Mike Sommerfeld kicks off the vlog buzzing with excitement—it’s check-in day, and after dropping weight, his coach gives the green light for a long-awaited cheat meal. For the first time since prep began months ago, Mike is heading out for sushi, his go-to refeed choice to avoid the bloating and water retention that comes with heavier foods like pizza or burgers.
The morning starts with cardio and inviting friends over, a tradition for refeed days where they spend hours eating and enjoying the moment. Between bites, Mike reflects on the simple joys of perfectly cooked sunny-side-up eggs during prep, and the small food fantasies that keep a bodybuilder going.
Training for the day is a pull session with shoulders and biceps, plus posing. Mike’s weight has been hitting new lows, prompting the refeed to avoid looking flat and to keep performance high. He also showcases his custom-built coaching app—tracking weight, digestion, sleep, and stress for each athlete, with editable meal plans, workouts, videos, supplement links, and direct chat access.
The day’s mood lifts further with the arrival of old friends, including Henrik, a long-time buddy from Mike’s early hustle days. They reminisce about their grind at FIBO 2018 and how far they’ve come—from sleeping on floors to enjoying sushi in Spain.
Dinner turns into a lively group event with eight friends sharing endless sushi orders via QR codes. Mike keeps track of his carb allowance but still savors every bite, favoring clean combos like tuna, avocado, and rice. The night wraps up with sweets, ice cream, and laughter, capping off a rare indulgence before getting back to strict Olympia prep.
