What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

The latest one on macros with Sarah & Ben was fantastic! Specific, practical ideas. I love all the simple tips like GHughes terriyaki & sweet chili sauce or freezing things to take when flying. Those may be common knowledge to bodybuilders but not something I have ever heard. There’s a different mindset among competitors that can be really helpful to lifestyle clients like me. Sometimes I skip a lot of the show’s chit-chat trying to find actionable info. This episode sounded like there was an outline! Loved this & would love more with Sarah & Ben & this structure. (also not much profanity if any was great.) The Brett Contraris interview had some good specifics on basic exercises as well. I like specific actionable info! And mindset!

This show put words to my personal experience with body building. I started this sport when I was 55, and can’t believe it took me this long to find it! For my whole life, I’ve criticized my physique and tried to make it look like a cardio bunny. (Thin legs, waif like, some tone) likely because I’m a product of the 80’s. Think super models😊Body building celebrates my curves, my bigger legs, my hourglass figure. It has become part of my identity, and I’ve only competed once. But I still consider myself a body builder. It’s done nothing but good things for me on every level. I love the way you guys really laid out ppl’s various perspectives on the sport. Mainly, it’s really helped me learn to love and embrace the physique I was born with. Thank you guys for diving deep here!

I have learned so much from this podcast- from what to expect in prep to mindset shifts that are helping me get through this build phase. Keep it up, ProPhysique- this podcast is such a wealth of knowledge!

I am a HUGE fan of the prep series. As a bodybuilder who is yet to compete, learning from experience and expertise from a variety of coaches from different divisions is so helpful to understand the complexity of the sport. I’ve found helpful tips for meal prepping, growth mindset, the harsh realities of competing, and the nitty gritty from judge’s feedback, breast augmentations, and back stage tips! I can’t get enough of this podcast and wish they’d upload two times a week instead of once! I look forward to it each week🥹🫶🏽

IzzyEstraddda · Mar 2023

Wow this is the most ad filled fitness/prep podcast I’ve ever listened to. There were like 6 different ads mostly no shameless plug/self promo it’s very cringe honestly. If we wanted those info we would seek them out ourselves. Or just include them in show notes… but interrupting a question that is being answered with an ad that has nothing to do with the question is bad.
