IS SPAIN THE BEST COUNTRY TO LIVE IN? FRANCE PRO & DARRAGH'S ENGAGEMENT | THE CELTIC CAST EPISODE 30

In this week's episode of The Celtic Cast, the boys catch up after another hectic week in bodybuilding. Mark breaks down his experience attending Mike Sommerfield's seminar in Dubai, including the biggest lessons he took away around training, injuries and long-term progression. Mike gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the France Pro, sharing what it's really like backstage at a professional bodybuilding show, the differences between amateur and pro events, and his athlete Eva's Pro debut. Darragh opens up about his recent engagement, the story behind the proposal, why he decided to completely switch off from bodybuilding for a few days, and how becoming an IFBB Pro has changed his outlook moving forward. We also dive into off-season planning, pushing up bodyweight, Spain as a potential long-term base, learning new languages, and what life might look like after years of being completely consumed by bodybuilding.
