DORIS LOWMAN

When Doris first joined the team she had the aim of doing a photoshoot in preparation for her wedding but emphasised that she “never wanted to compete.” As time went on, her interest in the sport grew as she was surrounded by competitors whom I was working with that were preparing for the stage.

It was a few months into coaching when she expressed her desire to step on stage and wondered if we could tie in a show around her photoshoot time. As you’d expect, I was thrilled to hear this news and we quickly put plans in place to do a couple of UKUP shows. The only thing that changed in the coaching process was that her training become more suited towards the bikini class, placing more emphasis on bringing up her glutes and delts.

Not only did Doris compete but she managed to bag herself a few medals in the process! The focus now shifts to returning to stage in a couple years time and plans are already in place to ensure she’ll be unrecognisable.

Across her season Doris collected:

1 x 2nd
1 x 3rd
3 x 4th
1 x 5th

Here’s what Doris had to say about her journey:

“I originally signed up with Vaughan to prep for a photoshoot, but I then decided to properly challenge myself and enter a couple of shows. As a complete newbie to the sport, the info, support and detailed plans for how to get me there was invaluable. His technical knowledge is obviously fantastic, but his coaching is great and that's harder to find! 

He was there the night before and day of both my shows, and was the loudest voice in the crowd both times. 

I would highly recommend Vaughan to anyone considering getting into bodybuilding, there is nothing more I could have asked for from a coach.”
