PREP FILES EP 6: ‘what do emotions have to do with it’ - when prep gets you good!

Hello friends - I am back with the next instalment of PREP FILES where I take you with me on my journey to the WBFF stage in October.

Oh my days, 13 weeks you guys!! How exciting! This was the first week I truly felt like I was in prep - it got me good! But I truly loved the challenge and feel like if I can get through that I can get through anything! As well as all things prep related I answered all your fantastic questions at the end.

Some of the things I cover off in this episode:

• Hardest week so far
• Lockdown life
• ‘What do emotions have to do with it’
• Plan B/C/D for if shows get cancelled/pushed back and my mindset around that
• Importance of rest and recovery
• Full update on my stats, condition, weight/cm loss, challenges, goals
• Listener Q&A! Including:
  • Dealing with emotions during that time of the month in prep
  • Do you get hungry on prep, if so, what are some tricks you used (mindset or otherwise)?
  • Do you feel lockdown will give you a disadvantage over other athletes on show day?
  • Weird cravings
  • Will your show be live streamed?
  • How to choose the evening wear dress for WBFF?
