  20. The Cost of Chasing Feedback

    Episode 389

    Show notes

    As competitors we know the importance of feedback. But there is also a cost to chasing critique especially when it comes to your physique!

    Judges feedback is important, feedback from social media? Not so much!

    Feedback can also sometimes seem conflicting - buzzwords like conditioning, fullness, size and density all need context!
