HEY THERE-I’M HERMAN!
A.K.A COACH HERM
Fun Facts
I’m a Chicago Bears Fan through and through (as hard as it may be)
You can find me posting up at a bar of a new restaurant with my wife (Jade) and talking about life or with my dog (Brady) who is a very spoiled little black lab.
I used to be a prep cook in my college years and fell in love with it.
Lifting weights is my “happy pill”
Absolutely can’t stand olives and bleu cheese… and am thoroughly convinced my taste buds taste something different than what other people taste… because there’s no way anybody likes what I am tasting when I eat those. EWWWW
I’ve been in your shoes…
I haven’t been living in the gym since college…or traveling the world as a glorified influencer…
I have been working behind a desk trying to build a life like most people and I learned very quickly that it’s not as easy to stay fit once you have to do the whole adulting thing…
So I got fixated on “optimizing” my health…
I cut out carbs (because uh sugar… right?!)
I fasted every morning so that I could live till 150 (l literally thought that was true..)
I did daily HIIT workouts to get into the “fat burning zone”
I spent years feeling defeated by failed fad diets and burning out from overtraining.
And eventually I fizzled out like a shooting star taking a nosedive into a dumpster.
Can you relate?
I was tired of always being confused by mainstream health advice, always ending up in the same spot…. so I decided to dig deeper for myself.
I began really studying fitness and nutrition…
I started strength training consistently, learning about calories & macros, and figured out how to eat my favorite foods while still losing fat.
I started helping real people achieve their goals without having to go through the same mistakes that I did.
What I have learned is that there is a much simpler way… a way that makes fitness fit INTO your life… not control it.
My mission now is to help others like you and me that are searching for a realistic way to lose fat, get stronger, and live a healthy meaningful life.
