004: Performance vs. Physique Goals: Which Is Healthier?

Today, I'm flying solo and unpacking my thoughts as we close in on the finish of this bodybuilding prep. I break down the difference in training for performance vs. physique goals and their impacts on your health. Along with why routine blood work is beneficial, the difference between overtraining and overreaching, and my future training goals. Thank you all so much for the love and support on the re-brand of this podcast! The feedback has been incredible, and I can't wait to bring you even more great episodes.
