Team St.Jean Physiques

My experience with Connor as a bodybuilding coach was nothing short of exceptional. Connor takes an evidence and experience-based approach as a bodybuilding coach, piecing together how the research and
his own anecdotes can best fit with the individual he is coaching in front of him to maximize their experience and optimize progress.
I worked with Connor for a full offseason and prep. During an 18-month offseason I gained about 25lbs and looked the biggest and leanest I ever had at that bodyweight. He pushed me to work hard throughout
this process and helped me navigate through mental plateaus of gaining mass in an offseason which I had struggled with in the past. His attention to detail during the ensuing contest prep was over and beyond
fantastic. I felt motivated, looked after and placed my entire trust in Connor – as I’d recommend others should too if you want to maximize your prep. I followed the plan as instructed and brought a class-
winning physique to take the lightweight bodybuilding title back home along with best poser award. Connor carefully evaluates training programs, macronutrient targets and exercise execution to match
these variables with lifestyle factors of the athlete he is coaching, thus ensuring that all of the pieces of the puzzle fit together. He asked for videos of key exercises to provide advice on movement mechanics and
execution. Connor would problem solve to adjust exercises and the sequence of movements that would allow for better stimulus to be achieved. Of course, he also managed volume and training parameters
accordingly to optimize recovery and resource allocation toward making progress in weaker muscle areas. Connor analyzes physique updates in detail, giving honest, accurate and actionable advice to adjust
posing and alter the energy deficit or surplus to achieve the desired goal. He was relatable, available and uses a combination of video calls, voice messaging and written feedback to communicate in a very timely
manner with clients. I cannot emphasize his punctuality enough. In the later stages of prep - when you are fighting a mental battle with yourself - I would send physique updates at 4am in the morning and would
receive a response and action plan when I needed to hear from him the most. Having been involved in this field for some time coaching clients myself, studying an undergrad in kinesiology and masters in physiotherapy, I appreciated Connor’s attention to detail to the entire coaching process. I can confirm and validate that Connor absolutely knows what he is doing as a coach and that he will give you his utmost attention and detail throughout your bodybuilding preparation or any physique goal of your choosing. If you have any questions about Connor’s coaching, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I have nothing
but positives to share about my time with him. He will help you build muscle. He will help get you in shape. He will answer your questions honestly and make you feel at ease throughout a contest prep.
