With Season A wrapping up across Australia, we take a deep dive into one of the most challenging parts of competing: the post show period. We break down what prep has actually done to your body and mind, why your brain is in survival mode coming off stage, and why the hunger and food noise you're experiencing is your physiology doing exactly what it was designed to do. We cover redefining success post show, why chasing scale weight close to stage is a trap, and how the language around progression and regression needs to completely flip in the recovery phase. Enjoy!
