6 Days Out!

**H20Crazy** · 06-17-2007, 06:55 PM

Wassup guys. Doing a show this upcoming Saturday. Currently 6 days out. i've dropped 11 lbs to 182lbs. Trying to make middleweight(176lbs). I'm currently sodium loading (11 shakes with every meal, will cut sodium on wed or thursday) and my carbs are around 150g.

Probably gonna starts carb loading thursday (400g) friday (400g). Planning on cutting water 3pm friday afternoon. Take a diazide at 4. I'll be up most of the night to monitor my situation and maybe take another diazide around 1am. Looking forward to having a nice big fat piece of cheesecake and a burger friday late night.

Please tell me what you guys think.

P.S. I know my shorts look like MC Hammer shorts but alot of old ladies at my gym and i didnt' wanna deal with complaints so i just kept em on. I will take more pics once i do my tanning and in my posing trunks.

Thanks bro. Yeah i definitely don't wanna end up in lt heavy. I don't think i'll have a problem making weight. I'm at 182 now...If i can get to 181 or even 180 by thursday, it'll give me that cushion going into my show.

Any suggestions or recommendations about prepping these last few days?

Very good all over..i mean everything matches. The only thing that stuck out IMO was your calves. They could afford to come up some more but don't sweat it.

Honest to god, you are damn near perfect on both sides. Now go win!

Your arms and delts are sick.

Obliques are looking good, as well.

Good luck with the competition and stay focused.

3 days out now...weighed in at 181.2 lbs 6:30 am. I've reached my goal of 181 by thursday. Gave myself a little cushion to make weight class (176 1/4). Starting to carb up tomorrow (350-400g) but i have to monitor that make sure i dont gain much weight....

Cutting out water 4-5pm friday afternoon. Diazide at 5pm, and assess my water weight at midnight-1am.

What do you guys think about having a burger with some fries and a little piece of cheescake as my midnight meal friday night??

Sat morning 5-6am-Pancakes, whole eggs, cheese, couple of krispy creme donuts. Taking some m&ms, rice cakes, and some honey to the show.

When i'm carbing up, should i get 10-15g of protein per meal?

**PROTEINSHAKE** · 06-20-2007, 07:04 PM

apparently you plan on doing a $hitload method.... dont over eat.... you will spill over...& make sure your weight will allow it obviously..... make sure you have as little water in you as possible. bring salt to salt your fries...watch out on the donuts..I think that did me in last time.. small amounts of protein-yes....

I placed 6th in the open and 3rd in the novice. 2 guys that beat me in the novice had won previous show...i guess it is what it is... i was extremely pleased with my performance. It was definitely one of the best days of my life. Great first experience. Can't wait to do another one..

Here are a few pics..

I'm off to Miami, BABY!!
