Applications are reviewed personally. Suitable applicants are invited to a coaching consultation.
The Problem
You train hard. Your physique should show it.
You can spend years training hard without ever building the physique you originally wanted. Progress stalls, you're unsure whether to build or cut, weak points refuse to improve, and you start questioning whether your programme is actually taking you anywhere. The effort is there — but your physique still doesn't reflect it.
Training without direction
You're putting in effort without following a progression system built around your individual physique.
Unsure whether to build or cut
You keep moving between gaining and dieting without a clear long-term physique strategy.
Weak points aren't improving
Your programme treats every muscle equally even though your physique doesn't need every muscle prioritised equally.
Your physique doesn't reflect your effort
You may be stronger or heavier, but your proportions, muscularity or body-fat level still aren't creating the aesthetic you want.
That's exactly what CoachedByGui was built to solve.
The GUI Method
A physique-first approach to training, nutrition and progression.
The GUI Method isn't about becoming as heavy as possible. It's about building the most muscular, proportionate and aesthetic version of your individual physique.

Before
CurrentAbout Gui
I've spent years building the physique I once wanted. Now I help other people build theirs.
I'm Gui Ribeiro, the coach behind CoachedByGui.
My interest in fitness developed beyond simply becoming stronger. I became fascinated with how training, nutrition, exercise selection and muscular proportions could completely change the way a physique looks.
Years of experimenting with my own training, gaining and dieting phases, exercise selection and progression — combined with my academic background in Sport & Exercise Science — became the foundation of The GUI Method.
"Don't build my physique. Build the best version of yours."
