Thread: Pre-Contest Fun(k)

1) What about my caffeine supps? Do those have to go at any point or keep taking them, even on show day?
You can still use the caffeine all the way through as a diuretic...along with dandelion root and uva ursi....it is similar to what is in Taraxatone by Cytodyne. I was taking this stack 4 times per day starting wed before the show.


2) I carb up on wed. and sun. I will skip my carb up the wed before obviously but what about the Sun. before the show???
I would say it depends on how sensitive you are to carbs. I know that my body handles carbs pretty bad....they bloat me right up so I would skip the Sunday carbs. Either way you should be ok....if you bloat up just do some extra cardio to deplete the glycogen...and if you look/feel ok after the carbs then you didnt do any harm.


Jodie told me you were cutting water wed before the show.....are you still going with that method? I used that for my first two shows and it was hell. This time we cut water on Friday at 5 and it seemed to work just as well. Just a thought.

Good luck with everything!

Thanks for the advice doc....this journal is the old one though. LOL, my new one is "three more funkin' weeks"

Anyway..I dropped caffeine and already have my herbal diuretics which I will start on thurs.

I am not dropping wate until Friday actaully so I should be good there too. Thanks for the reply.
