Summary

Returning guest and close personal friend Austin Current (austincurrent_) is back to discuss what the maintenance phase of contest prep truly looks like. There are a lot of misconceptions about a maintenance phase and it doesn't get the credit it deserves. We also get super deep in this conversation, talking about the evolution of prep and what Austin's life has been like outside of prep and fitness. Topics include:

 

- Psychosocial Ramifications

- Looks vs Mindset

- Life Outside of Competing

- Maintenance Doesn't Mean No Progression

What's going on you guys? Welcome back to Embody Radio. I'm your host Emily Duncan. I hope that everyone is doing as well as we possibly can be given all of everything that's happening right now. You know, I think where a lot of us at least are starting to like make

0:14.7

it through that you know adjustment period where we're starting to get into our new

0:18.6

normals. We're starting to get into our new routines but it's's still, you know, really different and scary and it's a big unknown.

0:26.4

So I just wanted to send my love out there to all of you guys listening.

0:29.6

I hope that you guys are just hanging in there and that we're hanging in there together but from a distance.

0:36.8

And I mean what better way to learn while we've got some extra time on our hands then by listening to a good old

0:44.3

0:50.3

today I'm talking with my good friend Austin Current

0:53.3

Austin was on the show back in the summertime so you guys have heard from him

0:57.3

before and if not we are going to go ahead and link his previous episode in the

show notes here but today we are talking about maintenance

1:27.9

But the conversation took just a really lovely metaphoric turn and I think it is so I think it's so needed right now and I think just in the in the fitness sphere in general like this conversation is so needed and I hope you guys get just as much

1:43.9

out of this conversation as I did because I think there's just a lot of a little

1:47.4

little nuggets of wisdom to get from it or big nuggets of wisdom however whatever

1:51.5

size nugget is appropriate for you in this scenario.

1:55.6

But yeah, we're having a great conversation all about maintenance. So kick back, relax, and

2:00.7

listen to Austin and me talk about maintenance. Enjoy. I mean I'm down to talk
