A fast, organized summary of what top creators have publicly said about their training, recovery and competition prep — so you can understand the landscape without scrubbing hours of video.

Why this guide

• Signal, not noise. We catalog public statements into clean profiles and timelines — no gossip, no speculation.
• Pattern‑first. See how a base is built and how add‑ons show up across a season. Spot the difference between prep‑week levers and off‑season building blocks.
• Skimmable. Each profile opens with a What Jumps Out snapshot, then rolls into charts, notes, and references.
• Health context matters. We surface the themes creators mention around recovery markers and risk management.

What’s inside (exactly)

• Influencer profiles distilled from on‑record interviews, posts, and long‑form content.
• Playbook Matrix: comparative look at base vs. add‑ons, dry vs. full looks, support crews, and timelines.
• Timeline call‑outs: when certain tools tend to appear (and when they disappear) across a season.
• Recovery & monitoring: what experienced voices emphasize for sleep, bloodwork cadence, and training volume.
• Next steps: credible places to continue learning (long‑form resources, forum threads, academic reads).
