The Situation
Finance executive at a Zurich bank. Active, rowing 5x a week. Yet still gaining weight. Since his first child in 2001, he had never managed to get below 77 kg. High cholesterol despite what looked like a healthy lifestyle. At 85 kg, when his trousers stopped fitting, it became clear something wasn’t working.
The Problem
More sport was making it worse, not better. Intermittent fasting worked briefly, then stopped. He knew nutrition was the issue but couldn't solve it alone.
"I was doing more sports, gaining more weight."
What changed:
We didn’t add more. We adjusted. Training was reduced, quality increased. Nutrition was structured to support performance, not restrict it.
4 months later:
10 kg gone. LDL cholesterol down by 43% (3.3 to 1.9 mmol/L). Slim fit shirts fit again without pulling. His kids became more health-aware watching him lead by example. " I feel I'm the real me again."
"I wonder how I waited so long to get a coach. I should have done it 15 years ago."
