ABOUT THIS ...
During our time working together I've not only helped Patricio in optimizing his off-season, but I've had the pleasure of getting to know him as an individual. I would say that his experience level was what allowed him to understand 1. what we were trying to accomplish together 2. the concepts I educated him on... because of this he was able to jump ahead of the learning curve in the first couple weeks. After Patricio acclimated to the protocols and programming it was all a matter of consistency and dedication, which he didn't have a problem with. Very happy with the amount of progress he's been able to make. Patricio contacted me 6 months in advance, before starting his contest prep. In doing so we were able to lay the foundation for his 2019 competitive season. We spent the first 4 weeks of his contest prep at maintenance calories and from there we started to diet him down. The biggest thing for Pat was managing his school and work with contest prep, but he managed to get it done! The 28 weeks thereafter we're spent in a deficit and we had a diet break at the 16 week out mark. From there we had to turn up the gas to keep rate of loss consistent in the desired range. We wanted to get him ready before time and managed to do just that. He accomplished his full potential and I can't wait to continue to watch his growth!
