Send us a textWhenever I start talking about bulking, people always have a lot of questions because it seems completely counterintuitive to anything you would ever do. Like, why would you intentionally increase calories and want the scale to go up? If you think reverse dieting is mind-blowing, then bulking is like the next level.

So, let's dive into today's episode to have this conversation about bulking, what it is and what it is not. Find show notes at bicepsafterbabies.com/94 Follow me on Instagram!

Send us a textI don't normally have men on the podcast (besides my husband), so I'm breaking the rule today, as I'm bringing my coach and mentor, Mr. James Wedmore, onto the podcast. When I joined his program Business By Design, I fell in love with how he presents, speaks, and coaches business. His program helped me get my business to the multiple six-figure-business that it is today (with a team that serves and helps so many more women because of that). I can't wait for you to get introduced to him to hear his insights and thoughts. Find show notes at bicepsafterbabies.com/89 Follow me on Instagram!
