Things I still do even though I’m not in prep
Just because prep is over doesn’t mean all of my habits disappear.
I still hit my step count every day.
Consistency is something I live by. Just because I’m not prepping for a show doesn’t mean my daily movement suddenly stops being important.
I still eat the same meals.
My meals genuinely haven’t changed in the last year — and you know what? I’m perfectly happy with rinse and repeat. Same meals, different portion sizes depending on the goal.
I still train to a high standard.
I’m still training just as hard as I was during prep. I’m not suddenly slacking because I’m not dieting. Training hard, progressing and maintaining muscle is still a priority.
I still weigh my food to the exact gram.
If it’s 100g, it’s 100g — not 102g. It keeps things consistent and is simply a habit for me now.
And yes… I still drink black coffee. ☕️
At this point, it’s just what I order out of habit. No milk, no sugar — straight black.
Prep might be over, but the habits that helped me build my physique and stay consistent don’t need to disappear with it.
The goal changes. The standards don’t.
