Norman Reffke – Founder of VMC & my honest journey back to true health

"I was my own first client."

I'm so glad you're here. Because this page is where I share my health journey with you openly, honestly, and without filters – exactly as it was.

Chapter 1 – The Moment That Changed Everything

For 35 years, sports and fitness shaped my daily life.
Discipline, routines, nutrition — I believed I had everything under control.

But in my early 50s, my body changed dramatically:

  • chronic exhaustion

  • declining performance

  • hormonal chaos

  • a body that no longer responded to training

  • legs that refused to build muscle

  • low libido

  • disrupted sleep and mental tension

 

Doctors found no clear answers.
Bloodwork was dismissed.
I was told to “get more rest.”

But inside, I knew something was deeply wrong.

It was the lowest point — and the beginning of my search for answers.

Chapter 2 – The Scientific Search for Answers

I began questioning everything.
And I went deep into:

  • biochemistry

  • hormone physiology

  • mitochondrial health & cellular energy

  • male sex hormones

  • stress physiology

  • nutrition & micronutrients

  • muscle physiology and aging

 

I learned something crucial:

The body doesn’t suddenly break down.
It whispers for years — and we ignore it.

The key discovery was my SHBG level — extremely high.
A protein that binds testosterone and makes it inactive.

That was the moment I realized:
My hormones had lost their balance.

Chapter 3 – The Turning Point

A combination of:

  • scientific insights

  • intelligent training

  • cyclical nutrition

  • daily micro-habits

  • nervous system regulation

  • targeted nutrient support

 

slowly began to shift my health.

The breakthrough:

My legs finally started building muscle again.

My body responded.
My energy returned.
My mental clarity came back.

For the first time in years, I felt like myself again.

Chapter 4 – The Birth of the VMC System

My mission became clear:

Turn my personal health crisis into a system that helps others.

That’s how the VMC Coaching System was born — built on 10 essential pillars:

  1. Mental clarity

  2. Hormone regulation

  3. Mitochondria & cellular energy

  4. Nutrition & nutrient cycles

  5. Detox & cellular cleansing

  6. Muscle building

  7. Metabolism & fat loss

  8. Sleep & recovery

  9. Digestion & gut health

  10. Prevention & healthy aging

 

What makes it unique:
It’s practical, scientifically grounded, and it simply works.

Chapter 5 – Why I Help Others Today

I don’t share my knowledge as someone preaching from above.
I share it as someone who:

  • hit rock bottom

  • received no real answers

  • battled self-doubt

  • and worked his way back step by step

 

I want to show you that transformation is possible — no matter where you are right now.

Chapter 6 – My Mission

“Health doesn’t have to be complicated.
It should be logical, understandable, and deeply felt.”

 

With VMC, I support people who:

  • feel tired every day

  • experience hormonal imbalance

  • don’t understand what their body is telling them

  • want their strength, energy, and confidence back

  • are ready for real, lasting change

 

I don’t give you just another plan.
I give you a system — and the mental clarity to apply it sustainably.

Chapter 7 – Who I Am Today

  • A man who has returned to his own body

  • A researcher by nature

  • A coach by conviction

  • A founder with a clear purpose

  • Someone who wants to spare you the long road he had to take
