Coach Cris Rosa

Powerlifting Coaching, Built Toward a Total.

Meet prep and competition programming for lifters chasing a number on the platform, not just in the gym.

How Meet Prep Works

1

Set the target meet

Programming counts backward from a real date, not an open-ended block.

2

Peak with a plan

Volume and intensity shift on a schedule built around your competition, not guesswork.

3

Rehearse meet day

Openers, attempts, and warm-up timing practiced before it counts.

4

Walk out with your total

Cris has walked 50+ competitors through their first meet.

What Cris's Clients Say

Marcus T.

Client since 2025

My squat had been stuck at 405 for months. Six weeks of video check-ins and I finally knew what was wrong. It's moving again.

Jenna R.

Client since 2025

I didn't think I was 'competitive lifter' material. Cris met me where I was and I walked my first meet eight months later.

Dave O.

Client since 2025

Training alone I was just guessing every week. Now every rep gets watched and the program changes because of it.

Powerlifting Coaching — Questions

Do I need to have competed before?

No — most of Cris's meet-prep clients are walking their first platform, not their tenth.

What federation/rules do you program for?

Programming is confirmed against your specific meet's rules on your goal session, once we know which one you're targeting.

What if I'm not ready to commit to a meet yet?

That's fine — the goal session covers whether meet prep or general strength coaching fits where you're at right now.
