Luke and Holly discuss what the differences are in training goals versus just going to the gym to "work out".
There is a BIG difference in your lifestyle and your goals, and where you should focus your efforts.

Catching up on some pre competition talk on the swolemates Episode 18
2022 was a whirlwind of a prep really-going back to figure after 8 years of prepping for women's physique was quite a change.
I worked with a posing coach this time which made a HUGE difference. We will continue to bring you weekly content about bodybuilding life, competition prep, offseason gains, and all the health and fitness talk you can probably stand!
Please let us know if you have topics you'd like to discuss or have us cover-we have some cheat days planned (maybe already completed one but not sure we documented LOL) Let us know what you'd like to see! and please SHARE and COMMENT and of course LIKE if you want us to continue-we appreciate you so much!
Swolemates Update #16
Please SHARE our content if you like it; it helps us so much if just one more person can join in our YouTube family each week! Please ask questions and follow our journeys together as "swolemates". I

Please let us know your thoughts about "influencers" pretending to be natty! Also, please, please don't fall into the comparison trap on social media. We all come from different backgrounds, have different bodies, genetics, and goals. You are uniquely YOU, so your plan must be one that you can realistically stick to over time, as well as your nutrition. There is NO quick fix! Be dedicated and consistent and you will get there!
Swolemates Update #15
Y'all it has been quite a minute since I have posted a video! My competition is now over, and I placed first in Figure 50+ and second in open Figure in my height class. I definitely think it was my best show so far, and now we are just back to the drawing board and trying to put on some more muscle. We would love to have your support in growing this channel! Let us know in the comments what you would like to discuss, learn more about, or are just interested in. This channel is all about fitness, mostly bodybuilding, but often some health and wellness topics as well.

Today, Luke and Holly discuss where they are in their competition prep/offseason. The main discussion is about supplements-what do you need and why? What are the favorites and most useful?

A question from one of our followers: should your workouts change when you are trying to lose fat? It's a common theory that when prepping for a show or trying to cut fat, you might increase your reps in your workout and possibly even lower the weight used. Luke and Holly will discuss this topic today, along with their weekly update in progress.
Holly is currently about 15 weeks out from her planned April 2022 competition (currently around 152 lbs, 16% bodyfat)
Luke is a few months past his last competition, the Yorton Cup (October 2021)-trying to keep growing and keep bodyfat gain to a minimum. His next competition will likely be later this year (to hopefully qualify for the Yorton Cup). He is currently around 210 lbs and likely still under 10% bodyfat, but we will update soon with progress pictures.
