TAP H.I.T. Style Programs

Brief. Brutal. Measurable.

High-Intensity Training is not for everyone. These workouts demand full effort, focus, recovery, and a willingness to push sets to true failure.

Pat was personally coached by Mike Mentzer for several years in the mid 1990s and has spent decades developing a powerful customized version of H.I.T. for bodybuilders, athletes, and serious lifters.

The goal is not more exercises, more sets, or more gym time. The goal is the right stress, the right recovery, and the right adjustment at the right time.

New Book Release

Shock Your Body Into Growth: Precision Over Volume.

Pat’s book explains the training philosophy behind smarter bodybuilding progress, H.I.T. execution, recovery, nutrition discipline, and the precision-over-random-volume approach.

If you are tired of wasting time with more exercises, more sets, and more guessing, this book will help you understand how to train harder, recover smarter, and make every workout count.

Contest Prep & Posing

Bring Your Best Package To The Stage.

Contest prep is not just a diet and weekly check-in. You need evaluation, strategy, posing, training adjustments, peak week planning, and experienced eyes from day one through show day.

Contest Prep

Customized 20-24 week strategy with training, cardio, nutrition, weekly modifications, peak week, and show-day support.

Posing Instruction

Master mandatories, flow, presentation, confidence, endurance, balance, and stage presence for your division.

Peak Week

Precise carb depletion, carb loading, daily oversight, physique critiques, and final adjustments before the show.
