Episode 63: Coaches Recap: NPC MIDWEST; Confidence, Stage Readiness and Trusting Your Coach

On this week’s episode we are back on the mic after an exciting weekend seeing friends, past clients and coaching our incredible team of competitors at the NPC Midwest Championships in St Louis!  We’re catching you up on what we’ve been up to: Mandy’s growing farm and Gillian’s prep for her IFBB bikini pro debut in just over a month’s time!As coaches, we share some insight into how we help our athletes develop confidence for the stage and how preparedness can differ from readiness on your contest prep journey.  We discuss the importance of being able to openly communicate with your coach having trust in them and the process, as well as the value in experience over immediate success in the sport of bodybuilding.  While every athlete dreams of taking home that first place medal, we share our insight on why we feel the emphasis should not be on placings, rather, the personal growth experienced on the journey to the stage!  We hope that you enjoyed this episode, and if so, we would LOVE it if you would rate, subscribe, and leave us reviews on how this podcast has helped you 💕 We’d also love to hear from you about future topics you would like us to discuss so please leave us a comment or reach out to us with your questions and suggestions!About Momshell Method Fitness:Ready to embark on your fitness journey?  We would love to help you reach any fitness goal from losing the baby weight to crushing your competition goals!  Follow this link to schedule a discovery call with one of our team members and learn how Momshell Method Fitness can provide you with the tools you need to be successful with customized nutrition and training plans for busy moms → http://bit.ly/loseweightgetsexyContact your hosts:Mandy Rochon Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/mandyrochonfit/ Facebook: Mandy RochonGillian Hughes, IFBB Bikini ProInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gillianhughes_momshell/Facebook: Gillian HughesMandy’s Posing Sessions1:1 In Person (KC Posing Studio) →  https://bit.ly/inpersonposingwithmandy1:1 Virtual Posing → https://bit.ly/virtualposingwithmandyPosing with Gillian Hughes, IFBB Bikini Pro1:1 In Person (St Louis Posing Studio) → https://bit.ly/stlposingwithgillianifbbpro1:1 Virtual Posing → https://bit.ly/virtualposingwithgillianifbbproNuethyx Formulations Supplements → https://nuethix.com/(Use code “Momshell” to save 10% off your order)Toxic Angelz Bikinis → https://toxicangelzbikinis.com (Use code “GILLIAN” or code “MANDY”  to save 15% off your order)MISAJO Sports —> https://shopsiham.com/collections/workout(Use code “GILLIAN10” to save 10% off your order)Squeeze Me Skinny Waist Trainers → https://www.squeezmeskinny.com (Use code “MOMSHELL” to save 10% off your order)The Shoe Fairy competition heels → https://www.shoefairyofficial.com (Use code “momshell” to save 15% off your order)Labwork and Personalized Recommendations:  Practitioner Depot: https://bit.ly/practitionerdepotxmomshell (Use code “momshell” to save 5% off your order)Our Amazon storefront- fitness outfits, more supplements, beauty items and competition needs → https://amzn.to/46GL1nd
