"Working with Jacob has been an incredible experience. In six months, he helped me transform up to 194 lbs then down to a stage-ready 150 lbs for my first bodybuilding competition. Jacob’s expertise in form and exercise selection allowed me to make the most out of my genetics and physique, maximizing my gains every step of the way. What stood out the most was how much he genuinely cared about what I needed and wanted on a weekly basis, tailoring his guidance to ensure I was always on track. If you’re looking for a coach who is fully invested in your success, I couldn’t recommend Jacob more."

“When I applied for Built By Brinkz, I was in desperate need of structure and guidance. Jacob has brought me that and so much more over the last fifteen months we’ve worked together, adding size and symmetry to my frame over the course of an eight month bulk, then allowing me to reveal that hard earned muscle over a 7 month bodybuilding prep. In just over a years time, Jacob transformed my physique and mindset from one of an unsure novice to a confident and educated professional natural bodybuilder. Beyond the bodybuilding world, Jacob has helped to give my life much needed structure and helped to heal some of my past mental struggles with insecurity and disordered eating. I can’t recommend enough applying for Built By Brinkz. Jacob’s around the clock accessibility and coaching expertise is fit for anyone to achieve any goal they set their mind to!”

"My coaching experience with Jacob has without a doubt, been life changing. I've developed many new great habits and changes to my routines, not just related to working out but for my health, such as prioritizing sleep, rest and especially nutrition. Getting weekly check-ins on how I am doing mentally and physically keeps me in check with my goals and ensures good, proper form. This last year, I've made the most amount of progress for bodybuilding, with the help of Jacob."

"Man working with Jacob, has been life changing! He has helped me more than I ever could myself, I’ve tried other coaches in the past and also tried doing it on my on and nothing compares to his expertise! He has motivated, kept me in check, and held me accountable on all my actions! He definitely does care and is willing to help you out and not just bs you. I started with Jacob back in June of 25’ at 240lbs, now in March of 26’ I’m down to 185! I know it’s me in the gym doing the work but with his coaching, guidance, and advice it has given me results I never thought I could accomplish, I definitely feel I have a second shot at life because of him.”

"Working with Coach Brinkz has been an awesome experience! I thought I knew a lot about bodybuilding until I finally made the decision to work with a coach and I for sure made the right decision choosing Brinkz. You can tell as a client that he really cares about you, crafting custom meal plans tailored to the foods you like and elaborate workout programs that I still use. Choosing Brinkz was a great decision to start my bodybuilding career!"

-Dylan Hernandez

"My whole fitness journey, I had passion for the sport of bodybuilding, but never envisioned being a part of it. I lifted weights, dieted about 50% of the time, and never really took myself seriously. When I woke up one day and realized I wanted more, I reached out to Jacob to see if he’d be a good fit, and to see if I really had what it took to bring it to the next level. He laid everything out on Google Sheets, and it was super easy to understand. He helped me go from 159 lbs to 137 lbs in a short 14 week prep, leading me to a Natural Pro Card in my first show. Jacob genuinely changed my life for the better, and helped me develop habits that I still follow closely to this day. If you want a coach who cares about you as a person and a friend just as much as he wants to see you win"

-Tristan Robbins

"If you’re sick & tired of where you’re at, hire this guy. It’s a guaranteed improvement to your physique & overall fitness journey. He cares about his clients and has a great knowledge of bodybuilding."

-James Reynosa

"I started my journey into fitness when i was about 270lbs. I was able to slim down just a bit to the 250-260 area, but never more. Wasn’t the best looking, but still posted myself on social media, and one day got noticed by one of my favorite bodybuilders. From the first day that we’ve met, Jacob (The Brinkz) was always really kind, inspiring outgoing and understanding. I was nervous, he was this famous, signed, bodybuilder and I was still starting off. However, ever since I went under his teachings, life has been much brighter. He helped me accomplish something remarkable; lost weight, built muscle and pushing forward to accomplish my dreams of one day competing! I honestly can not think of a better coach/ role model than him, he really is one of a kind and I could never thank him enough for what he’s done for/to me."

-Juan Rodriguez

"Working with Coach Brinkz has truly shape-shifted my life and allowed me to turn into a new page in bodybuilding. I have new found interests and knowledge within my body that I didn’t know before; the amount of care and dedication that he puts into coaching me makes me feel as if i’m his #1 priority. Under his coaching, I started at about 230 LBS at the peak of my bulk and i’m going down to less than 170 LBS while retaining as much muscle as possible and it has been amazing. I am now extremely confident in my body and have a new found hobby in bodybuilding that I will take with me for the rest of my career!"

-Ramiz Qumseya
