Weight gain post comp – “it’s a necessary part of our sport unless you want to bring the same (or smaller) package to stage year after year”
Love this post! Thank you Dana! ???? had to share this one as well!!
Some people struggle mentally with putting on weight post comp – I’ve been there in the past too.
It’s hard to diet for 30 weeks and create a beautiful stage lean body, then spend weeks deliberately putting that body fat back on.
But it’s a necessary part of our sport.
Remaining lean hinders physique progression, and unless you want to bring the same (or smaller) package to stage year after year, you need to spend time in a calorie surplus for muscle growth – and that means increasing body fat.
There is 10kg difference between the photo on the left (current) and the photo on the right (1 year ago).
To be honest, I’m actually excited about the process of putting on body fat over the coming months.
Not only does it mean I’ll be able to train more effectively and improve my physique for next season, but it means I can include some delicious foods in my diet that I have chosen not to eat while on low cals.
Abs are nice, but food is nicerer ?
