Elite Powerlifting & Nutrition Coaching That Builds Unbreakable Confidence

From Coach Monica Cahalan - World Record Holder, Elite Powerlifter & Precision Nutrition Certified

​

A World Record Holder Who Started Exactly Where You Are

Four World Records. Two 1,000+ lb totals. 405 squat, 225 bench, 435 deadlift.

​

But here's what matters most: Coach Monica built ALL of this from scratch through pure hard work and determination. She knows exactly what it feels like to walk into a gym feeling intimidated, uncertain, and wondering if you belong. Because she's been there too.

​

The difference? She turned that uncertainty into unbreakable strength - and now she's dedicated to helping you do the same.

​

Monica specializes in creating inclusive, empowering spaces where women and lifters of all backgrounds discover their true strength. As founder of New Gold Performance and certified referee with Powerlifting United, she's not just breaking records - she's breaking barriers and building confidence one athlete at a time.

Real Athlete Transformation

Meet Jasmine (@pringlesss)

​

"What an insane follow up meet for Jasmine! She put 122lbs on her total in just 8 months. There is zero doubt how strong she is, but she had a lot of technique work to do and learning the benefit of having discipline. It's been really cool to see her gain all these awesome skills, and kick ass on the platform and in life! This sport is incredible for building confidence and resiliency and I've witnessed that in working with Jasmine."

760 lbs → 882 lbs total in 8 months = 122 lb increase + bulletproof confidence

​

"Watching Jasmine hit squats with such confidence was incredible - she went 3/3 finishing with a 358lb third attempt! Even when bench didn't go as planned, she attacked each attempt with intention and a positive attitude, still hitting a 20lb PR on her opener. Her deadlift matched her squat PR at 358 lbs. This is only her second full power meet, and that 1,000 lb total is coming soon!"
