OVERALL WINNER & NEW Natural OCB Pro 🏆

My man @paris.young_ won the overall today in New York in a very stacked class of 19 other competitors. Almost all of which were 26-30yr+ and have been training for years. Very respectable line up.

He won the overall in a ☝🏼 point decision, in his first show.

It was a nail biter for sure.

Nailing his peak, perfecting the posing, owning the stage with confidence, a beautiful tan, and a crazy coach in the stands yelling “LOOK AT 35’s GLUTES!!!!” is what brought that W home.

Congratulations again, Paris. You showed work ethic, discipline, perseverance, determination, grit, and pure Savage Excellence this prep.

Couldn’t be more proud of you homie; I’m honored to be your coach.

Back to work tomorrow morning.

1st in Teens / 1st in Debut / 2nd Overall 🏆

Man this kid is something else..

Executed the plan to a T.

Extremely happy with our results. Peak was nailed and ended up 2nd overall with a stacked class.

Missed his natty pro card by 1 place. We aren’t too upset about it though because 1st place was well deserved to someone much bigger and leaner.

Next up we nail our reverse and get him set up for a proper improvement season for the next few years to add some solid mass on his frame.

If anyone imbodies Savage Excellence on my team, it’s Caleb.

Proud you brother, you deserve this bro. I’m honored to be your coach.

Here’s how I set calories + macros in the off-season to grow lean tissue.

1️⃣ Start with your BMR:
Body weight (lbs) × 10 = baseline calories

2️⃣ Set your protein + fats first:
🥩 Protein: 1.0–1.4 g per lb (I use ~1.3 g with most athletes)
🥑 Fats: 0.2–0.4 g per lb (sometimes up to 0.5–0.6 g depending on needs)

3️⃣ Fill the rest with carbs to hit your maintenance calories.
That’s your starting point 💪

4️⃣ Track progress:
Monitor training performance, bodyweight trends, and visuals.

5️⃣ Scale up slowly:
Add 20–40 g carbs every 2–4 weeks if you’re progressing well and staying lean.

Things just don’t come together in peak week, the plane was already on the ground weeks ago. Peak week is when we capitalize on the work that’s been done and sharpen the sword @shreddedcheddarproductions @shotsbykenlor by @trist_nelson

First layer of war paint is on and fresh fade has been deployed. Getting real now… t-minus 48h until game time baby😈

Nasty arm pump after 1,000g of carbs yesterday. Pulling some of this water off today then come in with a niceee and balanced look for show day.

Happy 66th birthday to my beautiful momma! So blessed to have a mom that has sacrificed so much for us. This woman’s work ethic and compassion for others is 2nd to none. She’s taught me what being a Savage of Excellence truly means. I love you mom! Also shout out to my girl for baking her such a beautiful cake 🤌🏼 by @trist_nelson

Damn proud of this. I’ve wanted to get peeled since I was 16 years old. We’ve finally done it. Last low day with cardio down in the books today. Now we just refine and fill out from here. Appreciate everyone’s overwhelming support so far in this journey 🤘🏼

Shout out to my coach who has helped me guide me and been so frickin amazing throughout this whole prep. Wouldn’t be here without him @_nickjustice by @trist_nelson
