Yes, I have done a few shows, 60 to be exact!
Competing in a physique contest is not just about your very brief time on stage.
It is more to do with the journey to the stage, as you attempt to morph your body into the best shape of it’s life.
What you learn about yourself along the way is amazing. You use and acquire traits like self-discipline, resiliency, organisational skills, time management, focus, determination, drive, creativity, mental acuity, problem solving and an overall extreme desire to be the best version of yourself which is not just restricted the way you look.
I often say to clients and friends that you “get in the zone”.
If you’ve seen the awesome Bradley Cooper movie, “Limitless”, you’ll remember the magic pill NZT 48 which turned him into an instant genius with a limitless drive and focus.
If you do contest prep right, then you’ll experience this in varying degrees.
Also, the awesome like-minded people you meet along the way, particularly at State, National and International contests, are something you can treasure for the rest of your life.
And finally, after the show, you can enjoy the memories and then go to work to plan your next outing and a way to be even better than before!!
