I have back another special guest, Mark Tomanek who is someone I greatly value in the industry of bodybuilding. For many, it may feel like he's come up overnight but I can tell you, this is not the case. We discuss integrity, high quality coaching, fighting an uphill battle, and following your moral compass despite that "get there quick" mentality to just produce athletes time and time again without consideration of the long term consequences of that.  If you like it, please share it and leave a review!

The holiday season can be a struggle for many people. ON AVERAGE Americans gain ~7lbs during this time of the year.

As a leader, coach, and 2x olympian in the bodybuilding world Jami is someone I have admired for a long time. This was an amazing conversation that gives a ton of perspective that I think athletes as well as coaches will find beneficial! We Talk About:  Her story Starting FBF Building a Team Mentorship & Onboarding The mindset to play the long game, levels of coaching, and SO MUCH MORE! Her Instagram: @jamidebernard Team: @fitbodyfusion My IG: @kaitannmichelle Team: @team.levlup

It's important to understand that inevitably adaptations WILL happen when dieting especially to the levels of leanness required to compete in bodybuilding. The most important factor is understanding that the recovery aspect is just as, if not more, important than the prep itself.

First, the goal is never to change coaches along your journey and Jen and I discuss her coaching swaps, reasons, and I share some of my experience as well. We aim to shed light on what you need to do and how to progress in your coaching relationship as changing coaches isn't something that should be happening all the time and the right coach for you isn't necessarily the one that is right for your best friend. I hope that you enjoy this conversation and of course if you have follow up questions or guests you would like to see slide in the DM!

There is a lot of conversation right now in the Bodybuilding world as to what is OK and what is not as far as coaching protocols. In this episode I hope to give some perspective as I understand how invested we can become in the outcome of the process. There are no pointing fingers here as that is not the goal, there is accountability to be had with every party and the only way to change things is to self-reflect and align ourselves with the goals we have while being very aware of the personal boundaries that need to be established.
