This Genetic Freak Transformed His Physique and Packed on Muscles
Although this client of mine was working with terrible lighting in the first pic and absolute good lighting in the second pic, my man put in the hard yards, and in a very rare case, we discovered a genetic freak! Training hard and eating right, he managed to completely transform his physique and stack on a heap of muscle before jetting off to Europe for the summer.

8kg of Fat Lost, PBs Shattered, and Muscle Gained – All While Crushing a FIFO Job!
My client came to me with the initial goal of getting shredded. We implemented a calorie deficit along with 5 day training split and cardio post workout, while working a very demanding FIFO job he still managed to show up every single week never missing a check in and ticking every box as best he could given the challenges of working fifo every single day.
Throughout the cut he levelled up on many occasions to come in 1% better every time which in the end meant he lost over 8kg body fat while hitting multiple pbs along the way and putting on a substantial amount of muscle, we’ve now moved into a bulk with the future goal of competing in a bodybuilding show.
Do you also want to get shredded? DM us and let’s do it!
From FIFO to Shredded: Lost 13kg, Got Lean, and Now Bulking with More Muscle Than Ever!
This client initially came to me with the goal of getting shredded, and we did just that! Started off working FIFO but then moved into a Perth-based role, which came with its own challenges. We adjusted the plan time and time again to suit, and overall ended up losing 13kg and getting shredded!
We have since started a bulk phase and have surpassed the body weight we started at, all while being in far better condition.
This journey showcases how dedication and flexibility can lead to fantastic results! If you’re ready to take your fitness journey to the next level, we’re here to help you craft a personalized plan that works for you. Let’s make your goals a reality!

75% Through the Fat Loss Journey, 18kg Down and Wedding-Ready
Brent came to me at 27, overweight, low energy, and not liking what he saw in the mirror. He was working FIFO, managing a team, and had every excuse to stay stuck but he didn’t.
With a structured plan, accountability, and consistent effort, he dropped 34-35kg over 18 months, getting down to 85kg in time for his wedding. It wasn’t perfect there were ups and downs but he showed up, stayed committed, and completely changed how he looks and feels.
If you’re in that same spot low energy, unhappy with what you see, and unsure where to start this might hit close to home.
From Doubt to Stage-Ready: Tim's Unstoppable Transformation
Tim came to me frustrated with his previous coach, just 8 weeks out from the ICN Bunbury competition.
At first, I thought it might be best to cancel the competition prep to avoid promising something we couldn’t deliver in such a short time. But Tim wasn’t ready to give up—he pushed through, worked harder than ever, and transformed his physique into one of the most shredded versions of himself. In the end, we made the call to step on stage and absolutely crushed it!
If you’re ready to turn your own doubts into undeniable results, let’s team up and make it happen.

Why Richard’s Muscle Lab?
Only FIFO blokes know how it is. It’s not just a job, but a lifestyle choice. The long hours, the mental challenges, the bad food it’s a job that requires strength inside and out.
So you need fitness coaching that knows this inside and out, and the support you’ll need. Whether that’s prepping food from the mess on site, or completely re inventing a workout routine to match the gym equipment available.
This is why Richard’s Muscle Lab was created to support lads like yourself on your fitness journey without FIFO getting in the way. We know the work arounds, what you need to prep, and how to get a great workout in with next to nothing so you can smash your targets no matter the conditions.
hey MAte, My name is Richard
I’ve got to be honest I was a chubby teenager!
I had no self confidence, avoided sports, the pool, the beach anything that meant taking my shirt off. At 16 years old, I hit the gym. I had no idea what I was doing, but I gave it my best shot.
Jump forward to 10 years, I stepped on stage in my first bodybuilding competition…
