Unfortunately the contact has stopped, he hasn't sent me a checkin for 1.5 weeks - he doesn't respond to messages, they disappear from IG, so unfortunately, I don't think we'll see an update - unless they decide to change the coach again...

Ouch hope he's okay and maybe just very busy or maybe even be ill.

Prep can make guys do funny old things

Drugs, high output and low food aside

I think once the comp gets to a few weeks away you realise there’s going to be no dramatic change happening and you don’t look anything like you’d hoped

Often just in our own heads thinking we look shit and we don’t …. Or in my case at my last comp I did

I honestly think a lot of guys would enjoy bodybuilding a lot more if they just lived the lifestyle minus the getting on stage , you’re no less of a bodybuilder just cause
You don’t get on a stage but you may save yourself the mental turmoil

Just my 0.2

I think nowadays there’s an issue though where a lot of (young) people pour their whole identity into something very early on in their journey of doing that thing, and that creates a lot of pressure vs the attitude of „it’s just something I do … maybe I can be good at it one day“. There seems to be a lack of identity beforehand or insecurity and the image of being a bodybuilder or xyz fills that „void“.

i do not know if it is a thing, but i saw so many different coaches that he mention on his stories, so i dont know if he changes coaches so often or he just tag them

Could not agree with you more!

Bodybuilding can and often does become all consuming and like you say becomes your whole identity which rarely happens quite so much with other hobbies but I think there also lies the issue most guys don’t have any other hobbies they’re bodybuilding 24/7 which I’ve fallen into the trap of and very nearly jacked it in completely because of it

Unless you’re literally the 1% making your living out of this then just have it as 1 aspect of your life not your whole existence

We see the top guys and often want to be like that but unfortunately 99% of us don’t have the genetics no matter how much effort we put into it

I think the reality is it requires the same dedication to win the Olympia or the Arnold’s where essentially you’re becoming a millionaire VS winning a local show where it costs you money to do and I think you’ve really gotta decide is it truly worth that same effort and sacrifice in all areas (health to) knowing you’re never EVER going to make it far competitively speaking if yes then absolutely you do you but I think most people don’t actually accept this and just think they’re a cycle or XYZ away from making it and just live a self fed lie and eventually reality sets in and they fall apart

You can lie to literally anyone in life but do yourself a favour and don’t lie to yourself

I don't understand this line of thinking to be completely honest.

If you love doing it, you will give your best anyways. It's not like I sit there and calculate what I put in vs. what I get out and then decide to only give x % because I think I will never make it to some level. I just love doing it, that's why I do it. It's not about winning anything or making it anywhere.

I think this is the only healthy way to succeed in anything. Do it because you love it. If the stars align, you will become very good or great. If not, then you lose nothing at all, because you just did what you loved doing.

Thinking in terms of return on investment as in winning or accolades already sounds like someone doesn't really genuinely enjoy the whole process to me.

Thanks for clarifying my point

If you’re not prepared for it, prep can turn you out in a minute. Between the mind games and the stuff you stated you’ve gotta be a little twisted to stick through your first prep.

This shouldn't be too much of a setback on your progress...just a bump in the road to greatness!
