Zac Cooper has been involved in the sport of powerlifting since 1997. He was a competitive powerlifter in high school and college and competed at multiple State, Regional, and National Championships from 1997-2005 in the United States. Since that time He’s served as coach of 3 different Collegiate Powerlifting Programs in the United States, including 3 National Championship Titles with Louisiana Tech University. Since 2013, Cooper has served as a Senior International Coach for the United States, most recently as Assistant Coach for the North American and Pan-American Powerlifting Championships and has been the coach of over 100 U.S. National and IPF International Champions. In October 2018 Cooper was named the Head Coach of the United States for the IPF Sub-Junior / Junior World Powerlifting Championships. Professionally, Cooper holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Physiology and a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Strength & Conditioning. He has owned and operated the Cooper Training Institute (CTI) since 2009 and has offered powerlifting coaching and competition day coaching professionally since 2013. His programming philosophy has been heavily influenced by Kraemer, Wolf, Bompa, and Maile. When asked what separates Cooper’s programming from others he said it is the implementation of proper undulating cycle progressions, core lift variations, biomechanical analysis of athletes’ lifts, and his unique “reactionary program design” which constantly adjusts to the athlete’s progress. CTI’s slogan is “Mechanics. Technique. White Lights.”
