Contest prep is the most demanding thing you can ask of a client — and of yourself as a coach.

In this episode, Cody breaks down the full framework for taking a client from off-season to stage: who's actually ready to prep, how to build an honest timeline, managing nutrition and training as the show approaches, surviving the psychological grind, and why post-show recovery is the most important phase nobody talks about. If you coach physique clients — or want to — this is the blueprint.
