How Dhrupad Got Shredded Just in Time for His Wedding

Most people have been through a weight-gain phase in their lives. 

A phase where they’ve piled on the pounds in such a short space of time it’s almost taken them by surprise. 

And it’s usually through stress, sustaining a long-term injury, or some sort of midlife crisis…

For Dhrupad, it was during his “gaming phase”. In other words, he got lazy and spent most of his time sitting down, staring at a screen and snacking on junk. 

That’s how he piled on 15 pounds of body fat and got into the worst shape of his life…just as his wedding was approaching! 

Dhrupad had never been more overweight than he was in that moment, and that scared him. 

So he came to KMAK for help. 

Over the next 8 months, he achieved an amazing transformation that saw him go from pudgy and out of shape to absolutely shredded, backed by a desire not to be embarrassed by how he looked on the biggest day of his life.

The Journey From Rock Bottom

Like a lot of people who come to KMAK, Dhrupad actually grew up as a pretty athletic and sporty kid at school.

But life took a different direction, and one way or another, he fell into a phase of playing video games that completely derailed his physical condition. 

This wasn’t just a minor decline in fitness, too. Because he put on 15 pounds of fat and gained that typical dad bod look with love handles and a waistline wider than his shoulder width – not the look most men strive for! 

The Wedding That Became His Catalyst

Rather than letting his upcoming wedding become a source of stress about his appearance, Dhrupad used it as an anchor of motivation to get back into shape.

This reframing turned a potentially negative situation into a powerful catalyst for change.

With urgency and a strong reason “Why” he wanted to transform, Dhrupad kept his focus on that all-important date that symbolized a fresh start and a commitment to becoming the person he wanted to be for this new chapter of his life.

The KMAK Athlete Who Showed Him What Was Possible

Dhrupad’s decision to work with KMAK came after seeing a previous client’s results and knowing there and then that’s exactly what he wanted to achieve… or even surpass. 

He’d seen concrete proof that the aesthetic build he’d always wanted was actually attainable, and that moment lit a fire under him.

Because for years, he had struggled with finding the right formula to achieve his goals, trying various approaches that never quite clicked. So seeing someone else’s transformation gave him a clear target and proof that the methods worked.

This visual evidence of what was possible became the foundation for his belief that he could achieve similar results, even though his own journey would require overcoming unique challenges.

The Hesitation About Remote Coaching That Disappeared

Like many people considering online coaching, Dhrupad had concerns about not having someone physically present to improve his form and provide in-person guidance. 

This hesitation is completely understandable, especially for someone serious about maximizing their results.

However, once he started the program and received the first round of feedback, he realized that physical presence wasn’t necessary for effective coaching. The coaches could provide the same valuable feedback from thousands of miles away.

This discovery changed his entire perspective on what effective coaching looks like and proved that the right systems and communication can bridge any physical distance.

The Discipline That Made Everything Possible

Dhrupad’s biggest takeaway from his transformation is that everything comes down to discipline and support. 

He learned that there are days when you don’t want to show up to the gym, when you just want to sleep in, but you have to get yourself out there and put in the work.

This understanding that discipline, not motivation, drives results became fundamental to his success. 

And when you have a coach in your back pocket to light a fire under you, remind you what you’re striving for, and keep your focus on the end goal, motivation no longer becomes the be-all and end-all of your progress.

The Eight-Month Journey To Dialing It In

After eight months of dedication, consistency, and fine-tuning with our help, Dhrupad finally dialed in the formula that had eluded him for years. 

A formula where he didn’t have to give up all of his favorite foods, ditch his social life, and become some sort of fitness hermit just to get a 6-pack. 

This meant he could build new sustainable habits and find the balance between prioritizing his health with living a life he loved.

Sure, he had to make some sacrifices – he couldn’t spend half his day gaming and snacking on chips! – but Dhrupad never really wanted to live like that anyway. Like most people, he sort of just fell into a bad habit and didn’t know how to shake it.

So we showed him how to and rediscovered that sporty kid that was still hiding deep inside. 

And not only did he end up getting into the best shape of his life, but he’s now got those memories for life.

Memories of overcoming obstacles and a real dip in his life to achieving a transformation that made him feel special on his biggest day. 

From Pudgy To Shredded

Dhrupad’s journey from being pudgy and out of shape to absolutely shredded in only eight months shows what you can do with a powerful goal and the right coaching. 

And that really is the difference between staying stuck in the situation you’re currently in, or even letting it spiral further…

To taking back control.
