I'm Derek - natural bodybuilder, vegan trainer, 25 years under the bar. My wife Marcella runs the research. Together we built SFY: a 22-week strength system for plant-based adults who want to be strong, mobile, and capable in their 60s, 70s, and 80s - not shredded for Instagram.
What happens here:
🏋🏽♀️My weekly training breakdowns: one movement, one idea, what it actually does for your next 40 years
⏰Monthly live office hours: Bring your questions, your form checks, your excuses. I'll take all three.
✅A weekly check-in thread: Post your lifts. Somebody here will notice if you go quiet — that's the point.
🥕Real talk on plant-based eating: build the plate around lentils, tofu, tempeh, beans, and plenty of color. No gram-counting. No lectures.
Who this is for: People training with the SFY app, and people who train like they plan to be here in 40 years. If you've got an old injury, a full calendar, and zero interest in bro-science, you're in the right room.
