3DMJ Podcast #148: Practical Bodybuilding

In this episode, Jeff, Brad, and Steve (the team dietitian) discuss factors that play huge roles in your ability to be a successful bodybuilder. The coaches discuss how to take the evidenced-based guidelines many of us are familiar with and put them into practice. What do the coaches do to help their athletes minimize stress? How can you set your environment up to support your goals? How can you reduce the chance of burnout? The answers to these, plus many related questions are covered in today’s episode. If you’ve been struggling with putting recommendations into practice or the mental effort required to execute your plan is higher than you would like it to be, this episode is for you.
