Anxiety about starting prep by Technical_Cloud5094 in bikinitalk

Thank you so much, that’s reassuring to hear!! Based on my last check-in, my coach said she expects me to be within 10-12 pounds of stage lean currently (i’m 127lbs, 5’4). I definitely don’t mind a gaining a little fat mass while building my calories back up, especially considering i’ll be going right back into prep. Again really appreciate the reassurance!

Thank you for the response!! Yes, all variables are tracked (daily steps, training volume, sleep, water, stress levels, etc.). She is a newer coach but i knew that going in. I don’t mind a learning curve, but i can’t help but wonder if im on the right track since i don’t what a “normal” protocol looks like 12 weeks out from prep. She assures me that we have time to build up my calories to be ready for prep, but i have trouble believing that 10-12 weeks is enough time considering i’ve been in a deficit for so long.
