Description

Center Stage Athletics & Team CSFP provides individualized competition prep and posing coaching for natural physique athletes in Maryland and throughout the DC/MD/VA region, with virtual coaching available to competitors across the United States and internationally.

Led by owner and competition prep coach Tina Peratino, the team specializes in helping athletes prepare for physique competitions through customized training, nutrition, posing and stage presentation. Tina has more than two decades of experience in physique competition as an athlete, coach, promoter and judge and has earned professional status in Figure, Women’s Physique/Fitbody and Bodybuilding.

Competition prep is built around the individual athlete rather than a standard plan. Coaching includes customized nutrition and training programming, weekly online check-ins, exercise-form reviews when needed and ongoing email access to your coach. Programs are adjusted according to your progress, competition timeline and individual needs.

As show day approaches, competitors receive customized peak week strategies along with additional posing and physique check-ins. Show-day coaching is available either in person or virtually, giving athletes access to their coach throughout competition day. Post-show reverse strategies are also included to help competitors transition out of contest prep after stepping offstage.

Posing is an important part of the Center Stage Athletics program. Private posing sessions are included with competition-prep coaching, and competitors can also book posing separately. The team provides posing and choreography for Bikini, Figure, Wellness and Women’s Physique athletes as well as posing and stage choreography for all men’s divisions.

Men’s posing is coached by Eric Peratino, a longtime natural bodybuilding competitor, judge, promoter and posing coach. His competitive background includes Bodybuilding and Classic Physique, with professional status earned in multiple natural bodybuilding federations.

Center Stage Athletics has a particular focus on drug-tested and natural bodybuilding. The team's competition resources include organizations such as the OCB, ANBF, WNBF and NGA, making it especially relevant for athletes looking for coaching from people familiar with the natural bodybuilding competition environment.

Competitors do not need to live in Maryland to work with the team. Virtual coaching includes the same core training and nutrition programming, weekly check-ins and ongoing communication, while posing and final physique assessments can also be completed online.

For athletes in Maryland, Washington, DC and Northern Virginia, in-person appointments provide an additional option for posing, assessments and coaching. Center Stage Athletics can work with both first-time competitors learning how to prepare for the stage and experienced natural athletes looking for structured support through prep, peak week and show day.
