201: PREP GREEN FLAGS, FLEXIBLE DIETNG & LIES ATHLETES TELL THEMSELVES

Welcome to episode 201 of the Bodybuilding Down Under Podcast! In this episode, we kick things off with a recap of the second BDU Lift & Greet before diving into some talking points.   We explore where the line sits between self-improvement and self-obsession in bodybuilding, what green flags coaches look for before taking someone into a contest prep, and whether flexible dieting has ultimately helped or hurt athletes.   We also get into when to adjust your program during prep, the biggest lies athletes tell themselves throughout the process, the long-term costs of repeated preps, and whether elite bodybuilding and long-term health can genuinely coexist. To wrap things up, we tackle the question of when a coach stops serving the athlete and starts serving the outcome.    Instagram Handles: Bodybuilding Down Under: https://www.instagram.com/bodybuildingdownunder/?hl=en    Jack: https://www.instagram.com/jack.radfordsmith/     Daniel C: https://www.instagram.com/daniel.chapelle/    Lawrence: https://www.instagram.com/general.muscle/    Daniel Y: https://www.instagram.com/dy.fit/
