#248: The Extreme Side Effects of Contest Prep

3D Muscle Journey

Brad, Alberto, and Jeff discuss the weird and sometimes scary things that happen when we push our body to the extreme. The coaches share crazy things they have seen and had happen to them during prep.

What happened to Jeff when he was vitamin K deficient during one of his preps? What is sleep eating and what are the potential causes? How did being too extreme lead to Jeff’s heart skipping beats and him having to take a month off of lifting and work? What else besides mysterious rashes and skin aches after refeeds have the coaches seen or heard about from athletes during prep? What are Brad's fears around prepping this year after not having prepped for 10 years?

The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
