I have a high school girl who is into power lifting. 2 years ago she competed in the 165 weight class. Last year she was in the 148 weight class. Since season is over she has maintained a super strict diet and has shed to 134. When she added cardio she began to shed weight. She wants to bulk up and compete this year in the same weight class without sacrificing all cardio. Has made regionals 3 years in a row and this is her last year. Trying to make it a good one for her.

What is the best diet/lifting program to get her there? Any recommendations for online or zoom fitness gurus?

I’d recommend finding her a coach where she trains who can guide her on that information.

Barbell medicine is a good resource that offers programs and online coaching.

Does the school have a team? Or is she just competing on her own?

Get Renaissance Diet 2.0. It has all the diet info you need, totally research based. It is a quick read and well written. You will know how much percentage wise the three macros she should be eating. You will be skipping most of it that is for different athletes...runners, football etc.

Congrats, you must be proud. I have two daughters myself.

Edit to add you will need a food scale and count macro calories.

Or you could just use their app that changes based on your inputs every week

Very small town, fairly remote. We have a dollar general but not much else.

It has a team. A few members qualified for state the last few years. Coach isn't a lot of help in the nutrition department. He is good with the super heavys and the 90 pounders. Doesn't know what to do with the middle groups.

Carbon diet or rp diet app for nutrition.

For programming, I suggest barbell medicine templates.

Damn that sucks. lsu777 recommendations are solid if in person is not an option due to location.

I work with a girl who won state last year in her weight class as a junior. I think she’s in the 130lb range. Shes currently on a 16wk program by her coach who works at the local hospitals sports performance center.
