Podcast episode from OTL (Online Trainer Lizenz Podcast) explaining how bodybuilders eat during contest preparation. Covers that bodybuilding prioritizes appearance over performance, and that in preparation the aim is to preserve muscle while losing fat—often reducing bodyfat from typical athletic ~15% down to single digits (commonly 5–6%). Nutrition is carbohydrate-focused with moderate protein and minimal fat; specific targets given: fat often reduced to ~0.5 g/kg bodyweight and protein during an intensive diet at ~2.3–2.7 g/kg. Low-carb/ketogenic approaches are mentioned but the speaker emphasizes calorie deficit as the driver of fat loss and recommends carbohydrate-focused diets to maintain training intensity. The episode also describes peak-week strategies (glycogen depletion/loading and water/sodium/potassium manipulation) typically starting ~2 weeks out with increased fluid/sodium, carbohydrate depletion, then 2–3 days before the show drastically reducing sodium and fluid while increasing carbohydrates and potassium to shift water intracellularly and maximize muscle definition.
