Rebuild a strong, pain-free body in 60–90 days.
You've reached the point where the old approach stopped working. This page tells you exactly what the next six weeks look like, what it costs, and how to know whether it's for you. Read it, then either book a call or claim your place.
"Trying to exercise with injuries just wasn't working. I was really frustrated. But with Mike's guidance, the issues I had have pretty much gone away."
— Erik Blackwood · coaching client
You've been doing everything right. So why won't it hold?
You eat "clean." You move when you can. You've tried the apps, the fasting, the boot camps. And still — the weight round your middle won't shift, your energy is unreliable, and something always aches.
Here's what no one told you: the fitness and nutrition advice most people follow was drawn up for a body in its thirties. After 45 your hormones, recovery and metabolism play by completely different rules. Keep building on the old plan and you don't just stall — you get injured, exhausted and demoralised.
It isn't a willpower problem. It's a blueprint problem.
Meet the Core Build Accelerator System
Not a course. Not a PDF. A six-week live coaching build, delivered on Zoom by Coach Mike, engineered around the physiology of the 45+ body. We raise it one stage at a time on the CORE framework — the way you'd put up a house that lasts.
C → O → R → E, then round again. Not a 90-day fix — a cycle you keep running, so the results keep holding.
How the build runs
Join the live cohort
Every week for six weeks you meet Coach Mike live on Zoom for an 80-minute coaching call. Miss one? Every session is in your portal within 24 hours.
Work the weekly stage
Each week you get one CORE pillar, a workbook and movement sessions — around 90 minutes of training a week, split however suits you, on top of your live coaching call.
Leave with your plan
You finish with results in the mirror and your personal R.E.A.L. Action Plan — a 90-day roadmap so progress keeps going long after week six.
Why CBAS holds when everything else cracked
The old drawings
- Generic plans drawn for 30-year-olds
- Punishing workouts that flare old injuries
- A PDF and a "good luck" — no real support
- Results that vanish the moment you stop
The CBAS drawings
- Built around 45+ hormones, recovery & metabolism
- Joint-protective movement that builds you up
- Live weekly coaching & a real community
- A 90-day R.E.A.L. plan so it actually lasts
Is this build right for you?
Break ground if…
- You're 45+ and your body stopped responding the way it used to
- Weight — especially round the middle — won't shift
- Your energy is unreliable and joints or back ache
- You want expert guidance and accountability, not another app
- You're ready to commit to six structured weeks
Hold off if…
- You want a 30-day quick-fix transformation
- You won't do the weekly tasks between sessions
- You want self-paced content with no live coaching
What we work on, week by week
| Area | What the six weeks are built to change |
|---|---|
| Body composition | A sustainable approach to shifting weight around the middle |
| Daily energy | Habits and recovery structured to stop the afternoon dip |
| Pain and stiffness | Joint-protective movement that builds capacity without flare-ups |
| Nutrition | A personalised approach that fits your actual life |
| Movement | A progressive plan you can keep going after week six |
| Long term | Your personal 90-day R.E.A.L. Action Plan |
This is a coaching programme, not a guaranteed outcome. What you get from it depends on your starting point, your health history and how consistently you do the work. It is not a substitute for medical advice.

The founding twelve · doors close 31 August 2026
This is the first time I've run CBAS as a group. Twelve people, and I want it to be the best six weeks I've ever delivered. So the founding price is £297 — half what it will be from October. In return I'm asking for three things: your honest feedback each week, your before-and-after measurements, and a testimonial at the end if it works. That's the whole deal. I'll only ever do it once.
Enrolment is strictly limited to twelve. When it's full, the next intake is October at £597.
£597 from October

GUARANTEE
Do the work, or don't pay for it
Come to the sessions. Do the weekly tasks. If you get to the end of the six weeks and you don't feel materially better than you do today, email me and I'll refund you in full.
I'm not asking you to trust the programme. I'm asking you to turn up — and if I don't hold up my end, you shouldn't be out of pocket.

HENDRICKS
Coach Mike Hendricks
For 30+ years I've worked with over-45 bodies — and I got tired of watching people get handed programmes drawn for someone half their age. So I built the one I wished existed.
I'm the founder of Hendricks Holistic Fitness, host of the Real Longevity Podcast, and the creator of the R.E.A.L. and CORE frameworks that power CBAS. This isn't theory — it's what actually works for real people with real lives, real injuries and real schedules.
Questions before you break ground
I haven't exercised in years. Is this still for me?
What if I miss a live session?
I have an injury or health condition — can I still join?
How much time does it take each week?
What platform is it delivered on?
What happens after the six weeks?
What's the refund policy?
Can I talk to Mike before I commit?
The next six weeks will pass either way.
The only question is what you'll have built by the end of them. Spend them on the plan that hasn't worked — or break ground on a body that's lighter, stronger and finally out of pain, with a coach and a blueprint drawn for your age. Twelve places. Doors close 31 August 2026.
