On Top Coaching

Rounding out our first growth phase with Jenn Cooke and could not be more pleased with the results!

As much as the last 18 weeks have been about growing, they have also been about improving training, improving relationship with scale, and really helping her learn what this next journey of bodybuilding is all about!

Coming from a powerlifting background, Jenn is strong AF 🤯 but for bodybuilding… We don’t necessarily need to be strong. We need to train well and be able to connect with certain muscle groups. We also have a big goal of creating a competitive shape for Figure. which means we needed to bring up the lower body quite a bit.
Jenn has been a rockstar and has caught everything I’ve thrown at her. Even almost 3 leg days a week….🥵🙈

A couple things Jen did really well this season that has helped her progress:
👉🏼 planning ahead. Both with meals and her time.
👉🏼 time management she works full-time and has still made her training and bodybuilding progress a priority!
👉🏼 we’ve been able to let go of some of that “scale fear” I am taking pictures each week and leaning into training progress as well as general education on how the body works. She’s less apprehensive about being the heaviest she’s ever been because she knows that’s what she needs right now. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏼

We’ve got some cleaning up to do, but I am really excited because we’re already selecting some 2027 show shows and this girl is going to be dangerous 😈😈

Rule of thumb: no more than 3 rest days in a row.
My personal preference is 2 on 1 off. This allows me to recover best and be fresh to train my best. 💯

Everyone’s different and have different recovery ranges. Finding what TRULY works for you (not just what you suffer through and “make work.”) can help so much with TRUE GROWTH.

Analogy of used on a call this week:
You want to build a house?
But you’re constantly breaking the house down…?? When will it get BUILT??
Training days = break down muscle
Rest days = BUILD UP
Revolutionary concept I know 🤯🤯

But it’s true. And proven.

When I started taking MORE rest days, I started growing BETTER!!
This week was a poor reflection of that 😂🫣

Yes there are supplements.
Yes there are mindset tools
Yes there are “tricks”
Yes there is different food sourcing….

But ultimately TIME is what you need to get through.
Sometimes 6 weeks. Sometimes 12 +.
Everyone is different. And depending on the type of prep you had, duration of prep, how low your calories were etc- will be a factor in how HARD reversing hits you 💖💖


My DMs are always open. This isn’t an easy time and who can better relate than other competitors? (Ones who’s succeeded and failed 🙈🙈)
