I had the opportunity to be coached by Jennifer at the world championships in 2019. She expertly handled my warmup and competition attempts and I had an incredible meet! I’ve competed for many years nationally and internationally and been handled by many different coaches. Jennifer is definitely my go-to next time I need a meet coach.

As a busy homeschooling mama of 3, I needed Jennifer to customize workout plans for me to complete in tiny pockets of time at the gym. She provided nutritional support as well. I have never felt stronger than when I used her plans. But the best thing about her is that she really cares about your success.

George Halas was asked, “What makes a good coach?” – His answer- “complete dedication.” There is a reason I drive an hour to meet with Jennifer Perrier for coaching. She gives me complete dedication. I always come out of our sessions together, exhausted, inspired and a better athlete. She gives 100% of herself to her lifting and to her coaching. She is a champion lifter, with twelve years of competitive experience under her belt. Time with Jennifer is a crucial part of my training.

That was awesome! Thank you so much, Jennifer! I had a blast talking with you. And I did a few more singles after we spoke and I think that once I get used to that new starting position it's going to be a game changer. I most definitely want to do another session again... I really got a lot out of talking with you today.
