171: NUTRITION FOR PERFORMANCE, BACKSTAGE PUMP-UP STRATEGIES & ESSENTIAL GYM ACCESSORIES

Welcome to episode 171 of the Bodybuilding Down Under podcast! This week, we dig into a range of nuanced questions around training performance, supplementation, show-day preparation, and the mindset required to operate at the pro level in natural bodybuilding. Here’s what we cover: 🔹 Structuring peri-workout nutrition – Timing, composition, and how to individualise 🔹 Best backstage pump-up strategy – Dumbbells vs bands, timing, and muscle prioritisation 🔹 Small tools, big impact – What equipment and accessories actually improves gym performance? 🔹 Creatine deep dive – Is Creapure worth it, or is all creatine monohydrate created equal? 🔹 The biggest mindset shift to turn pro – What separates high-level athletes mentally 🔹 MSG in the off-season – Does it count toward sodium intake, and can it enhance food palatability? As always, we aim to break down each question with evidence, real-world application, and perspective from experience in the sport.
