Post contest nutrition and training can be just as
challenging on you mentally as your pre contest phase. After your
competition, you celebrate by enjoying all the foods you've been

binging is probably ok as a celebration meal after the show but
when it becomes a habit the week or two weeks after competition -
it could turn to be a problem for you psychologically.
