I love how it's straight to the point no screaming influencer, no sponsorship, no social media just what you went through. Truly inspiring

They never show diet on these things. That's 75% of the whole transformation

I remember starting my own transformation about a year ago. I bought a diet plan from Dietarize and started doing some exercises at home. My brother was making fun of me, thinking I will give up. But day after day, meal after meal, I managed to do it. I lost 20lbs thanks to my diet and dedication and I'm feeling a lot happier now. I can finally tie my shoelaces without holding my breath 😀

Was thinking of Man Utd's Godly Phil Jones, but this is acceptable too

This is what you call a legit natural transformation. Nothing but hard work was put into this. Props to you my man.

As a trainer for many years myself, i just want to throw props out to this guy's PT, who clearly structures some very nice routines, well balanced between traditional lifts and strength endurance work, and enforces solid technique. The results here are the combination of the client's determination and hard work being applied to the right plan.

I know how you did it 1. A clear determined mindset 2. A great diet 3. A perfect trainer.

Came across this video as I begin. Same situation..... after a neck injury, gained weight and depression set in. Now that its been 2 years of recovery from the injury im strong enuff to begin this. Thanks for the motivation. Much respect to ya Phil.

finally something real and not like all this shifty steroid videos , really proud of you man

You can see he had a pretty awesome muscle structure under that fat to begin with. Good job dude.

The most authentic and thus impressive transformation always comes from people who aren't trying to sell you their fitness course. Well done. That's a lot of hard work put into a 160-second video.

Much respect to you bro, I am 288 and starting my journey the long term goal is to weigh 190, but really I want to be able to run again I miss running . Im 46 with sleep apnea, and other weight related issues . Enough is enough thanks so much for being an inspiration to me in this journey . Congratulations on you body and mind transformation !!

Seriously, your video is the most inspiring video I've seen on KZfaq. Between the music, and your progress. Amazing!

The transformation is absolutely stunning. Wow man you did it!

I am starting where you started, this is a match of inspiration for me! I was once in great shape and hurt my low spine due to work related injury and had to take off for two years. The first year was essentially troublesome for me to walk alone. Great work man! Getting married in 10 months this is just what I needed to see.

Good job man looking great, watch motivation like this before I lift. God bless brother!

Thank you for posting this vid. I watch every time I’m down. I’ve bin doing it for a month I lost 10lbs. I started 248lbs in January now I’m 238lbs thank you.

Now this is what I call a transformation video, love to see the work and effort put in instead of skipping to different pictures where they go from out of shape to shredded I like 3 seconds, great stuff 😎

Good job man. I went from 310 all the way down to 188. At 6'3" I felt skinny so I put on some muscle and maybe some fat.. cant lie. But now I'm 213lb feel better than ever. Cant wait wait for covid19 to be over I'm ready for the real gym again! Good luck man keep going!

Probably the best transformation video I've seen! Major props and well done! Congratulations!

Good for you brother!! I've been trying hard to get this weight off as well. Had a car accident after a lady ran a stop sign while texting on her phone. My back is messed up, but your video inspires me to keep fighting through it. Congrats!!

Hey man respect, your dedication gives me the fuel to keep going.

Big change man within half a year, had a exhausted and very hard training, truely inspired by your motivation thanks man🤜

Amazing transformation, I'm trying to get there it's been 1 year on and off inconsistent exercising but you inspire me to continue every day to get to my goal no matter how hard or unreachable it feels

Holy shit bro. That was crazy. Congratulations. That was awesome.

That's dope! Congrats deff motivated me . I'm currently 230 and wanna be 195-200 keep it up!

Just came across this video now, and because of covid and working from home and isolation I went from 220 up to 270. Depression then set in and also I believe a hernia from the weight gain it has been a struggle to do basic things. As odd as it is these video's like this does inspire out of the blue. Great job dude

Thank you. I'm on my way now. Stronger every day

the moment you get more fit that your PT??

I usually don't comment. Can't remember I ever did. I am at a very low & dark place now and have been for a while. Your video and your transformation are AMAZING. THANK YOU do this inspiration! Wishing you the best. Maybe I will be able to post something like this too someday.

Guy was a beast to start with had the tools to become a monster proud of you keep up the good work

Awesome work man! Also on my 6 month goal of being in the best shape of my life. I have a long training background, but the motivation has never been there. I had a crisis of conscience a few months ago and basically found my purpose in life. Now my workouts are super intense, diet is on point and I have 100% no doubt in my mind I will achieve similar results. You and me have similar body types and can put on muscle mass relatively easily (I am assuming your an endomorph like me). This was awesome to see!

these exercises, like a movie star transformation

Holy fuck. Dude this inspires me to keep going. I just hit 239. Started at 305 in June. This makes me want to go so much harder at the gym. haha. Amazing, man!

Big respect to you and your trainer!

Thanks, bro. Needed this video on this cold Monday morning to keep grinding. I'm in that mental space where I'm locked in, focused and determined. Hitting my macros every day, maintaining a deficit of 500-800 kcal/day. No excuses after work to avoid the gym. Lifts are still increasing/maintaining, scale down 10lbs. LFG.

Is it a trailer of a movie

This makes me immediately run to the gym and never get out of.

I just witnessed a man transform into an absolute beast of a muscle machine. Nothing but respect for this guy for doing what he had to do and for motivating the rest of us to do what we have to do.

This is one of my fav vids man 👍🏾💪🏾 5th time watching it after 3 months glad I found it cuz I was wondering what was your meal plan like

This video hyped me up probably the most helpful considering I have a similar build, I'm very curious to know what your meal plan was because I'm the same weight now with the same goal

I lifted since my early teens and I’m 40 now. I’ve too about a year off and really let myself go. Your transformation is incredible and truly inspiring. I’ve been lifting at my old level for about a month and I am finding it hard to stay motivated until I watched your video. My starting point is similar to yours and I have looked like your current shape before. Thanks for the video!!!!

Man this guy's transformation is motivating! Awesome job

Complete and utter respect to you, brother 👊🏽

OMG! THIS motivated me! That's exactly my wt my body type! I'm gonna do it!!

Lets be honest, he had a shitton of muscle before the weightloss already. Nevertheless, mad respect. You look amazing now.

My most sincere congratulations on your hard work. Very motivating!

You have absolutely inspired me Phil. I weigh in about your old weight and would love to shed fifty lbs over the next year.

wow! congrats dude! good luck from Mexico city, i follow you.

Bro he definitely put the work in you can tell he grinded each workout the results are legit congrats brother you a full blown beast keep at it

Nice job broski. A goal and some hard work can make amazing things happen, and you just proved it.

That’s the one! Proud of you my guy

Very proud of you my men.. Because you can obviously see this is real not that shitty steroids video and i can see how much work did you put into this.. But don't stop now go and get your body full with muscles i mean you already are muscles but never give up never stop train hard every day..

Currently doing the same for myself congratulations on the change that’s major. I’m similar to you in that you can tell there is a beast underneath a couple layers of fat. Down to 205 from 285 so far. It’s taking me longer than it did you but it looks like you were friggin ready to get there.

Thanks for the video great inspiration for me to keep getting in shape. 2 months ago i was 258 now im 245 thank you .

Great work. I think once you start to see a change it becomes like an addiction, but many people fail before that. Here I could see someone who made it beyond that point. Nice.

My favorite part of this transformation is he started at almost the same size I am now. I'm at 240, and by the looks of his before pics, we carry it about the same. He might have a little more muscle than me at the start, hard to tell. I'm 15 years older too, and won't have a trainer, but I'm still confident.... this will be my year!

Dude, I started my weight loss transformation at 248, 6'2'''.... quite similar to your build in the before pic on August 28th. I've been the gym 6 days a week for 2 hr sessions and 40 days into it I'm down to 225. Would like to get down to 195 as well. I've been doing intermittent fasting on a low carb diet. Mostly spinach salads and meat and good fats. It's been hard and I'm trying my best. Hopefully I get shredded like you. Thanks for the video- you're a great inspiration especially since you started at the exact weight I did! Cheers!

I'd love to do something like this but it's knowing what to eat and at what intervals. I'm slightly overweight but the life of a trucker is starting to show. Good job man, hope you keep up the great work.

Need to see your daily, ENTIRE MEAL PLAN, please. This was amazing but I need that too. Well done sir! I need to lose 60 lbs as well.

I am the reverse of this. LOL 10 years ago, I was 195lbs, in solid shape...Now after 10 years and having my own family, I am at 220lbs and no where near as active....Maybe I can get some of it back, and push like this guy did.

I don't think the footballer Phil Jones can even work that hard to win Balon d'or Much Respect! :)

i subbed, im in the same spot(depression, lost my wife 6 months ago) but have been sprinting up-hill, weight training 3 days a week. now i can say that madness feeling is going away, i need a channel to keep me focused

Bro, congrats, awesome achievement! First time I found such a vid actually inspirational. Your bio reminds me of myself a bit. Life fucked me a bit too hard and I allowed it to affect me too much, which double-fucked me. Hitting the gym did wonders for my physical health and especially for my mental one.

I was 340 lbs in end june 2019 now in January I'm 206 but I'm 45 and my skin on the stomach is little loose even known I've focused on abdominal exercise but it's ok at least I got rid of 134 lbs and I feel great I eat 1 time a day so intermediate festing and portion control and I very low carbs and I drink coffee and green tea and take a multivitamin and I'm planning to lose another 36 lbs so that's 170 lbs and half my weight

Nossa, Incrível!

music felt like i was watching a movie lol... working hard to get results like this great video man 👍🏻

Man this is awesome, definitely inspired me, I am in the same position. Well done

Following these methods, I have already lost 32 pounds since dec 29th, 2019 ... starting with 271 pounds. Leptitox is not just a diet, for me is a lifestyle that saves lives! I'm going for the next 30 pounds! 💪🏻

he was clearly cutting after bulk, if not then that is Legendary!!

wow very impressive!! Got to give you and your trainer tons of respect

Amazing, man! Really proud not you! I'm on my own journey myself. Keep it up!

Good work bro , but he definitely used to work out before he started this journey or he stoped working for a while then got straight back to this transformation, 6 months to lose fat and keep muscles you have to have some muscle memory going on there :) but as I said it is still hard work and I admire that ...bravo

Hey Phil, this very inspiring. Great work! Could you shed light as what some of you basic measurements (height, body fat%, etc) were before and after? Just curious of the overall numbers to go along with the visualization. Thanks!

I am 53 dropped from 224 to 158 lbs in 5 months. IF and avoiding shite food except for special occasions and still managed a few beers a week and ice cream here and there with the kids. No calorie counting, lots of nutrient dense foods and only ate what. I was actually hungry. A buddy kept asking what I was eating and he would count calories and was surprised how how few or how many calories over daily recommendations I was.like I said, you can lose weight in caloric deficit, eating donuts, but long term it’s going to rebound with dire health consequences. Good job with the weight loss. You found what worked for you. Look up Dr. Jason Fung The Diet Doctor, he wrote the obesity code and explains it well.

Now that's the real inspiration! Respect man

Congrats to him but we all know dieting is 80 percent of everything.

Damn I didn't know Mars had a gym 😂😂😂 1:02

Congratulations! Great effort amazing outcome. I am quite sure your sleep apnea improved or is solved. I am also glad you have the courage to stand up and fight. Very inspirational. Thank you.

Wow, great progress! You put in a lot of hard work!

if you ran this video in reverse that would be my 6 month body transformation once COVID hit

This guy was already body builder. You can see adonis even first picture.

Nice job. I went from 223 to 187. Eating better and exercising everyday. Its habit now. I havent hit the weights as hard as you but I'm the strongest I've been in my life. I'm turning 46 this month. Doing the XYZ Fitness videos now. Day 10 plus my regular push ups, curls, or bench press.

I have got to give you huge props. That was some intense work you did. Great results. Inspired me to stop being so lazy.

Wow!! Perfect gym and a great trainer. I pay 90€ every month only for the gym and it doesnt even have 70% of these toys what i saw in this video.

Just wanted to know I get up sometimes hungry at night how did you stop yourself from eating late a night

Man that’s good ish bro! You a grinder 4sho💪🏾🔥

I needed this. Right now I'm 22, married on Feburary and have my first child due any day now. I recently was diagnosed with severe clinical depression and severe anxiety. I never knew I had this, with it being clinical, I thought I would have known sooner. But while in high school I had hobbies to distract me such as sports and weight lifting. My sophomore year I was 6'1, 215 pounds and I was benching around 300 pounds and was very athletic, (i take pride in my vertical, 33"). After that year i didnt lift hardcore but more just staying in shape. After I graduated I found myself in a dark place. I had no distractions. Then I went through traumatic events making it worse: loss of a very close relative, loss of a close friend, attempting to reconnect with my father who abandoned me however he didnt give a shit, losing a job. I deeply contemplated suicide probably 6 times and 3 or 4 "unsuccessful attempts." I was very unhappy. But it got even worse when I looked at a picture of myself. I didnt even recognize who I was. I stepped on the scale for the first time since my senior year, 298. I was devastated. I somehow managed to find motivation, from January 2018 to December 2018 I lost 60 pounds. I did not do much weight training though. I just wanted to lose weight. However, more shit happened. Lost 3 more relatives, lost another job (this time I was actually fired), and a bunch of other stuff. I weighed myself about a week ago and it read 302. I'm VERY devastated. I started eating healthier right before Thanksgiving. I've already went down to 289. However, my grandmother, who always tells me "I'll love you no matter how you look" bought me pizza. I couldnt resist. So I guess I relapsed tonight. But, this video just motivated me. We just planned a beach vacation for July. I hope to be like you man. Thank you for this. Right now, I'm 6'3", 289 pounds. My goal is to be 225 by July (I have a large frame so being 200 or under would be hard). Prayers, thoughts, and encouragement would be much appreciated. Love you all!

Never knew that losing weight got you a arm sleeve 😂

My god did he went to mars just for his weight loss what a dedication dude anyway congrats dude u r amazing😊👋👏

Wow! what a change! After 6 monthes he looks like a different person. Like somebody else! Well done! congratulations!

Happy for you dude, proud of you bro!!
