PREP FILES EP 2: What happens when your weight doesn’t drop? Importance of trusting your coach, motivation vs. discipline, and listener Q&A!

We are back with the next instalment of PREP FILES where I take you with me on my journey to the WBFF stage in October.

It’s been a month since episode one, so I was hopefully there was going to be lots of fun things to chat about! But to be honest, I was feeling a bit demotivated from my weight not dropping and a bit of stress going on in my life - I didn’t really feel like I had anything to update you on. But then I realised, that there in itself it the update.

Prep isn’t always exciting and eventful. More often than not it’s just putting one foot in front of the other, trying to keep your head in the game, be patient and focus on the process. 

Some of the things I cover off in this episode:

• Why I am seeing a psychologist (for prep)
• How I’m dealing with some injuries
• My biggest wins right now
• What happens when your weight doesn’t drop?
• Dealing with an acne flair up and skin infection on my face?!?
• Stress and its effect on my body
• Importance of trusting your coach
• Diet slip ups 
• Motivation vs. discipline when it comes to training
• Listener Q&A! Including:
  • How do you copy with dieting i.e. food anxiety?
  • Line for a coach between tough love and support - how to know the difference in prep?
  • What to expect in peak week and show day for a first timer + tips

And PLENTY more weird and wonderful things as usual.
