About this episode

The episode discusses the individualized approach to peak week for IFBB pros, highlighting case studies and coaching challenges.

Peak week isn't a one-size-fits-all process—and these IFBB pro case studies show exactly why. We break down what happened with our athletes at Texas Pro, including how we adjusted food, fluids, loading, stage-day weight ranges, and peak-week decisions based on how each athlete was responding. We also talk through the coaching challenges that come with working with high-level pros, from managing an athlete who fades quickly to making sure ego never gets in the way of getting better.
