      Bodybuilding: The Complete Contest Preparation Handbook offers scientifically supported and experience-based guidelines to help you have your best show ever. There are detailed posing tips, food and fluid plans, strategies for contest weekend, and postshow recovery tactics.
      The popularity of bodybuilding is at an all-time high, and the sport is continuing to grow. But seasoned competitors and beginners often have questions about how to look their best on show day. Written by expert bodybuilding coaches Peter Fitschen and Cliff Wilson, Bodybuilding: The Complete Contest Preparation Handbook will guide you through every step of the process to select a competition, prepare for the contest, and make the transition to the off-season. With no other book like it on the market, Bodybuilding offers you scientifically supported and experience-based guidelines to help you have your best show ever.

      Bodybuilding takes the guesswork out of preparing for a contest and answers common questions such as these:
      • How do I choose the competition and division that are right for me?
      • What mandatory poses do I need to learn for my competition?
      • What is the best workout to do during contest prep?
      • What should I do if I start to spill over during peak week?
      • How long is too long to maintain stage-lean levels of body fat?
      The authors have created an easily accessible handbook that guides you step by step. The chapters begin with a background of the sport, followed by a discussion of the competitive division options for both men and women. The next chapters will help you through the process of obtaining a stage-ready physique with an evidence-based approach that combines scientific literature with practical experience. These chapters discuss important topics such as nutrition, training, and preparation timing.

      The next chapters address posing, peak week, tanning, and a number of other topics that will help you bring your most polished physique to the stage. More than 60 full-color photos show body types for each division and each mandatory pose, offering a visual guide to the proper positions for each pose. You will also find information on how to handle the transition to the off-season.

      With unparalleled detail, Bodybuilding is your go-to guide for bodybuilding success!
