Jess’ Strength Lab Journey

Stage-Ready Physique & Presence

3 First-Place Trophies
Competing at a professional bodybuilding level requires precision in training, nutrition, and mindset. Jess’s coach at Strength Lab created a program designed to maximize her potential and bring her best physique to the stage.

Tailored Training Program: Focused on building muscle symmetry, definition & posing practice to highlight her physique on stage.

Dialed-In Nutrition: A phased approach to cutting body fat while preserving lean muscle mass, ensuring she reached peak condition for the competition.

Accountability and Support: Weekly check-ins, adjustments, and encouragement to keep Jess on track during the most demanding phases of her prep.
Through their guidance, Jess achieved not just physical transformation but also the confidence to shine on stage.
Balancing Motherhood and Competition
One of the most remarkable aspects of Jess’s journey was her ability to juggle motherhood while training for a bodybuilding show. Early mornings, late-night meal prep, and countless hours in the gym paid off as she stepped onto the stage in the best shape of her life.
“Strength Lab didn’t just give me a program—they understood my challenges as a mum and supported me every step of the way,” Jess shares.
