My Name is Markus Kaulius and I am the Owner of Magnum Nutraceuticals. As the CEO of a company, my days are often long, stress levels are high, and time to make and eat proper meals is limited. These are the excuses I have used anytime I wasn’t in good shape, they led me to the “starting” physique you see here. All my Life I have been skinny-fat. When I was 14 years old, I was 6’4” and 120lbs nothing but bones and fat. We didn’t have much money growing up so eggos and slurpies were staples in my diet. I have always found it very hard to put on any muscle and if I gained one pound per year, I was happy. I have been friends with Micah LaCerte and Diana Chaloux- LaCerte for close to a decade and have enormous respect for them both. They carry themselves with professionalism and integrity and I am so proud of them for giving their lives to Christ, as I have. I also know that they do their transformations in a healthy way- not with the use of illegal supplements, crash diets or a cardio schedule only a horse could keep up with. It was for these reasons that I decided, for the first time in my life, to put my workouts and diet into someone else’s hands. Micah and I decided on a two-stage transformation. I went with the Get Big Get Ripped Plan. The first plan was a 4 month muscle builder and the 2nd a cutting plan. Since I consider myself a tough and devoted dude, I asked for his worst workouts and his toughest diet. I was confident that with a huge Magnum stack for supplementing, I would be able to do whatever Micah threw at me. Boy was I an arrogant fool.
