With the Bodybuilding season in full swing, I’ve found a list I made a couple of years ago which helped so much for future shows that took in all the info from previous first few events in the days leading into & during the shows that saved a lot of time! Here are some lessons from those first few comps…
💪Create a specific folder in your inbox for all the details for your competition, payments made, timings, music, hotel confirmations etc ✉️
💪Make a list of all food and liquids needed for the trip, the day before, during and post comp (planning this helps particularly when competing on a Sunday with shops potentially open later, you need to plan ahead)🍴
💪Take double of EVERYTHING – (e.g side story….honey dripping from a rice cake didn’t create a great look on my trunks that one time! 😂)🍯😳
💪Pack spare bedsheets for the night before after your base tan🛏
💪If you can, go for a walk to the venue the day before….it takes that stress away on show day knowing the best route there
💪Check out Parking before getting to the area….again takes a lot of stress away🚘
💪Everyone will have their own approach in the morning of…some will be buzzing, others nervous, everyone will have a different routine going into it😀
💪Enjoy it!
PS 💪 remember where you parked!!🤔
PPS 💪 Write down your experiences from the that show, to look back, lessons for next time, what went well etc📒
