1997 Trans Am Lt1 engine prob pls help

Was driving, punched it, motor went out, had it towed to my buddies shop, he tested optispark and fuel pump, they were fine, plugged the computer in no issues, however theres not enough compression for the engine to run what could be the problem. ALL HELP is appreciated.

Blown head gasket, broken/worn rings, to name a few possibilities, no compression is bad, and will most likely mean a decent amount of work to get it fixed, good luck man.
