Training
Fat Burning
Jessie claims that anything explosive – stairs, HIIT, outdoor sprints, etc. – is the ideal sort of cardio for her body type because of her naturally tight and slim physique and long limbs.
Long aerobic exercises are avoided by her since she thinks they burn muscle as well as fat.
Optimal Exercises
Any activity that uses big weights is Jessie’s favorite. These include pull-ups, bench presses, deadlifts, hack squats, and cable crossovers.
Jessie packs up the weight and opts for fewer reps when performing cable crossovers. Some people might find this counterintuitive, yet Australia has had great success with it.

Nutrition
Even during the offseason, Jessie consumes healthy food to meet her macronutrient needs. She consumes lean meats like chicken, fish, and beef for her protein needs.
Jessie McPhee consumes a lot of fruits, veggies, brown rice, and whole-grain pasta as her carbohydrates. She consumes olive oil and nuts as sources of fat.
Salmon sashimi and oats with cherries and vanilla are some of her favorites.
Managing Cravings
Jessie consumes a lot of fruit during her off-season to quell cravings for sweets. She claims that by consistently consuming a lot of nutritious foods, particularly fruits, she doesn’t feel the need to overeat.
“One of my most favorite things about bodybuilding is that every physique is entirely unique. No matter what you do, you could not fully replicate another person – you are entirely individual and different.
For me, this is a big part of what makes this art so appealing, along with all the challenges that comes with trying to create something cool – every person has different genetics, strengths and weaknesses, and people will always look different at the end of the day.” – Jessie McPhee
