Bikini Competitions - Are They Worth It?

Oct 1, 2017

Coming at you today for a solo episode all about competing in the NPC Bikini division. I've competed in 12 shows, included competing at and placing top five in multiple national level shows, and I've "been around the block" with competing. Some of what I cover in this episode:

-My competition history,

-Being misdiagnosed with PCOS

-Common judging terms in the bikini division

-How much time is ideal between shows within a season

-How long should your offseason be

-Drug use in the NPC

-Getting bloodwork and how to get bloodwork when your doctor won't order it (referenced sites: PrivateMDLabs and AnyLabsNow)

-Learning to read your own biofeedback

-The impact of competing on relationships

-Body image distortion

-Health implications/risks of competing in bodybuilding

-A looooot more!
