Sarah welcomes Paul Oneid to The Beyond Condition Podcast to delve into how we monitor progression, the psychology behind obsession and many of the factors that drive bodybuilders to relentlessly pursue success. Obsession is unique to the individual and it can be used both wisely and mindlessly.

As competitive bodybuilders we strive to progress but what does that actually look like when competing in a subjective sport...

We all have our reasons to compete and our own intrinsic drivers that push us to continually progress but it’s the ability to stay clear in our endeavour that can become dampened. From comparison to others, social media pressure and not having clear vectors of progress we can end up lost without recognition to how far we have come on our journey.

Discussions include:
*Authenticity as a coach
*Social media and intellectual consistency
*Coaching and individualised programming
*Lifestyle bodybuilding and competitive bodybuilding
*Allostatic load and stress management
*Progression as a bodybuilder
*Marketing yourself as a coach
*Communication and clarity
*Burnout
*Managing time and efficiency
*Professional bodybuilding
*The different phases as a bodybuilder
*Identity
*Stress management
