    I have spent all my life in this sport and power lifting. It is a brotherhood and we do not have coaches as such. We have friends we trust. Training partners. Good advice from people we trust and most of all we have an absolute commitment to never being satisfied, strong enough or good enough.

    Coaches exist so teams have somebody to blame for their failure! If you fail! Look in the mirror! All the help you need is here, use it! Good luck, John

    I'm going to respectfully disagree. I don't know if the OP needs a coach but even the biggest and best athletes have coaches. Tiger Woods and Phil Michelson both have coaches and there is even a video of Phil Heath after winning the Olympia thanking his coach.

    Also attend a show and you can see which teams put a priority on practicing their poses and which don't.

    Not the case in all sports. Can you imagine a football team(American) running around without a coach as a unifying figure?
