The Flex Diet Podcast is brought to you by the Flex Diet Certification. Go to flexdiet.com for 8 interventions on nutrition and recovery. Enrollment is open now through midnight Monday, July 26th. If you are past the enrollment window, you can sign up for my free newsletter to be notified when the course reopens. Bodybuilders are known for fat loss and holding on to as much muscle as possible. Today, I’ve got Dr. Guillermo Escalante who authored a new paper on peak week recommendations for bodybuilders (linked in notes). His team pulled together what the evidence and research show about peak week before stepping on stage. Even if you’re not a bodybuilder, if your goal is to look leaner before an event or vacation, take a listen.
