Eric, Alberto, and Jeff discuss how they review an athlete’s season with the athlete to help them process their emotions, see their achievements, develop a perspective that is going to help them, and determine what they need to work on in the offseason to have a better physique and prep next time they compete. What can you do to help you process a show or season where you didn’t place as well as you wanted, so that you have a more positive outlook on the experience? Why is it critical to know your limits and have realistic expectations going into a show or season? How can you channel your competitive drive to support your goals as well as to help prevent a big emotional fallout? How do the coaches help an athlete decide on what body parts to focus on in the offseason? How much weight should you give the judges’ feedback? When you’re critiquing your physique, should you compare it to the physiques of the other athletes that were in your lineup, or should you critique it on its own? The answers to these, plus many other questions are covered in this episode.
