Jeff Magnuson

I don’t buy XLs anymore. I buy medium or larges now. This week, I drank a lot of water, got most of my steps in, and completed all 3 workouts, which feels good considering how stressful work was.

My non-scale win is that I’m enjoying how strong and healthy I look. I’ve had better meal prep, I’m more intentional with my lifts, and I’m building a stronger mind-muscle connection so I can actually feel the muscle doing the work.

I completed all my workouts, meals, and cardio sessions this week. I also quit vaping, which made cardio a lot easier. When I look in the mirror, especially at the gym, I see so many differences from when I first started.

I’m proud that I hit 10,000+ steps daily, kept my stress down, ate on plan, got more rest, and crushed my back workout. I’m also using less coffee, breathing, counting, and mindfulness to feel less ramped up.

I lost weight and inches, and my blood pressure and resting heart rate improved.

Huge win today. I lost weight and inches, and my vitals improved too. My blood pressure dropped, my resting heart rate went down by 20 beats per minute, and I feel like I’m heading in the right direction.

This week was rough, but I still did well. I hit 10K steps daily, stayed 100% on minimal snacks, followed my meal plan, got partial workouts done

drop a little more weight

I worked out a couple of times while on the road. It was tough with 10, 12, and 16-hour days, but I still managed to get in a few quick modified workouts and had a good pump before bed.

I chose to work with Jeff because of his experience, but what made the difference was how much he listened and supported me through prep without making it too easy. His attention to posing, workouts, and nutrition helped me become a better athlete and coach.
