How we help

The right coach. A clear goal.

We don’t coach or train anyone directly. We help veterans and service members, some still in uniform, get connected with qualified coaches, trainers, and partners. Any starting point works, whether you want to feel better day to day or step on stage.

Coaching connections

Tell us your goal, your schedule, and any injuries or limits. We help you find qualified coaches and trainers who are a good fit. The coaching itself comes from them.

Nutrition coaches
Gyms and local partners

Path to the stage

Competing is a big goal, and the first show can feel like a lot. We help you connect with experienced prep and posing coaches, find a show, and know what to expect. You won’t walk in alone.

Help with costs

Money shouldn’t be the reason someone doesn’t compete. We’re a new nonprofit, so we can’t promise dollars yet. As funds allow, we plan to:

Help cover part of coaching costs, through partner coaches and trainers
Work toward paying a veteran’s first competition entry fee

For the 2027 NPC Vancouver Open, veterans get free first-class entries, presented in partnership with Unbroken Ranks.
