what does your laast wk before a show look like

[freak1]

hey guys what does your laast wk before a show look like regarding nutrition??lots of oats and chicken and steak i presume while you carb load days before the show?r fats lowered to compensate for the higher carbs???i guess no shakes this wk and sodium kept to a low and water is high until you cut it out ?

Everyone does it different. I know sodium only changes right before the show. Also, water intakes spikes up and on the last week, I only drank spring water. Also, fats can play a role but not as major as carb loading. Also cutting shakes would depend on the person. However, I ate alot of cream of rice, chicken breast, and steak.

wat does carb loading do if u dont mind???

[Sgt. Hartman]

It replenishes your muscle glycogen stores, which these guys have depleted with their pre-contest diet, which will give them a very "full" type look as opposed to looking flat w/o carbs.
