Hear it from them.

Real clients, in their own words.

Your body is only the beginning.

You came here because you want to change something about yourself.

  • Maybe it's your weight.
  • Maybe it's your confidence.
  • Maybe it's your health.
  • Maybe you're tired of breaking promises to yourself.

The person you're capable of becoming is going to require different decisions, different habits, and different standards than the person you are today. That's what we build at BYB.

Vices. Habits. Nonnegotiables.

  • Vices

    What's holding you back?

    Identify the behaviors, excuses, and patterns keeping you from the life you want. You can't build a better life while continuing to feed the same habits that destroyed your progress.

  • Habits

    What are you building daily?

    Develop consistent actions that strengthen your body, sharpen your mindset, and improve your life. Your life is a reflection of what you consistently do, not what you occasionally intend to do.

  • Nonnegotiables

    What do you refuse to compromise?

    Establish personal standards that don't disappear when life gets difficult. You don't have to feel motivated every day. You do have to learn how to keep your word to yourself.

You don't rise to the level of your goals by wishing for them. You make progress by consistently executing the habits and standards that support them.

What's included in our coaching?

Our coaching is personalized to each client's goals, experience, schedule, lifestyle, and level of commitment. Specific features depend on the program selected.

Customized workout programs

No generic workouts copied and pasted for every client. Your training is built around your goals, fitness experience, available equipment, physical limitations, schedule, and desired results.

Whether you're a complete beginner or experienced in the gym, we create a structured program designed to challenge you and help you progress.

Customized nutrition coaching

We help eliminate the confusion surrounding nutrition. Depending on your program, this may include:

  • Personalized calorie and macronutrient targets
  • Customized meal plans and nutritional structure
  • Food selections based on your preferences and lifestyle
  • Nutrition education and portion control
  • Progress-based adjustments
  • Guidance on building sustainable eating habits

Our goal isn't to keep you dependent on another diet. It's to teach you how to eat with purpose and develop control over your nutrition.

Weekly accountability check-ins

Accountability is one of the foundations of BYB. Clients complete weekly check-ins to evaluate their progress, consistency, challenges, and commitment. Check-ins may include weight tracking, progress photos, workout adherence, nutrition tracking, and weekly reflections.

We don't simply ask whether you lost weight. We want to understand whether you're becoming more disciplined, consistent, and accountable.

One-on-one coaching calls Select programs

These calls focus on reviewing progress, overcoming obstacles, developing stronger habits, establishing standards, and making necessary adjustments. Frequency is determined by the coaching tier.

We're not only discussing your workouts. We're discussing what's happening in your life that's affecting your ability to follow through.

Habit development and personal nonnegotiables

We work with clients to identify the habits and behaviors preventing them from moving forward, and establish personal nonnegotiables designed around their responsibilities, goals, and lifestyle.

We help clients build consistency in training, nutrition, sleep, time management, personal responsibility, and daily routines.

Exclusive BYB community

Clients gain access to our private Build Your Breakthrough community. A place surrounded by people working toward similar goals, encouraging one another, sharing victories, and holding each other accountable.

Your environment matters. The people you surround yourself with matter.

Supplementation guidance Select programs

We provide personalized supplementation recommendations based on your goals, training, nutrition, and individual needs.

Progress tracking through Trainerize

Clients receive access to our coaching platform, where they can follow their workouts, track progress, and manage their training. We also use MyFitnessPal for nutrition tracking, helping clients build awareness and accountability around what they're consuming.

We're not for everybody. And that's intentional.

Build Your Breakthrough is for men and women who are tired of being disappointed in themselves and are genuinely ready to make a change. You don't need to be athletic, motivated, or experienced. You need to have reached the point where staying the same is no longer acceptable.

  • A busy father who has spent years providing for everyone else while neglecting his own health.
  • A mother who puts her family's needs ahead of her own and wants to regain her confidence, strength, and identity.
  • An entrepreneur or professional who excels in business but lacks structure and discipline with their health.
  • Someone who has gained weight, lost confidence, and no longer recognizes the person in the mirror.
  • Someone who starts diets and workouts but quits when motivation disappears.
  • Someone struggling with destructive habits, poor routines, and a lack of accountability.
  • Someone who wants to become a stronger spouse, parent, leader, and example.
  • Someone who knows they're capable of more but doesn't know how to create lasting change.

We welcome beginners. We welcome people who have failed repeatedly. We welcome people who are starting over. But you do need to be willing to take responsibility, accept coaching, and put in the work.

Who BYB is not for. BYB isn't for people looking for shortcuts, quick fixes, or someone else to do the work for them. It's not for people who expect results without changing their behavior, or who only want to be told what they want to hear. We can give you the structure, the education, and the accountability. We cannot do your work for you.

What makes Build Your Breakthrough different?

  1. We don't just train your body. We challenge your standards.

    At BYB, we also address the behaviors, excuses, self-discipline, and daily decisions that determine whether someone succeeds long term.

  2. We coach from experience, not just theory.

    I've personally experienced major weight loss and rebuilding my life after destructive habits and decisions. I understand the frustration of wanting change but struggling to follow through.

  3. Accountability isn't an optional extra.

    We're not here to shame someone for having a difficult week. We're here to help them understand what happened, correct it, and keep moving forward. Accountability isn't punishment. It's a standard.

  4. We focus on the person you're becoming.

    Measure a transformation by the confidence you develop, the commitments you keep, the habits you improve, and the example you set. For clients who value spiritual growth, faith and purpose can be part of that journey too.

  5. We build a community, not just a client list.

    Accountability grows stronger when you're surrounded by people who share your standards.

  6. We don't believe in temporary motivation.

    We aren't building motivation-dependent people. We're building disciplined people.

David Arriola, founder of Build Your Breakthrough

Meet David Arriola

Coach. Entrepreneur. Husband. Father. A man who had to rebuild himself.

I'm the founder of Build Your Breakthrough and M8 Nutrition & Supplements. I didn't create this program because I learned how to write workout plans or wanted to become another fitness influencer. I created it because I've lived what it means to need a breakthrough.

I've battled destructive habits, addictions, self-doubt, inconsistency, and the consequences of my own decisions. Through faith, discipline, physical training, better habits, and taking accountability, I began rebuilding my life from the inside out.

My fitness journey took me from 300 pounds to 180 pounds. But the biggest transformation wasn't my body. It was my mindset, my standards, and the way I lived my life.

I'm not here to simply count your reps, tell you what to eat, or give you another temporary challenge. I'm here to help you build the discipline, confidence, self-respect, and daily standards to transform your life.

Questions

The Program

What is Build Your Breakthrough?

Build Your Breakthrough is more than an online fitness program. It's a complete self-transformation coaching experience built around three principles: Vices. Habits. Nonnegotiables.

We help you transform physically, mentally, and spiritually through customized workouts, personalized nutrition, accountability, discipline, and daily habits.

We're not just helping you build a better body. We're helping you become a better version of yourself.

Is this program for beginners?

Absolutely. Whether you've never stepped foot in a gym or you've been training for years, your program is built specifically for you.

Your workouts and nutrition are customized around your current fitness level, goals, experience, schedule, and lifestyle.

You don't need to be in shape to start. You need to be willing to start.

What makes Build Your Breakthrough different from other online coaching programs?

Most coaching programs focus on workouts and calories. We focus on the person behind the transformation.

We address the habits, excuses, lack of discipline, and destructive patterns that have been holding you back.

We provide structure, accountability, coaching, and a community that wants to see you win.

Our goal isn't to make you dependent on a coach forever. It's to teach you the discipline and habits necessary to maintain your results for life.

What if I've tried multiple diets or workout programs and failed?

Then it's time to change your approach.

The problem isn't always a lack of information. Sometimes it's a lack of structure, consistency, accountability, and follow-through. That's exactly what Build Your Breakthrough is designed to address.

We're going to help you identify what's been holding you back, develop better habits, and build a system that supports lasting change.

Your past doesn't have to dictate your future.

One year from now, you'll have results or another year of excuses.

We're not promising this will be easy, or fast. We're offering structure, professional guidance, accountability, and an opportunity to change the direction of your life.

A few minutes. Your answers are only seen by David.
