Stage-ready execution.
For every NPC and IFBB Pro division. Built around your body, your show, your timeline.
Contest prep, engineered.
Real contest prep is not a template. From the day the deficit starts, every variable matters — training intensity, calorie pacing, sodium and water management, sleep, biofeedback, posing, and the dozen psychological pieces nobody talks about. The athletes who peak right are the ones whose coaches are reading the body in real time and adjusting accordingly. That is what we do here.
Team Kush has prepped athletes from their first local NPC show through to IFBB Pro Card qualifications. The same framework applies — the only thing that changes is the level of detail, the timeline, and the federation strategy.
Every NPC and IFBB Pro division.
Every variable. Personally managed.
Custom training program
Built around your division, structure, body type, and equipment access. Adjustments by phase to drive the look the judges reward.
Nutrition protocol
Tuned to your metabolism, digestion, and weekly feedback. Macros and timing evolve as the prep progresses.
Daily structure & tracking
Training, cardio, food, sleep, biofeedback — all logged and reviewed. Nothing left to guesswork.
Weekly check-ins
Photo + data review. Adjustments back to you within 24 hours.
Posing coaching
Zoom or in-person. Refined for your division and federation standards. Mandatory inside 6 weeks of show.
Peak Week protocol
Required for all competitors. Daily handling of every variable from 7 days out — water, sodium, carbs, timing.
Show-day support
Remote check-ins all day. Coach physically attends shows where logistics allow.
Supplement & performance protocols
Built around your goal, division, health, and timeline. Nothing templated, nothing untested.
Direct coach access
Strategic questions, emergency adjustments, real-time guidance — not 3-day email turnaround.
Posing & presentation work
Stage walk, turns, T-walk, transitions. Practiced until they're muscle memory.
Post-show reverse
The plan doesn't end at show day. Reverse diet and recovery built into the program by default.
Federation strategy
Which shows to target. Which judges reward which looks. Long-term qualification path.
How a real prep unfolds.
- 20-16
Deficit Initiated
Calorie deficit starts immediately. Conditioning intensifies. Posing introduced early to build stage stamina. Weekly check-ins drive every adjustment from here on.
- 16-12
Body Composition Dial-In
Macros tightened based on real-time response. Training volume manipulated to preserve muscle in the cut. Posing twice weekly minimum. First real change visible.
- 12-8
Conditioning & Refinement
Detail starts showing. Cardio adjusted, weak points isolated, posing transitions polished. Photo days every 2 weeks to track progression honestly.
- 8-4
Hardening Phase
Final body composition adjustments. Posing daily. Water and sodium baselines established. Supplementation refined. Detail and dryness become the focus.
- 4-1
Polish & Finalize
Look is locked in. Daily posing. Detail work and tan trials. Mental rehearsal for stage. Final fine-tuning of every variable.
