I reached out to Jill in December of 2024. I was on a bus with my family on our way to New York. I was online looking at Jill’s website. I have been wanting to start with Jill, but I wasn’t sure which program I wanted to do.
I competed in a bikini show in November of 2023. I was with a different coach at the time. I trained hard but the prep to cut the weight did not go as planned. I did everything she asked me to do. At the same time I was following Jill on Facebook watching all her competitors’ transformations and getting on stage to win! I said to myself and the coach at the time, “I don’t look like that. I am not ready.” On show day I didn’t get the results I wanted, but I learned a lot. I wanted a redemption, so I trained hard for a year.
Jill has been phenomenal from start to finish. I knew her program was going to be a challenge, but I came into her competitive program willing to train hard and win. I followed her training workout and her diet 100%. I made this journey personal. I did not look at anyone to my left or to my right. I kept my focus straight and I believed in myself. I trusted Jill, and I will continue to trust her into the next journey. My goal is to get my pro card in women’s figure.
Thank you Jill for being honest, knowledgeable, professional and amazing in your coaching to transform those people who are willing to step out of their comfort zone to have a healthier life or compete on stage!
Jill, you are Amazing!! Thank you!

Jairus and I are actually expecting our first baby in October! The fact I was able to get my period back and get pregnant 4 months post show I was shocked! The quality of food we ate 100% prepped my body for this! So thanks for putting us both in a perfect place for parenthood!
I started working with Jill a few years ago as a lifestyle client with the hopes to compete. I was a dancer and athlete my whole life and after college, I needed something to work for in the gym! I had seen competitors before and knew that was my next step. Jill helped me through a weight loss phase and helped me build solid habits that I was able to take into a growing season. After a year or so I came back finally ready to compete. She was able to lead my husband and I in a 25 week prep that ended in my OCB pro card win! Her meals, workouts, and methods are fool proof. You do the work and there’s no denying the results. Her communication is always fast and constructive. She is a straight shooter and always had our best interest and heath in mind. My husband and I will continue competing under Jill because there is no denying the quality of athletes she produces

I worked with Jill for 5 years with her handling my nutrition during my OCB Pro Figure Career. Each year it got better and better. Her extensive knowledge base was able to work with not only me being a former marathon runner (exact opposite of what sustains muscle growth), my restrictive IBS stomach, and pescatarian diet and created meal plans that enabled me to continually sustain and build muscle mass each year. She was able to extend me grace during a hard part of a comeback after getting an abdominal hysterectomy but also told me the hard truths that I needed to get back to where I needed to be to be successful in my shows. She is simply awesome!

As a non-competitor/bodybuilder, I have felt very comfortable in Team Jill. I learned to lose fat the healthy way, I actually have to eat more, way more, of the right things in order to lose fat. This is contrary to popular belief that you have to starve yourself, NOT TRUE! By doing this, I am far less likely to indulge in the foods that work against my goals. The community she has built is an awesome group of both women & men, very supportive. You DO NOT have to be a body builder to belong here! I am learning the benefits of building muscle for health without having to be a body builder. Bonus, it doesn't break the bank!
Cheryl
When I found Jill, at 63 years old, I was struggling to lose body fat and put on some muscle for a couple of years. After signing up for an 8 week program with Jill my body finally started to respond and I was eating more than before I started. I was able to get into a pair of my favorite jeans from my 20’s! Jill is amazing at what she does! I would highly recommend Jill if you are struggling to lose weight/body fat and/or put on muscle. She is your Golden Ticket for sure!

My decision to switch from a different online coaching program to working with Coach Jill Bartlett was absolutely the best decision I made. I wanted to enter my first body competition and had no idea where to begin. Coach Jill's food and workout plans were easy to follow and helped me achieve results I never thought possible. I travel a lot for my job and her guidance and patience throughout the process was outstanding.
Even though I insisted I was a 'one and done' doing this sort of competition, I will definitely be signing on for another round!
Whether you are looking to compete or just feel and look better, I highly recommend Coach Jill Bartlett.

In 2014 I came across Jill through a friend who was a fellow bodybuilder. We both had the same Coach but once my friend switched to Jill, I noticed she was winning all her shows! I thought to myself, I need to get with her ASAP! And when I did, I too won every show I did until I ultimately became an IFBB Bikini Pro in 2016.
In 2019, I placed 1st in my second IFBB Pro show which was the BEST I’ve ever looked! Although I would only do one to two shows a year, my body transformed each time! I truly appreciate Jill’s attention to detail and overwhelming knowledge on nutrition. It amazes me how in just a couple weeks you can see progress just based on what you eat. Four years of being a part of Team V has been the best decision in my bodybuilding career!
Jill and the team are very supportive and I’m always welcomed back with open arms after 1-2 years away from the stage. I highly recommend Jill for either competition prep or if you’re just trying to shed a few pounds and live a healthy life style.

Jill is the best coach I have ever had. As a student athlete since a young age, I have always enjoyed being a year-round field hockey player and runner. However, once it came time to graduate from college field hockey and track, I struggled to find something that was sustainable for myself and kept me in great shape being a full time nurse. I slowly realized that I had never really been taught about nutrition in regards to training style and how the two compliment each other to attain how I wanted my physique to look.
My initial intention in hiring Jill was just to reconnect with my love for the gym, lean down, and tone up. However, it has turned into so much more!
What started out as a 12 week plan, turned into 26 weeks of hard work and ended with a top five placement at my first bikini competition! If it weren’t for Jill, I would have never discovered my passion for body building and realizing just how much control I had over changing my body composition and lifestyle.
Her methods are sound and simple. Jill teaches you that consistency and proper nutrition can get you the results you want, you just have to put in the work! I value her years of experience as a trainer. She has the ability to assess any individual and know exactly what to tweak to bring out the best in their body.
Not to mention, she’s a badass if you couldn’t tell! She talks the talk and walks the walk. Regardless of where you are in your journey, I highly recommend hiring Jill as your coach! She will meet you where you are and take your progress to places you couldn’t imagine!

After enjoying my off-season calories and carbs just a little too much lol, my Coach sent me to Jill in September 2018 to get me back on track with my nutrition for my regional competition planned for April.
Jill took me through a strict 3 week “clean up” meal plan and my body responded right away. I can honestly say I never felt starved or got bored with my plans while on prep. Every 3 weeks I had a new meal plan, with different food and substitutes to choose from, which kept the boredom from creeping in. I placed 2nd in Open Figure Class B (which qualified me for nationals) and 1st in 40 and over at the competition. We took the next 3 months to adjust my nutrition and prepare me for NPC Universe in July. Jill’s cardio and nutritional blueprint worked like a charm the second time around as well. I earned my IFBB PRO Card at my first national’s competition. All of this took place within 10 months!
I’ve had other nutritionist in the past however, working with Jill made my prep so much easier. The support and encouragement from her and Team V is invaluable. I highly recommend Jill for competition prep, weight loss or just to get your eating habits back on track.

Jill has been my coach for 4 years now. At the time I was frustrated because I worked out everyday and felt I ate pretty healthy. However I wasn’t seeing results. I also had been diagnosed with some health issues and food allergies that were really affecting my body. I felt like I couldn’t eat anything! Training and having Jills food plans changed my life. She showed me how to stay away from my allergens but still eat healthy. She showed me how I should be eating to have a leaner body. The skills she taught me I will have for life. Since meeting Jill, I am the healthiest I’ve ever been (at 39!) I am the leanest and most toned of my life. Overall I feel great!!! Jill changed my life. I have done 3 competitions so far and placed in 2 of them. Most importantly of all the online coaches there are, Jill has never done anything unhealthy with me, I love her philosophy and it works. She’s also been my rock through tough times and has helped me navigate my diet and exercise during times where I would have probably failed alone.

Hands down, Jill is one of the best coaches by far! I started training to compete in 2017 under a coach I trusted and turns out he was no good for me or my body!! I found Jill through a posting clinic and knew she was who I wanted to work with and represent. I found a new love in fitness and nutrition thanks to Jill. I love my “on” and “off” season look and I trust in all her guidance. Without Jill I am not certain where I would be in my fitness path, but I know I wouldn’t be damn near as happy. TEAM V is more than just people getting fit, it’s a family, a friendship, a guiding tool for life and all that we experience. It’s supportive, encouraging and motivating regardless of being a competitor or not. I am so happy to be a part of Team V!!

Growing up, I was always the skinny girl who dreamt of being strong, but had no idea how to get there. At 35, I had reached a plateau with fitness and felt like I needed more. Jill is the best coach! She has taught me so much about the importance of body composition and nutrition. Competing was something I had always thought about in the past, but never thought was possible. I’m a nurse, wife, mom of (now 3!), swim coach, and former college athlete. I’m a normal person who wanted something more and Jill has helped me achieve just that over the past three years. I enjoying prepping for the stage but have loved seeing the positive changes that have come with adding muscle to my smaller frame. I finally feel like the athlete I once was, but even stronger now at almost 40.

Jill is one of the most reputable, effective people in this business. If you’re looking for a tailored approach with knowledgeable guidance, she’s your girl. She truly listened and guided me every step of the way and was able to entirely transform by body and fitness level in 4 months. I’m a lifelong customer.
Chaianna Bono
Jill is AMAZING!! She gives you a blueprint for success, and if followed the results are incredible!! I have always felt like she is as invested in my fitness journey as I am, and I have never felt like I was just a “number”! I am so so sooo thankful I found her!
Brandy Schanno
This is my second prep with Jill. My first show, she led me into an overall finish in figure, along with my husband winning a few of his classes in classic physique. Her meal plans, cardio regiment, supplements, honesty and posing clinics make prep effortless, right up to show day. Along with a smooth prep, I really appreciated an open line of honest communication of guidance from prep to moral support. I will continue to come back to Jill for contest or off season prep. Personally, I love the way she structures her check-ins, easy, smooth and no pressure or anxiety to weekly send photos. You absolutely cannot go wrong being apart of Team-V.

Jill Bartlett is an amazing and responsive nutrition coach. She fed me for growth and sustainment as we worked towards my OCB Pro debut. She adapted to my body’s craziness…severe lactose intolerance, IBS and being pescatarian. She is beyond gifted and knowledgeable about what the body needs to cut fat and develop muscle. She took an undernourished body from my first competition and provided the fuel that was needed to support the lifting and training I was doing. She takes time to answer questions and last minute freak outs. She is truly a gift to competitors and to say I am fan is an understatement.
Thanks!
