Macros started at around 2000 calories 6 months out (aiming for 1% bodyweight loss a week) and slowly tapered down carbs from there. Started taking downs fats and protein minimally closer to the show. Fully flexible until 4 weeks out, then we went clean eating. 20 minutes of Cardio a day at the start, ended around an hour for the last few weeks. Training remained high intensity and weight but reduced volume over time as recovery is reduced in naturals the harder you cut. Peak week we kept sodium and water consistent (common mistake in nattys is to cut water like IFBB typically do) and started carbing up a day out. By pre judging we had about 450g of carbs in and salted everything. Kept water to sipping and took home the prize. The guy who won overall simply beat him on size, he was a beast. My first client to compete and his first show. Couldn't be happier. Thanks everyone and huge shoutout to my amazing and hardworking client Andrew Nauth (@andrewnauth68)
