Listen "#38: Competition Coaching for Bodybuilding & Powerlifting"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Brad Loomis, Alberto Nunez, and Andrea Valdez chat about what they do on show day and meet day for our athletes.
BODYBUILDING-SPECIFIC questions that are addressed:
How do they pick shows for athletes when we can?
How do they manipulate the physique in accordance with certain judging criteria?
What planning protocols do they feel like people miss?
How do they make themselves useful back stage in terms of physical and emotional management of the athlete?
POWERLIFTING-SPECIFIC questions that are addressed:
How do they select attempts before the meet day, and what would cause them to change our mind?
When does the total matter more than a certain weight lifted and vice versa?
What is their role on the platform, and how do they become the "soccer mom" for all athletes at big meets?
How does this entire planning process change based on athletes experience level and whether or not they've competed before?
