TRAINING FLEXIBILITY + HANDLING CRITICISM IN BODYBUILDING | EP. 8 | DANILO SIPOVAC & NICK WALKER

Danilo Sipovac Season 1 Episode 8

In this episode, we’re talking about our approach to training routines and why flexibility matters. Nick shares how he adjusts based on energy levels instead of sticking to a rigid plan, and we both get into why enjoying training is non-negotiable if you actually want to keep doing it.

We dive into the mental side of bodybuilding too. Handling criticism online vs. in person, the impact words have on mindset and performance, and the realities behind guest posing expectations. We even get into moving from 212 to Open class and what that means for someone like Keon.

Food choices come up a lot—how they affect performance, digestion, and why understanding the basics of food science can really change how you approach prep or off-season.

And of course, there’s the usual off-topic stuff: weather conspiracies, airspace legalities, travel challenges—basically us just talking about everything around the sport and life.

We’re dropping two episodes a week now. Let us know what you want us to cover next.
