In this episode, Alberto, Brad, and Jeff discuss how to set yourself up for a successful prep.
How can you accurately determine how much weight you need to lose? What simple formula can help you estimate the length of your prep? How far out from your show do the coaches recommend you start working with a coach? If you’ve never competed before, what do the coaches recommend you do before your first show to help you get a better feel for what bodybuilding competitions are like?
The answers to these, plus many more pre-prep questions are covered in today’s episode. Whether this is your first, fifth, or tenth show, you’re sure to find value in the ideas and recommendations talked about in this episode.
