Welcome back to The Results Method Podcast.

In this episode, Alicia Kyrgios and Sarah Priestley take you inside a real athlete check-in, five weeks out from the FMG Gold Coast show and nine weeks out from FMG Italy.

This week threw up a curveball. Midweek, Sarah had already dropped 800 grams, nearly double their target rate of loss. Instead of celebrating, Ally flagged it as a red flag and made immediate adjustments. More food. Less output. And the result? Sarah looked fuller, sharper, and continued to lose fat.

If that sounds backwards, this episode is for you.

Ally breaks down exactly why pushing harder at this stage of prep is one of the most common and costly mistakes she sees, and what she did instead to protect Sarah's muscle, performance, and stage-ready physique.

In this episode we discuss:

This is what a real, collaborative, data-driven prep looks like from the inside. No guessing, no pushing through, no shrink-at-all-costs mentality.

Ally and Sarah share two very different seasons of life right now, with Ally navigating postpartum recovery and newborn life, and Sarah deep in competition prep. On paper their routines look completely different, but the principles they use to create results are exactly the same.

In this episode we discuss:
