Head Posing Coach
I want to welcome everyone to Unchained Physiques. I’ve been an athlete my whole life ever since I’ve been old enough to walk. Played soccer and basketball growing up. I’ve always loved and respected the sport of bodybuilding and in 2018 I decided to compete in my first competition in Charlotte, NC where I became nationally qualified to compete at nationals. I have done a total of 5 competitions which has taught me a lot about presentation on stage, what the judges look for, and how to display your best look on stage.I watched and observed Mike’s every move with his athletes because I wanted to learn and help people some day. That day has come! I help most of our current athletes now @unchained_physiques as one of the posing coaches but also inviting all beginners, NPC, and IFBB competitors that need or could use a posing coach. I can help you learn the basics of posing and what needs to be done for you to succeed on stage. Let's get your journey started!!!
