How to Reverse Diet After a bodybuilding Show (Without Ruining Your Offseason) | J3U Podcast Ep. 239
About this episode
This episode discusses the critical post-show phase in bodybuilding, focusing on reverse diets and recovery strategies to optimize the offseason.
The biggest mistake in bodybuilding often happens after the show—not during prep. In this episode, we break down the difference between reverse diets, recovery diets, and aggressive rebound phases, explaining when each approach actually makes sense. We also cover how to manage hunger, recovery, cardio, food increases, hormones, and the psychology of the post-show phase so you can set yourself up for your best offseason yet.
