Thanks Coach!!! I absolutely loved the process. I have to say after having two kiddos who are now age three and five as well as recovering from broken ankle surgery which involved a plate and six screws I thought my body building days were long over.

However, during the past 6 years between my last pro show and returning to the stage this year…I would judge body building shows and know that there was a little piece of my heart for bodybuilding missing. At one show I was talking to another judge that had just started working with a new coach. After this conversation I knew I had to reach out to Peter Fitschen and see if his coaching style could help me return to the pro bodybuilding stage.

After about an hour and a half conversation over the phone I knew his coaching practices would align well with how I liked to train. I’ve had bad experiences in the past where I only took a few months to cut weight. I was doing so many two a days, fasted cardio as well as having lists of foods that we’re okay to eat and once that we’re not. This caused some unhealthy relationships with foods and Fitness. I am a Gym Owner, Nutrition Club owner, personal trainer and health and wellness coach, and I new that these past ways of prepping for a show we’re not going to work well for me as I like to practice what I preach and this is not how I coach my clients.

If you’ve tried the old school way of bodybuilding and are looking for some change I would highly suggest Peter as your prep coach!!

He took the time to get to know me, my past methods as well as suggest new methods. I didn’t have a list of foods that I could not eat but instead had set macros with my proteins, fats and carbs that I would push to reach everyday with five to six meals. As well as have one higher day per week for calories, as well as some rest days. I never felt starved or like I wasn’t getting enough food. I didn’t do much cardio until it was needed at the end and even at that it was never over an hour and started out with just 20 minutes.

Peter would have me check in twice a week and closer to my shows three times per week. He always responding very timely and his communication was definitely not copy and paste. He paid attention to my struggles both physically and mentally and has been my best prep coach to date!

Oh yeah, his wife Amy Fitschen is pretty spectacular too. At the IPE world pro show this year she did my tan, helped with gluing ny suit and pumping up before hitting the stage… And even convinced Peter to let me have another candy bar behind stage ♥️

Thank you @Fitbody Physique, you both are amazing and I can’t wait to work with you for years to come
