plan around your calendar rather than the other way round. Typically that's three to four training sessions a week. One of my clients manages it alongside eight or nine hours a day in an office. On top of that, you need thirty seconds a day for your check-in.
"How does this work around the prayers?"
It works because of them, not around them. Five fixed points in the day are exactly what a structure needs, so your meals hang on them and your training sits where it doesn't collide with jama'ah. Most men come to me thinking their day is too fragmented for this. It's the opposite, because your day is already more organised than most people's.
"What about Ramadan?"
We plan for it before it arrives instead of reacting to it. Training moves to after iftar or before suhoor depending on your work, the volume comes down, protein and sleep get protected, and the goal for the month is holding what you built rather than pushing forward. Most men either lose progress during Ramadan or lose what they gained in it within a few weeks of Shawwal. With a plan for both, neither has to happen.
"Is the food halal, and do I have to eat differently from my family?"
Nothing I recommend is ever haram, and nothing in your plan will be food you wouldn't eat anyway. You eat what your household eats, cooked the way it's already cooked, and we adjust amounts, timing and the balance of the plate. If you're in a country where the options are limited, that's part of what we solve.
"Is there music in the app or the exercise videos?"
No. There is no music in the app or in any of the exercise videos, so you can follow your training without compromising on that.
"Do I need a gym, and what if I don't train in mixed gyms?"
No, both work. If you don't have a gym or don't want to train in a mixed one, I build you a plan for home or for a men-only facility, and plenty of my clients train that way. Even if you normally go to the gym, you get a home version, so a day when you can't make it there still counts. Equipment changes the route, not where you end up.
"Do I have to count calories or weigh my food?"
No. You photograph your meals and we go through them together. If you prefer to count, you can, but it is explicitly not necessary.
"I travel a lot. Does it still work?"
Yes, that's exactly what the programme is built for. You get training plans for a hotel room, help with eating while you're away, and adjusted sessions for the weeks where there's less time. The same applies for umrah.
"What happens if I get injured?"
Then you get a plan that works around the injury. One of my clients broke his foot and kept building muscle with a home programme.
"I'm over fifty. Am I too old?"
No. Mario was fifty-five when he started with me and lost nine kilograms in six weeks. Age changes the strategy, not the result.
"How long until I reach my goal, and what if it takes longer?"
It depends on where you're starting and what you want, and we set the timeframe together in your contract. If we need longer, I keep working with you without you paying again until your goal is reached, in sha Allah. That's the core of my commitment.
"When can I start?"
I take on five new clients a month, because I coach every one of them myself. If a place in the current month is still open when we speak, we start straight away. If they're taken, we plan your start for the following month and fix the date on the call.
"What happens on the free call?"
We speak for about twenty minutes about your situation, what you've already tried, and your goal. Afterwards you know what a path for you would look like. There's no pressure and no persuasion, and if I can't help you, I'll tell you.
"Do you coach women?"
No, I work with men only.

If you've read this far, it's for a reason.

This hasn't been on your mind since today, and it won't go away by itself. The first step is your application, it takes a few minutes, and it is not binding.

I take on five new clients a month, because I coach every single one of them myself and hand nobody over to a team. Once those places are gone, and they usually go before the end of the month, your start moves to the month after.
