An executive-approved blueprint to drop from 30% to 15% body fat in 2025
Not a crash diet—it’s a proven 16-week system rooted in science
Hey amigos,
I just dropped my daughter off at school—it’s the best feeling ever.
We sing, exchange ideas, and laugh, which puts me in the best mood.
Back in 2018, I needed three coffees just to get a hint of energy in the morning.
My testosterone levels were rock-bottom, I was living a pretty miserable life.
Little did I know that systematic adjustments to my lifestyle could bring me to where I am today.
Here’s one thing I learned, nothing changes if nothing changes.
The Lean Executive 2025 Protocol combines evidence-based strategies and sustainable habits into a 5-step blueprint designed for busy executives like you and me.
What You’ll Learn Today:
The Strategy: Attain weight loss through optimised health FIRST.
The Tactics: Apply intermittent fasting strategically.
The Habits: The micro habits to 10x fat loss.
Step 1: Intermittent Fasting
The magic lies in its power to turn on metabolic flexibility—the ability to choose to use fat for fuel.
What Science Says:
During fasting, your body depletes glycogen stores and starts burning fat through a process called lipolysis.
Fasting also activates autophagy, a cellular "clean-up" that removes damaged cells.
Improved insulin sensitivity reduces the risk of chronic disease.
Bonus Tip:
Start with a 12-hour fast (e.g., 7 PM to 7 AM) and gradually work up to 16/8. Pair fasting with lower-carb meals to optimize fat loss and avoid energy crashes.

Step 2: Macronutrient Precision
Knowing your macronutrient breakdown ensures you’re losing fat while preserving lean muscle.
What Science Says:
High protein intake (1.6-2.2g/kg of body weight) stimulates muscle protein synthesis and mitigates muscle loss.
Studies show that removing hyper-palatable foods (those high in fat and sugar) reduce decision fatigue and help maintain caloric goals.

Step 3: Daily Movement Milestone
Walking 8-10k steps daily might sound simple, but it’s a powerful tool for increasing your non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)—the calories burned through everyday movements.
What Science Says:
NEAT can account for up to 15-50% of daily energy expenditure, especially in those who are otherwise sedentary.
Low-intensity, long-duration movement like walking doesn’t spike cortisol (stress hormone) the way intense exercise can, making it ideal for fat loss without recovery challenges.
Simply going from 2,000 to 8,000 steps a day can help you lose up to 25 pounds of fat over a year.
Step 4: Sleep Better, Not Longer
Sleep deprivation impacts every fat-loss lever.
What Science Says:
Inadequate sleep reduces leptin (satiety hormone) and increases ghrelin (hunger hormone), leading to overeating.
Chronic sleep deprivation impairs glucose metabolism, increasing the storing of calories as fat.
Step 5: Strategic Supplementation
Two supplements that will amplify results by filling nutritional gaps.
Caffeine: A thermogenic compound that boosts fat oxidation and enhances endurance.
Whey Protein: Its high leucine content is key for activating the muscle-building pathway, mTOR.

It’s not about hitting 15% body fat—it’s about building the foundation for a healthier, longer life.
That’s it for today amigos,
Hasta la vista!
