Season 2 Ep. 95 - He Broke a RECORD Winning 3 Bodybuilding Classes in ONE show

from Dumbbells & Doobies · host Zach Devalkenaere

This week on the D2 Podcast, we break down one of the craziest bodybuilding experiences we’ve ever had — peak week leading into show day where we took home THREE class wins. From the mental battles, strict routines, and unpredictable body changes… to stepping on stage and executing — this episode gives you a raw, behind-the-scenes look at what peak week is really like. We talk about: •The exact peak week routine (steps, sauna, training, diet) •Why conditioning is better over everything at higher-level shows •The importance of a strong support system during prep •The mental side of bodybuilding (and how extreme it can get) •Why peak week workouts actually suck •What it felt like to step on stage and win all 3 classes •What’s next heading into nationals This episode is for anyone serious about bodybuilding — or anyone who wants to understand the discipline, sacrifice, and mindset it takes to win.
