from The Macro Lounge Podcast · host Chris Bold and Rachel Mead
FOMO might be the most underrated physique killer in the sport.In this week's episode, Chris and Rachel get into the real reason so many athletes stall out year after year - and it's not their training program. From prep envy to watching your competitor walk away with a pro card, to skipping your sister's wedding for a regional show, FOMO shows up in more ways than most people admit.They cover:Why competing out of FOMO often costs you more muscle than it gains youHow to actually "math out" whether a season is worth itThe difference between FOMO and the fear of being left behindWhy Instagram has turned bodybuilding into a spectator sportHow to balance life goals alongside competing goalsWhy the stage will always be there - but some moments won'tPlus, Chris confesses the most expensive FOMO decision he ever made (his wife (the producer) will definitely have opinions on this), and Rachel weighs in on whether going broke to compete at Worlds was worth it.Raw, honest, and genuinely useful for anyone who's ever texted their coach mid-off-season asking to start prep.Like and subscribe on Spotify and YouTube - it helps more than you'd think.Find us here:🎧 Follow The Macro Lounge on Spotify📸 Instagram: @macro_lounge_podcast▶ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheMacroLoungePodcast📩 Email: [email protected]Work with us:👙 Posing School: Accentuate Posing Academy https://www.instagram.com/accentuate_posing_academy/💪 Coaching with Chris: Team Bold Physique https://www.instagram.com/teamboldphysique/✨ Competition Bikinis with Rachel: Accentuate Bikinis https://www.instagram.com/accentuatebikinis/
