The Temple Builder Framework

“Do you not know that your body is a temple?” — 1 Corinthians 6:19

Most programs treat symptoms: the fatigue, the weight, the fog. The Temple Builder Framework rebuilds the foundation underneath them — because when your health is in order, everything built on top of it stands stronger: your family, your work, your faith, your joy.

Restore the Engine

Blood-sugar stability, mitochondrial health, sleep architecture, and hormone balance — measured, not guessed. Your energy returns first.

Raise the Structure

Strength training and protein-anchored nutrition designed for durable muscle and a resilient frame — the load-bearing walls of a long life.

Light the Sanctuary

Purpose, presence, and practice. Flourishing is metabolic and spiritual — we train both, because a temple is built to be lived in, and the people around you learn most from a life lived well.

The Programs

Four ways to build.

Coach Bill Ellis is a Board Certified Master Mental Health Coach, NASM Certified Nutrition Coach, and Certified Independent Trilivy Coach. Every coaching engagement begins with a free conversation, and coaching is open to men and women.

Trilivy Metabolic Health System

$0 USD / month coaching · program investment varies by selected nutrition plan

More than weight loss. A complete metabolic health system. The Trilivy Metabolic Health System guides you through three progressive phases designed to improve your metabolic health and create lasting results.

RESET — Reverse metabolic dysfunction, reduce visceral fat, preserve lean muscle, and build the foundation for healthy, sustainable weight loss.
REFINE — Improve metabolic flexibility, refine body composition, and strengthen the habits that support long-term success.
RENEW — Optimize metabolic health, increase vitality, and maintain your transformation for years to come.

This is the same science-backed system I used to reset my own metabolic health after years of struggling with my weight. Over the past five years, I’ve continued building on that foundation by following these principles to maintain a 90-pound weight loss while improving my strength, energy, and overall health.

With personalized coaching, targeted nutrition, and proven healthy habits, you’ll gain more than a lower number on the scale. You’ll build a healthier metabolism and a lifestyle you can sustain.

  • Three-phase metabolic health system
  • Science-backed nutrition and healthy habit coaching
  • Healthy weight loss while helping preserve lean muscle
  • Bill’s personal coaching and accountability included at no additional charge

Bill’s Story

I signed up for a diet. I received a new life.

Bill Ellis before and after: seated on a couch in December 2020 at 265 pounds, and standing in a home gym in August 2024 at 183 pounds.
December 2020 — 265 lbs · August 2024 — 183 lbs Results vary. Average weight loss for Reset & 1 Plan® clients is 12 pounds in 12 weeks.

In December 2020, after nine months of online-only church, I saw photos from our first in-person gathering — and I knew I needed to do something. I’d topped out at 260 pounds. My doctor said I was pre-diabetic. I was on medication for cholesterol and blood pressure. Everything hurt.

A couple from our Bible study introduced my wife Wendy and me to the health program I now coach. In 7 weeks I lost 37 pounds; in six months, 65 — and I went on to lose 90 pounds in all, keeping it off ever since. But the weight was the least of it. My mindset about food and health transformed, I have more energy than I’ve had in 30 years, I sleep better, and I enjoy life and the people I share it with more than I thought possible.

I didn’t find a perfect program. I finally stopped running from the truth and built toward something real — and over the next five years that became the Temple Builder Framework, along with the Father Figure Framework I now coach men through. I tell the whole story in The Father Figure Blueprint and in my books on Amazon.

Common Questions

Asked by people who are done feeling this way.

How do I fix a slow metabolism after 40?

Metabolism after 40 responds to consistent fundamentals: protein-anchored nutrition, stable blood sugar, strength training to preserve muscle, quality sleep, and stress management. My coaching builds these habits sustainably — no crash protocols. This is educational information, not medical advice.

What does a metabolic health coach do?

A metabolic health coach helps you build the daily nutrition, movement, sleep, and mindset habits that support healthy metabolic function — with a personalized plan and real accountability. Coaches educate and support; we do not diagnose or treat medical conditions.

Do I still need nutrition coaching if I’m taking a GLP-1 medication?

GLP-1 medications reduce appetite, but they don’t teach the eating, strength, and habit patterns that protect your muscle and make results last. Nutritional and metabolic support alongside a GLP-1 helps preserve lean mass and build habits for life beyond the prescription. Always follow your prescribing physician’s guidance.

What is faith-based health coaching?

Faith-based health coaching integrates Christian faith with evidence-based nutrition and habit science — treating the body as a temple and health as stewardship. It addresses the whole person: body, mind, and purpose.

Why do I keep gaining weight even though I’m stressed and barely eating?

Chronic stress elevates cortisol, which drives fat storage, disrupts sleep, and triggers cravings — a pattern that can cause weight gain even when meals are small or skipped. Addressing the stress-metabolism connection is often the missing piece. If you have concerns about your health, consult your physician.
