we decided that he would focus on losing
8-10 pounds of body fat and gain energy
within the next 30 days. As a long-term goal
he was determined to lose 40-50 lbs of body
fat and put on lean muscle mass.
So, it was with these solid goals that I took
Cort to get his body composition analyzed.
We needed to know how much body fat and
how much lean muscle mass he had. Another
critical bit of information we needed was
the tape measurement of his body parts.
Although we had set goals of weight loss,
what had a higher priority was how his body
composition was shifting. If he were to lose a

lot of body fat and retain/gain muscle, then he
would become shredded. The number on the
scale would not be helpful because it wouldn’t
reflect all of the hard work he would be doing.
I analyzed Cort’s eating habits as well.
Starting with the moment he woke up, to
whether or not he skipped breakfast, to the
nitty gritty of what exactly was on every
plate of food. After learning all of this, we
were able to determine how little protein he
was eating. We compared his food intake
with his Resting Metabolic Rate, his Protein
Factor, his Body Mass Index and immediately

Herbalife, lean meals, healthy snacks, and
overall nutrient timing to go with his yoga,
jogging and weight training.
The journey wasn’t so easy in the
beginning. There were times that he wanted
to give up. Times that he felt stressed out
from the requirements of his business. Times
that he didn’t have to exercise. But, as his
