If you’re reading this, just know—you’re in the right place, and you’re here for a reason.

My name is Coach Joe Wachs, and I’ve been in the fitness industry for over 10 years.

I grew up with a highly athletic background, playing multiple sports year-round and always pushing myself to be the best at whatever I did. But despite being active, I struggled deeply with my body image. I had a fast metabolism, couldn’t build muscle easily, and constantly felt insecure about the way I looked.

That insecurity followed me for years.

When I finally stepped away from sports and committed fully to understanding my body, nutrition, and training, everything changed. I rebuilt my confidence, mastered fitness as a whole, got into the best shape of my life—and most importantly, learned how to maintain it sustainably.

I went on to compete as a bodybuilder for over eight years, facing some of the best competition in the world and working with major sponsors along the way. During that time, I was coached and mentored by some of the most elite trainers and minds in the industry, learning what it truly takes to operate at the highest level—not just physically, but mentally and spiritually.
That experience taught me how to simplify the process and help others achieve real, lasting results without burning out or starting over every year.

That’s how BodyByWachs.com was born.

I’m a devoted Christian, and my mission is simple: to impact and change as many lives as possible. Helping others overcome the same struggles I once faced—physically, mentally, and emotionally—is my calling.

God is good. Always.
