Finally getting around to sharing professional pics from the @ocbyortoncup from a few weeks ago.So happy with how this season went and the opportunity to compete at the highest level of natural bodybuilding.So many great memories made with friends and lots of valuable lessons learned for future preps and things I can use with my own athletes.Bodybuilding is such a self driven sport focused on constant pursuit of the best version of ourselves that sometimes we overlook the moment we’re in.I have no regrets from this season, I accomplished everything I wanted and I gave everything to all phases of my life in the process.Grateful for my friend and coach @willcarternlf for helping me navigate this season and bring improvements from show to show.What excites me is that bodybuilding is a long term game and I’ve got years to keep pursuing progress.The process of bodybuilding is what I love and competing is the icing on top.I’m going to take advantage of a few years of growth and enjoy life away from the stage.Until next time 🤝@nlfcoaching @nolimitsfit by @nate_48

Core development is often criminally undertrained for the majority of people and I’ve been guilty of this myself.But when you lean down for a bodybuilding show or just diet in general you can’t reveal what’s not there.Yourcore needs to be progressively trained like any other muscle group if you want it to stand out!#bodybuilding #coach #naturalbodybuilding #gym by @nate_48

A continuation of last weeks topic of progressive overload A common mistake when chasing the log book is overshooting load increases causing stall out and even potential injury!Progress will be and should be slow and steady!Don’t let ego get in your way, a 2.5lb increase is still progress and long term it adds up!Blending intensity and smart training is the formula for elevating your training and your physique long term.Don’t be in a race to get as strong as possible be in a competition with yourself to win every set!#bodybuilding #naturalbodybuilding #ocb #fitness by @nate_48

Understanding the work required to achieve what you think you want is so important in anything in life!Without awareness around these things you’ll never be satisfied!This applies to fitness, business, etc.People see someone’s journey online and think I want to look like that or be doing what they’re doing.What people don’t see is the work that goes on behind the scenes.Relating this to fitness, watching someone’s journey online that that has an incredible physique and walks around at very low bodyfat percents and saying I want that.You have to understand the level of discipline and rigidness with their training and diet that person has put forth to look that way.Great conversation with the man @the_muscle_doc yesterday thank you for your time brother 👊🏼@nolimitsfit #podcast #bodybuilding #fitness #prescript by @nate_48

One of the biggest mistakes that I see bodybuilders make in the offseason is letting the good habits they had during prep slip up once the motivation of the stage goes away!One of the best ways to help you stay locked in and motivated with your offseason starts in the kitchen.Staying organized with your nutrition sets you up for success in all aspects of your week!Regardless of what phase of my fitness journey I’m in I’ll always make time for preparing my food because it sets the tone for the week.When you’re prepared and organized with one of the big pillars of your day everything else can get more of your attention!Need structure and accountability with your bodybuilding or fitness journey?DM me or click the link in my bio for coaching inquiries #bodybuilding #naturalbodybuilding #fitness #coach #nutrition by @nate_48

Let’s breakdown the layout of my current leg day structure with one full leg day a week on a 4 day training rotation ⬇️I begin the session with hamstrings, abduction and calves to get my knees and hips primed for my main movements.Hack squats and leg press.I do 3 sets of both here followed by some glute and dynamic adductor work.I do quad extensions on Mondays right now and I’ve got a lot of knee dominant work on today’s session so I have been keeping those on separate days so I can recover from the volume.Right now my focus is checking all the boxes I need to with my training while managing my coaching workload.I’m a big believer that your training split needs to fit into your schedule not consume it.Right now this is a great structure for me and I feel like I’m recovering and progressing nicely with this format.You don’t need 6 days in the gym to grow.3-5 days of good structured training will take you a long ways.Need help with your training?

Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be all or nothing ⬇️The longer I’ve been around the sport the more I’ve learned that balance is so important for protecting your energy with things you’re really passionate about!Relating this to bodybuilding and handling it at a high level while balancing family and business I think it’s something that can’t be explained until you’ve been through it.Once you’ve gone through a few preps you start to realize you can give bodybuilding your best while also protecting your relationships away from bodybuilding.The people in your corner shouldn’t suffer because you’re choosing to prep.Once you’ve gone through it you can learn to relax and just follow and enjoy your process. Everything runs smoother and I believe your physique improves.Being high stress throughout your bodybuilding prep will negatively effect your physique and your relationships with others if you let it.This is why I coach my clients to plan their year out so we can include social life in their prep and make the process more enjoyable and sustainable for the athlete and their family.Fantastic conversation today with @3dmj_godfather and @willcarternlf on the @nlfcoaching podcast 🤝Jeff is one of the brightest minds in the industry and has 40 years of experience training, coaching and competing!@nolimitsfit #bodybuilding #naturalbodybuilding #prep by @nate_48
