    Chasing the Card: The Cost of Turning Pro | TPS Episode 1

    Welcome to Episode 1 of The Pro Standard! In this inaugural episode, IFBB Pro Jeremy Soh gets raw and unfiltered about what it truly takes to earn a pro card. We dive deep into the brutal reality of elite contest prep—and it's so much more than just the lifting and cardio. Jeremy opens up about the immense mental fatigue, surviving on just 4 hours of sleep, and the harsh reality of putting his business, hobbies, and normal life on complete pause just to get through the day. If you've ever wondered what the elite actually sacrifice to achieve greatness, this episode is for you. In this episode, we cover: 🏋️‍♀️ The Raw Reality of Prep: The physical and mental toll of pushing your body to the absolute limit. 🏃Survival Mode: Navigating extreme fatigue and the daily dread of prep. ⚡️The Productivity Paradox: Why turning pro means sacrificing business growth and normal life. 🚫The 5-Year Hiatus: Upskilling as a coach and shifting focus to clients. 💪The Comeback: The Korean BBQ bet that sparked the return to the stage.
