#244: Your Default Diet

3D Muscle Journey

Brad, Eric, and Alberto discuss how as a bodybuilder becomes more ingrained in the bodybuilding lifestyle, the structure of their contest preps and the structure of their offseasons start to become more and more similar.

What did Eric and Alberto's offseasons look like 10+ years ago compared to what they look like now? How does understanding macros work synergistically with having a meal plan? How can you tell if you have a solid structure and if it's working? Where is a good place to start when setting up your default diet? How might variations and amounts of foods change depending on what kind of phase you're in?

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