The coaching practice of Lawrence Gordon
The comeback is
the credential.
In 2025 I placed seventh in my class at the NPC Midwest Championships. Fourteen months later I walked off stage as the 2026 NPC Missouri State Men's Physique Overall Champion.
That climb is what I coach. Competitors, athletes, and everyday clients work directly with me, on the same system I use for my own prep: training, nutrition structure, posing, and honest check-ins.
In person in the Alton and Godfrey area. Online anywhere.
