CONTEST PREP COACHING
Bring your best physique to the stage.
Contest preparation is about far more than simply getting lean.
Training, nutrition, conditioning, recovery, posing and presentation all need to come together at the right time. Throughout the preparation, your progress needs to be assessed objectively, and adjustments made when required not simply because a calendar says they should be. My contest prep coaching combines decades of competitive bodybuilding experience with modern, evidence-informed coaching methods, tailored to you, your physique, and your
competition.

INDIVIDUAL PREPARATION
Your physique. Your category. Your prep.
No two competitors respond in exactly the same way.
Your preparation is structured around your starting condition, physique, category, training experience, lifestyle and competition date.
Throughout your prep, I assess how your physique responds and adjust training, nutrition, cardio, and other variables accordingly
The objective is not simply to reach a target bodyweight. It is to arrive on stage with the conditioning, muscularity, fullness and presentation appropriate to your physique and category.

EXPERIENCE THAT GOES BEYOND THE
SIDELINES
I've spent decades involved in bodybuilding and still train and compete at 64.
That means I understand contest preparation from both sides of the coaching relationship the planning and assessment required as a coach, and the physical and psychological demands the competitor experiences. My approach combines that practical experience with current, evidence-informed coaching, rather than relying on past methods.
