EP. 27: Peak Week Recommendations For Bodybuilders | Andrew Chappell

In the final days of competition preparation, bodybuilders usually implement interventions to "peak" their body to maximize contest day aesthetics. These interventions aim to 3) maximize muscle glycogen content to enhance muscle "fullness," 2) minimize subcutaneous water to look dry, and 3) minimize abdominal bloating to maintain a small waistline. But how may one accomplish all these? - Dr. Andrew Chappell provides us with some insight!
