#18: Sacrifice to Win

Alberto Nunez, Eric Helms, and Andrea Valdez talk about embracing the suck and sacrificing to win.

Bodybuilding is an extreme sport. And although recent generations have found more efficient and practical ways to go about it, we can’t forget that the shit gets difficult. At some point, it will hurt…a lot.

The coaches discuss some terrible times, some pleasant times, and some of the times that they suffered unnecessarily.

They also go into strategies on how to deal with hunger, when to eat out, and when it’s time to make drastic changes in your life in order to reach your bodybuilding goals.

If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to be a competitor, this episode is definitely for you.

#17: All About Injuries

Alberto Nunez, Brad Loomis, and Andrea Valdez discuss all about bodybuilding INJURIES.

This particular episode definitely did not end up how the coaches thought it would, but it took an unexpected turn for the better.

Brad, Berto, and Andrea start with the physical injuries. They dive into prevention, warm-up, and all the other normal stuff you’d expect on an episode about injuries.

But somewhere in the middle, they actually dive into mental, psychological, or behavioral “injuries” that can come in various forms, as these are what often-times wind up being the reason people do not complete a contest prep.

And of course, the coaches discuss their own current aches and pains, how they’ve learned to deal with them, and why they expect they will never fully go away.

#16: How To Be Selfish

Jeff Alberts, Brad Loomis, and Andrea Valdez discuss how to be a more selfish athlete

Now although selfish usually has a negative connotation within our society, throughout this podcast we talk about both sides of the coin.

Yes, we actually think that being selfish can be a good thing, and is sometimes absolutely necessary in order to achieve goals and live a fulfilled life.

But how selfish is too selfish? How do the three of these coaches differ in their own definitions of self care? And how does that affect them as athletes, family members, significant others and friends?

These are just a few of the ways we look at this topic, and the coaches also touch on the ways that they have seen certain selfish behaviors make or break some of the athletes they have coached over the years as well.
