A spouse describes being the home coach and cook for a competitive bodybuilder, managing strict nutrition, precise timing, and constant motivation. The work is obsessive and logistical, from meal prep to emotional support during contest preparation.
So you're married to a bodybuilder. Now bodybuilders, as my wife tells me, we're a little bit obsessive. We can be a little bit demanding, and when it comes to everyone in the universe only eating what we need, we can get a little bit particular. So what is it really like living with a bodybuilder and a coach like me?
Well, you just have to look at it from their perspective. I mean, you know, you guys are working and striving for perfection. And that is just the role that I have to play in for him and helping him with all his needs. Not just being food, but just motivation when it's coming into workouts. You know, when you're getting 2 weeks or, you know, 5 days out of a contest that you've worked 6 months and prepped for. So I'm just there mainly on the— I should say I'm the back to his muscle. I keep them together. So with all that— Your name's home coach. His home coach. Yeah, his home coach and cook. So being, um, Detail with everything that he needs is the number one thing. And you guys, you know how it goes in your house, but it's all about you at some times, and you just have to be there to support him and everything he needs.
