The Ripped Body Podcast
For over a decade, we’ve helped thousands of busy guys achieve life-changing transformations — without letting the process dominate their lives.
We do not “hack” their biology. The answer is never in a supplement bottle or morning routine.
Just real food. Hard, but efficient workouts.
The Ripped Body Method is an evidence-based, data-driven system of physique transformation built to deliver.
In this series, we are helping our readers and listeners pinpoint the key gaps in their training and nutrition, and cut the rest.
No more second-guessing. No wasted effort. Just clarity and results that compound over time.
We’d be honored to show you how.

"I want to bulk — but I’m afraid of undoing everything"
Alex opens up about his years-long battle with performance obsession, burnout, and a hidden addiction to Adderall. What began as a drive to "get the physique" spiraled into overtraining, under-recovering, and chasing a shredded look at the cost of his mental and physical health. A serious injury and a breaking point in his personal life forced him to confront what he was running from — and how much he’d been avoiding.
Alex shares how rebuilding his relationship with food, training, and himself has given him a new mission: to pursue sustainable progress, not perfection. But that doesn’t mean the struggle is over — he's standing at the edge of his next challenge: bulking. And with it comes old fears of bloating, body image, and letting go of his abs.
This is an honest conversation about identity, control, and learning to trust the process — even when it’s uncomfortable.
