I recently helped a friend with his first contest prep. He was using sustanon (500mg weekly) and clen . Everything went well right up to the final days. He cut his salt on Wednesday and water was held to 3/4 gallon on Friday (he had been 2 gallons ed up to thursday). He took one Dyazide at 4pm, 1/2 tab at 9pm and another 1/2 tab at midnite. We were looking for about 5 lbs + water loss (he's a lightweight, I lost 10 lbs at Lt Hvy with 3 tabs). He woke up Saturday morning and hadn't lost one lb. He then took 2 more dyazide at 7am. Later at the weigh in, he took a 40mg lasix tab. After all of this, he still didn't pee? He drank nothing during the day but a few sips with meals and ended up gaining almost 2 lbs before the night show (he was with me all day, no liquids).

Although he looked good, he wasn't dry. He was NOT taking any AI or SERM because he had no obvious sides from the Sus. Could he have had high estrogen causing water retention?

Any suggestion/ideas would be appreciated.
