A Letter From Client Zero
You built the business.
Now rebuild the body.
A 16-week system for founders, executives, and high-performing dads who want to lose 15–30 pounds, rebuild energy, and create a body capable of supporting the next decade of life.
I'm 48. I built this because I needed it first — not as someone selling it to you from the sidelines. Here's where I'm at right now. Numbers still moving.

No 90-minute gym sessions. No extreme diet. Just the system below — built for someone actually running a business.
If This Sounds Familiar
You built a successful life. Your body didn't keep pace.
Chances are you've spent years building the company, the income, the family. But somewhere along the way, your health started slipping.
Not because you're lazy. Not because you've lost your discipline. Because life got heavier — and the things that worked in your 20s and 30s don't work the same anymore. You don't recover like you used to. You don't have unlimited time. And honestly, you don't want to spend 90 minutes a day in the gym.
You just want to feel good again. You want to:
- Lose the extra weight
- Get stronger
- Sleep better
- Have energy after work
- Feel confident in your body again
- Enjoy your kids, your spouse, your hobbies — without your body holding you back
That's what Founder Recomp 16 is designed to do.
The Founder Myth
It was never a motivation problem.
Founders don't have a motivation problem. They have a recovery problem. A capacity problem. A systems problem.
Most of the men I work with aren't lacking discipline. They're already carrying plenty of it — businesses, families, employees, deadlines, stress. Discipline was never the missing ingredient.
The actual problem is that most fitness programs are built for people whose full-time job is fitness. You don't need another challenge. You don't need six days a week in the gym. You definitely don't need another extreme diet — you need a system built for someone who's already maxed out on willpower elsewhere.
You need a smarter system — one that fits your life instead of competing with it. That's exactly what I built for myself first, before I built it for anyone else.
Introducing
Founder Recomp 16
A 16-week body and energy rebuild designed specifically for busy men 40–55.
The goal isn't just weight loss. It's reclaiming the health, strength, energy, and physical capacity needed to enjoy the next decade of your life. Most clients lose 15–30 pounds — but that's not what they end up talking about. They talk about swimming without pain. Getting off blood pressure medication. Having more energy. Feeling less stressed. Finally understanding what to do — and doing it.
The Three Pillars
What Happens Over 16 Weeks
High-ROI Strength
You get stronger, more mobile, and more resilient in three sessions a week — no junk volume, no living in the gym. Exactly what I do, from my own home gym. The outcome isn't a bigger lift number, it's a body that can keep up with your life.
Simple Whole-Food Nutrition
You stop thinking about food as a problem to manage. Four single-ingredient, whole-food meals a day, evenly spaced — no cutting calories, no cutting carbs, no obsession. The outcome is eating well becoming automatic, not a daily decision.
Daily Capacity
You get your energy back. Sleep, walking, and recovery — the habits that actually move the biggest numbers. I sleep 7+ hours on a fixed bedtime and average 10,000+ steps a day. The outcome is showing up sharper for your business and your family, not just lighter on the scale.
The Path
The Four Phases
Reset & Reclaim

Build & Burn
Build strength. Lose fat. Increase energy.
Expand Capacity
Feel stronger. Improve performance. Increase confidence.
Own the Lifestyle
Solidify the habits. Create a sustainable system. Leave with a plan for the next decade.
What Clients Actually Say
These aren't fitness results. They're life results.
"Swimming is painless now."
— Hudson Hale"Everything else was temporary."
— Joe Dahlstrom"I finally know what to do."
— Alisha Boston"I got over four hours of work done."
— Heather Gitkin"My blood pressure came down and I'm off medication."
— Rick Newsom"Starting to feel really good about my fitness."

— Aric & April ShalevThis is for you if
- You're 40–55
- Founder, business owner, executive, or high-performing dad
- You've gained 15–40 pounds over the years
- You want your energy back
- You want a system that fits your life
- You value longevity over impressing strangers
This is not for you if
- You're looking for six-pack abs in six weeks
- You want punishment and exhaustion
- You're unwilling to change your habits
What This Actually Costs You
Right now, without a system like this, here's what the next 16 weeks likely cost you anyway — you just don't see it on a bill.
The blood pressure medication you might not need. The vacation days spent too tired to enjoy them. The energy that used to be there for your kids at 6pm and isn't anymore. The decade of capacity that quietly erodes while you're heads-down building everything else.
Founder Recomp 16 isn't an expense on top of that. It's what stops the slower, invisible one.
