Bodybuilding Journey Fall 2015 Part I

It all begins with a vision. See it in your head, write it with your hand, and speak it from your heart.

After the vision, you go on the mission. What are you trying to accomplish? What will you need? How will you get there?

"When two are in agreement......." "Two is better than one." All that. One of the best decisions I've ever made was recruiting somebody to go on the mission with me.



No question I drew inspiration from Caitlin. She worked hard in the gym and was committed to competition. During her runs in 2013 and 2014, I was not equipped with all the tools needed to be an outstanding coach. I could train her hard, but other than that, I had no blueprint.


#BeastMom Laura Dennie is a HUGE inspiration. She has competed in, and won trophies in bikini and figure competitions. We first met at Urban Active in 2012 when she was pregnant with her 2nd child/son, Cole. I have watched her develop from a physically active woman into a highly competitive muscle and fitness athlete. She became so good so fast that I had to make a commitment to studying and living a bodybuilding lifestyle. If I had not, it would have felt like I did not have the credibility to coach her.

Client of the Month Oct 2013


TRENDING: Caitlin L. Bogo


Hard work. Dedication. Discipline. Motivation. Inspiration. Fitness.
This young lady has been in full attack mode since we began training. Caitlin began training with McCohn Muscle at the end of April. She was 132lbs with 25% body fat. The week of her mid-October bikini competition, she weighed 113lbs and with body fat under 18%. She did it with relentless effort during her workouts and a ridiculously disciplined diet. A typical week included over 100 minutes of cardio on the StairMaster, 210 minutes on the treadmill, 1200 squats, and four football fields of lunges. That does not include the 2-3 grueling training sessions she did with Q. McCohn, and Fit Fighters class every Thursday evening at Max Out Gym. She never missed a session, workout, or class. Caitlin also maintained extreme focus with her nutrition for 18 weeks. Her staples included foods like egg whites, quinoa, cream of rice, green vegetables, and seitan. There were no cheat days or cheat meals. Her discipline is why she placed 3rd overall out of 12 in her first bikini competition.

Nice work Caitlin. Thanks for letting McCohn Muscle Training be a part of your journey.
