I didn’t start with big muscles or perfect nutrition. I started with a gaming chair and no clue what I was doing.

I’m Manaiah, 17, from New Zealand. Before I got into fitness, I spent most of my time gaming. That was just my thing. I didn’t eat much, wasn’t active, and didn’t really have a routine. I still game now — just not nearly as much.

I started seeing people my age with physiques I respected, like Airaesthetic and Heath Blessing. I wanted to see what I could do if I actually committed to training.

So I signed up for a 6-month gym membership and went all in. I studied everything I could about working out, eating right, and building muscle. There were plenty of times where it felt like nothing was happening — the scale wasn’t moving, and I didn’t look that different. But I kept showing up and kept learning.

This course is what I wish I had from the start. It’s the exact plan I followed — no fluff, no shortcuts, just what actually worked.

If I can do it, you can too.
