Contest prep is our highest-touch, most demanding service — for people ready to approach competing seriously. Training, nutrition, peaking, and posing, managed start to stage. This is by application: we take on athletes when the goal, timeline, health, expectations and available support make a responsible prep possible.
Contest prep is led by Meredith Parry — Bachelor of Kinesiology (BKin), Certified Personal Trainer (CPT), and Certified Nutrition Coach (CNC); a bikini competitor who has competed at the Toronto Pro and coached Holly Moroz to a pro card.

When discussing whether someone is ready to compete, the priority is clear:
“I would want to make sure that your relationship with food, overall health, and well-being are properly supported.”— Meredith Parry
01 · Before prep
Clarify expectations, timeline, health, and whether your relationship with food is supported well enough for the demands ahead.
02 · During prep
Training, posing, recovery, nutrition, and honest adjustments stay connected from the first phase through peak week.
03 · After the show
Prep should include a plan for the person who comes home from the show. Reverse dieting — a structured return toward a sustainable amount of food, training and daily routine after the show — and continued support belong in the process.
Talk with Meredith about your goal, timeline, and readiness for the demands of prep.
★★★★★Meredith is an amazing coach. I've been working with her for over a year. She was incredible during my prep and helped me obtain a pro card and has been so supportive in my reverse post competition.

Working with Meredith was a fantastic experience all around. She was always communicating with me, asking for feedback and super helpful when I needed guidance. She was able to make changes to my program on the fly and gave me options to switch things up. I appreciated her honesty and enthusiasm with my journey and progress. She was the perfect stage mom on my show day.

Your posing affects how your conditioning is presented. Posing coaching is available as part of prep or on its own — mandatory poses, quarter turns and transitions, so you can present your work on stage with confidence.
Dial in every required pose for your division — angles, balance, and the details judges actually score.
Move between poses with control and confidence. No awkward pauses, no wasted seconds on stage.
Walk, smile, own it. Presence coaching for athletes who want to look like they belong up there — because they do.
We take on a limited number of prep athletes each season so every athlete gets the attention prep demands. The first step is a free consultation — think of it as a two-way interview. We'll talk timeline, division, history, and whether we're the right team to get you stage-ready.
