Britt Sederholm joins me today to talk about something we say all the time: "being about the process." How does one get to a place where they love the process of achieving their fitness goals? How can you use little hits of dopamine to become a process oriented and growth minded individual? We give our take on the answers to those questions in today's episode, and share insight from our own fitness journeys and coaching experiences of tapping into the power of dopamine.

Today Mark and I are discussing the different variables and considerations involved in having a successful offseason to show up on stage next time with a truly improved package.

This episode is catered more towards the physique athlete, but anyone who is looking to build muscle should take notes. Today's topics include:

• Transitioning into an off season post prep : what are some of the immediate goals, what does the process look like 
• Calorie increases, what does a “bulk” look like
• Training, Mark's philosophies and beating the logbook
• Keeping your head in the game in a building phase
• Mini cuts 
• How do you know you’re ready to prep again
