#20: The Recovery Diet


Listen Later

In this episode, Eric Helms, Jeff Alberts, and Andrea Valdez talk about the post-contest recovery diet phase.
In particular, the coaches discuss the various effects of the sport that begin to occur immediately after you get off of a bodybuilding stage, all the way through the weeks, months, and sometimes years following the competition season.
(For the general prescription of what the 3DMJ coaches do with their athletes during their recovery diet, click here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDKhDjuPfbU )
Within this episode, the coaches dive further into their personal post-contest season phases and many of the ways they've continued to get better at it over the years.
They also cover the following topics as it pertains to the end of a bodybuilding season:
- Body fat distribution
- Libido for men and women
- Healing the athlete's relationships with food
- Psychological distractions from weight gain
- The amount of body fat one should expect to put on
- How your reason for competing effects the way you recover
- How the coaches judge when someone is fully recovered and ready to begin their extended off-season
