For years, the number one question people asked me was: 

What should I do? 

Where should I start if I’m a beginner? What diet should I go on? How do I lose weight while gaining muscle? How do I get back into lifting if I’ve been out of the game for a while? How do I achieve a 500-pound deadlift pain-free? What’s the best way to gain 10 pounds of muscle without hormones or peptides?

So I talked to my team. There had to be a way to take everything I’d learned over 60 years in fitness, health, nutrition, and goal-setting — plus the latest science on what really works — and put it in one place. 

That’s when they said: 

We should build an app. 

Actually, they said, we have to build an app. 

That’s how the Pump Club app was born. 

If you have any interest in learning directly from me and my team, I want you to consider trying the app—it’s free for 7 days anyway. 

Here’s what you’ll find: 

Dead-simple, paint-by-the-numbers workout programs, designed by me and my team of experts, for all levels of experience

The approach to nutrition I personally follow — no counting calories, no major restrictions, no BS

My own goal-setting plan and template to accomplish your dreams

Community support from thousands of people lifting each other up 

Q&As with me — I’ve done more than 50 live Q&As in the app, and I don’t plan on slowing down

Coaching calls, live events, and more — all designed to help you get into the shape of your dreams and live a better life

I have to be honest: 

I’ve never seen this many people get so many incredible results in my entire fitness career. 

I mean that. 

One more thing you should know. Most fitness companies are happy if you pay and disappear. I’m not.

So we made something we call Earn It Back:

After your trial, you pay $150 for your first year. Finish one program, we send $50 back to your card. Finish four, another $50 comes back.

One hundred dollars a year, automatically refunded, for as long as you keep training.

We might be the only product in the world that gets cheaper the more you use it.

Just make sure you use the link in this email to start your free trial.

The App Store and Google Play won't let us automate the refunds, so Earn It Back only works when you join through us.

Go ahead. Start a free trial. There’s no risk. (We even have a 30-day money-back guarantee.)

If you hate it, cancel. If you don’t absolutely love it, cancel. 

This is my life’s work in fitness, in one app. 

Either way, I’ll see you in the next newsletter—which will always be 100% free, forever. 

And regardless of what you decide, my commitment to you is to keep pumping you up. No matter what.

See you in the village soon.
