Hi, I'm Josh. I help growth-minded Asian guys with fitness and dating!
As a short guy (I'm 5'6"), I used to struggle with my confidence until I started working on myself via lifting, going out, and taking action.
Over the past 11 years, I've dedicated my life to fitness, earning my natural pro card after competing in 11 bodybuilding shows.
I'm passionate about sharing what I learned through my services (coaching, retreats) where I help guys unlock their true potential.
Additionally, I bring a decade of dating experience from various cities across the US, including three serious long-term relationships.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I know this retreat is for me?
This retreat is designed for people who are looking to level up their fitness, dating, and social life in a streamlined fashion that will actually produce long-lasting results.
Oftentimes in self-improvement, it can be difficult to get feedback or see results when you're taking action alone. For example, if you're trying to improve your dating life but all of your friends already have girlfriends, then it's very difficult to get immediate feedback on what you can improve.
This retreat will help you start seeing immediate results in every aspect of your self-improvement journey: fitness, style, dating, and social circle.
What is the purpose of this retreat?
The purpose of this retreat is to bring together highly motivated, like-minded individuals and serve as a self-improvement incubator. Just like in the start-up world, incubators are useful for streamlining various aspects of growing a business, I've designed this Chang Nation retreat to do just that but for your self-improvement journey.
From my experience moving into a creator house in Vegas to hosting my first Chang Nation retreat, I've witnessed firsthand the power of bringing together growth-minded guys and just how contagious motivation is in this environment. From taking action day in and day out to getting feedback on improvement areas to even bouncing business ideas off each other, the potential is limitless in these incubator type environments.
Will this retreat help my dating life?
Definitely! As someone who used to personally struggle a lot of with dating despite having good stats (solid career, good physique, decent social skills). The retreat will help your dating life in the following ways:
Optimize your online dating profile - (multiple photoshoots + Josh will edit your photos and help you update your online dating profile)
Increase confidence - by taking action during retreat just by showing up, you will push yourself and develop confidence in yourself that you didn't know existed. This will be critical for helping you do well when you get dates with your new profile.
Become more interesting - one of the reasons I personally failed when I was dating was because I would just show up on dates and talk about my job... well it wasn't until I met other cool Asian guys when I developed hobbies I'm passionate about YouTube, hosting events, and table tennis. Once you have hobbies outside of work, you will become a more interesting guy and this will show itself on dates in a positive light.
What happens after the retreat?
The purpose of this retreat is to help you form lifelong friendships with your cohort members and myself. After you join a Chang Nation Retreat, you will become part of the Network of Changs.
The goal is to have you keep in touch with the cohort via our group WhatsApp so that you will have a buddy you can reach out to if you're traveling to another city, need some advice on anything, or even if you're trying to switch careers or start a new side gig.
There's a lot of power in relationships, networking, and mentorship which is why I'm a firm believer of this retreat and very proud of the network I've built out.
Additionally, I will connect you with relevant people who live in your city, similar passions, basically anyone who I think would be a good fit to talk to from my personal network which I have built up over the past few years living in Vegas (a hub for networking since people fly in all the time). For example, one ex-retreat member just moved to North Carolina for his job and I was able to connect him with someone who also lives near him.
How much does this retreat cost?
The cost of the retreat will be discussed on the consultation call if your application is accepted. We offer a good deal on the price since we are bundling a lot of different activities together: housing, photoshoots, going out, fitness coaching.
Are flights & food included?
You will have to book your own flight to / from Vegas; food is provided at this retreat (lunch, dinner, snacks).
If you need to go to the store to pick up anything else, we will have cars to take people to the store.
How is this different from other retreats or immersion programs?
This retreat gives you a holistic approach to improving yourself, through not only learning the fundamentals of handling yourself in a high-energy, social situations, but also learning how to develop discipline in maintaining a great schedule, diet, and physique. You will also be able to apply the things you learned seamlessly back home with the new photos you will have from the photoshoot and continue your development there.
How does this differ from a dating bootcamp?
Dating bootcamps typically focus only on in-person cold approach and helping you "attract" women. However, we believe in a holistic approach to dating and self-development in general so while we will go out at night and do encourage guys to talk to girls, our focus is on leveraging these activities to level up your self-confidence. We want our clients to develop social mastery and genuine self-confidence that transcends dating into life in general.
Will this retreat help me if I currently get no matches on online dating?
Definitely! The main reason people don't get online dating matches is because they don't present themselves to their full potential on these dating apps.
The most common reason for this is lack of good pictures. You will participate in multiple photoshoots during the retreat taken by Josh who has a lot of experience with online dating and eventually found his girlfriend from.
Josh will also help you edit your photos and give you guidance for your online dating profile to formulate a game plan to maximizes your chance of success on dating apps.
For example, in our December 2023 retreat, Josh helped one of the members who has never gone on a date before in his life immediately get 30+ matches in just one week of downloading dating apps for the first time!
Why do I need to fill out a form to be put on the waiting list?
In any type of cohort environment, group composition is absolutely critical. We want to ensure that we only accept members that we believe will contribute to the group and also benefit from this experience.
A lot of the value of the retreat is in the quality of members we bring together which is why we recommend filling out the retreat with as much detail as possible.
My number one goal for this retreat is to create an experience that will have lifelong impact on people's lives whether that's helping you discover self-confidence in yourself or meeting cool guys that you connect well with.
What this means is, it's very important for us to vet the members thoroughly so make sure to fill out the application with as much as details as possible.
Should I tell my family and friends I'm going?
Completely up to you; however, I'm someone who believes in "let your results do the talking". Self-improvement is one of those things that everyone actually practices (e.g. getting a better job, wanting to look better) but is taboo to talk about. Just like the fight club motto, I'd recommend not advertising that you're attending (unless you want some external accountability).
After you go through the retreat and leave a more optimized version of yourself, people in your life will see the visual difference in how you look, act, and your overall vibe.
What should I do to prepare for the retreat?
As soon as you're accepted into the cohort, you will start working with Josh regarding fitness & style and will be in constant communication with him. He will also add you into a WhatsApp group with Josh and his assistant coach so you can ask any questions you have.
You will be provided a packing list, along with retreat guide on what to expect, ways to prepare, and other suggested action items. As long as you follow the recommended action items and show up with a positive, open-minded attitude, then you will be good!
Can I get a more in-depth view of what to expect for the retreat?
Absolutely, feel free to speak to me more about the retreat by click the link HERE and I can answer any questions you have.
What if I have a last minute emergency and can't make it?
If you can not make it to the dates that we have reserved for the program, we can schedule you on our list for our next program.
