Today I'm joined by RNTer Vivek, who recently hit a checkpoint with us. When Vivek turned 40, he decided enough was enough. Having watched a number of his friends go through the RNT journey and absolutely crush it, he finally took the plunge at the start of 2026. He's a father of two, holds a global role in a VC group, and is based out in Texas. For Vivek, the challenges were always the same: a relentless work schedule spanning every time zone, travelling two weeks of every month, and two young kids to balance it all around. This is a brilliant insight into what it looks like to go from having no structure with your health and fitness to fully dialling in, and using the physical transformation as a vehicle to improve every other aspect of your life. Vivek is down 26 lbs, in the best shape of his life, and looking forward to a productive muscle-building phase with us. So let's dive in.
