Seeking a coach for my first competition, Steve came highly recommended. I made the 3.5-hour drive to meet him and left more informed and excited to begin working towards my goal. Steve was very professional and knowledgeable. He spent time inquiring about and listening to what I hoped to achieve. Then he designed a meal plan and training program specifically for my goals. Steve assured me if I ever questioned the plan, he would be happy to provide the reasoning for his recommendations.

Throughout the process, he kept his word and promptly answered numerous questions without complaint. Despite hearing about other competitors eating and training much differently from myself, I trusted Steve and adhered strictly to our plan. I traveled several times to Louisville for in person progress assessments, but most everything else was easily accomplished from a distance. Through our partnership, I began to see not just physical improvement, but personal growth and development as well. Steve was encouraging when I needed it, but always honest when it came to what to expect on competition day.

After 9 months of working with Steve, I was fortunate to win both my height class and the overall award for my division. It was an incredible journey and wonderful sense of accomplishment. I appreciate Steve's investment in me and look forward to his continued guidance in future competitions.
