210: WILL AI REPLACE YOUR BODYBUILDING COACH?

Welcome to Episode 210 of the Bodybuilding Down Under Podcast! After a quick catch up we dive into a topic that keeps coming up across the industry: AI in bodybuilding coaching. With AI now baked into everything from MyFitnessPal to check-in software, we debate whether it genuinely threatens coaching or whether the human side of the sport is simply irreplaceable. We cover where AI falls short in niche areas like peak week and show day decisions, why low-effort and cookie-cutter coaches are most at risk, and why the coach-athlete relationship during a deep prep is something no algorithm can replicate. We also share practical ways coaches can use AI as a tool for efficiency, from mapping out prep timelines to building custom check-in apps, without losing what actually matters. Enjoy!
