Muscle Intelligence™ – Where Strength Meets Longevity
At Muscle Intelligence™ we believe the world’s greatest problems are
solved by strong, healthy and confident men. Our mission is to raise
the physical standard for men in their prime by helping aspirational
men optimize their health so they can live longer, lead better and
perform every day at their best. We work with
men who know they don’t want to die with fire still burning inside;
men who seek challenge, discipline and the pursuit of personal
excellence, and who understand that the path to self‑discipline,
confidence and leadership is found through the body.
Our Philosophy: The Six Pillars of a Lean, Healthy and Muscular Body
The Muscle Intelligence™ philosophy recognizes that your body is an
ecosystem. To take control of how it looks on the outside and how
it functions on the inside, you must become aware of the external
signals that shape your internal state. We have
identified six primary signals – our Six Pillars of a Lean,
Healthy and Muscular Body – that can be influenced every day to
cultivate strength, longevity and performance.
- Move. Movement is life; your body becomes a reflection of how you
move. The way you do anything is the way you do everything.
- Breathe. Breathing is the gateway to the mind and body and
remains the most valuable performance enhancer you are probably not
doing.
- Think. Our thoughts can become our greatest ally or our biggest
adversary. Taking control of your thoughts, beliefs and personal
identity allows you to lead from within.
- Sleep. High‑quality, rejuvenating sleep has the single biggest
impact on human performance.
- Eat. Food is a signal that creates an internal response – what you
eat matters, and the state of the body it enters matters equally
as much.
- Environment. Your environment – light, air, EMF, sound, people –
sends signals to your body just like food does.
Shaping these signals allows you to thrive.
The Muscle Intelligence Program – A Personalized, Science‑Backed System for Men Over 35
Our flagship program is designed specifically for men aged 35 and
beyond who want to lose weight, build muscle and reclaim their
masculine peak. It is a science‑backed system that has helped
thousands of men achieve peak fitness after 35. Instead
of relying on fads or one‑size‑fits‑all workouts, we create a
personalized training and nutrition plan that accounts for your
fitness level, goals and lifestyle. Each program
includes:
- Custom training protocols designed for maximum efficiency,
helping you build muscle, burn fat and get stronger fast.
- Personalized nutrition strategies with meal plans and shopping
lists, ensuring you know how to fuel your body for results.
- Weekly check‑ins with your coach to provide feedback and
adjustments, keeping you accountable and on track.
- 24/7 access to the Muscle Intelligence Network, connecting you
with expert coaches and high‑performing peers.
To ensure each man receives the attention he deserves, our intakes are
capped and run a few times per year. The program
also integrates Ten Core Pillars – training, nutrition, mindset,
mobility, cardio, sleep management, stress management, supplements,
sex/hormones and lifestyle – to deliver a holistic
transformation.
World‑Class Coaching and Expertise
Muscle Intelligence is led by Ben Pakulski, an IFBB professional
bodybuilder and former Mr. Canada who has dominated the world of
muscle building for more than two decades. Ben now
dedicates his career to providing intelligent muscle building and
mindset mastery through his MI40 gym, online coaching, mentorship,
Muscle Camp workshops and the popular Muscle Intelligence Podcast.
He has helped hundreds of thousands of men and women change their
bodies and lives, and his passion for empowering
others led him to create the world’s foremost muscle building and body
transformation educational brand.
Ben’s story is inspirational. A former obese child who grew up in a
family with little knowledge of nutrition or fitness, he used his
struggles to fuel an unwavering drive for self‑improvement.
He became a professional bodybuilder, placing in the top ten at the
Arnold Classic and Mr. Olympia. Today he channels
that experience into coaching others, believing that
mindfulness, smart work and purpose are the keys to lasting
transformation.
Ben is joined by a world‑class team of coaches, including head coach
Gavin Attorre—a veteran strength and conditioning coach who has
worked with professional sports teams and holds the coveted Poliquin
Level 5 award—and Steve Hughes, an elite
trainer with expertise in muscle building, fat loss, mobility and
injury prevention. Together, our team guides
clients through every step of their journey, providing the knowledge,
accountability and support needed for success.
What Makes Muscle Intelligence Unique?
Muscle Intelligence isn’t just another fitness program. It is a
philosophy rooted in science, personal responsibility and
community. We believe in training the body and mind concurrently,
harnessing a masculine drive to thrive so we can lead ourselves and
those we love. By focusing on external
signals—movement, breath, thought, sleep, nutrition and environment—we
unlock deep internal transformation. Our holistic
programs are data‑driven, not dogma; we address hormones, stress and
lifestyle factors to ensure sustainable results without sacrificing
your career or family life. And because we limit
enrollment and offer ongoing support, each man benefits from
personalized attention and an empowering brotherhood of like‑minded
high performers.
