Hey meg I’m so exited to have you on here I work a full time job as well in retail and juggle body building like yourself nice to have someone on here so relatable. Lovely choice of post work out there ???? out of interest why do you run a zero carb day on rest days in off season ? Everyone has different opinions so interesting to hear yours , your smashing it by the way x
Thank you, retail can be so full on I did a stint last year before moving to corporate & didn’t finish until 7 some evenings so be good to show how I balanced it all.
I was struggling with my appetite so went with fats over carbs on rest days to keep cals high but easier to stomach, but like you say might not suit everyone xxMeg Sylvester IFBBPRO

Hi guys I’m Megan, currently in my offseason transitioning from bikini into figure.
I have a full time job in Corporate Finance prior to this I was a PE Teacher at Secondary/Sixth Form level, so I will share with you how I juggle life to do well in both my profession and bodybuilding.
Prior to bodybuilding I was a GB diver competing at the Senior & Youth Europeans, Worlds and Olympics. I was the first GB female in 52 years to win the European Championships. Also, I was a dancer specialising in Ballet where I became English National Champion & got the chance to dance on the West End. I’ve only competed in 9 bodybuilding shows so even as a newbie in bodybuilding I still have a wealth of knowledge & the mindset of an athlete having competed at a high level from the age of 9.
We have started regimented offseason right after my last show in Spain where I won my pro card this and competed in my first pro show where I placed 9th out of 24 beautiful girls.

Pull/hams/glutes
