Summary

Work With Me 1:1 Coaching - https://ericrobertsfitness.com/erf-1on1.html On today's episode I sit down with Coach Judy and her client Allia, who has been through something most people never actually finish — a full bulk, a cut, and multiple stretches of maintenance, all with her sanity mostly intact. I wanted to bring Allia on because she's a real example of what it looks like when you actually trust the process across every phase, even when the rules feel like they completely flip on you. We get into what the bulk was really like mentally and physically, why maintenance might be the most underrated goal in fitness, and why having a coach isn't just about the program — it's about having somewhere to put the noise in your head so you don't make a dumb decision at 11pm.
