    You don't change anything, unless you are still losing weight, in which case you would throw some carbs back in slowly to help you maintain. Cardio would probably be lowered to maintenance levels as well, unless like I siad, you are not losing weight, yet have reached the condition you would like. If I was already completely ready to step on stage, I would just increase water drastically leading up to the show, completely cut it the day before, and then do a smal shitload the night before and the morning of the show with some extra carbs...nothing drastic. If you are happy with where you are at, why go and change things which could risk your appearance to change?? Many guys try to make it way more difficult than it is. Once you start changing a million things, it turns into one big crapshoot.

    It'd depend on what type of prep you used: e.g. low carb w/ HIIT cardio; Low carb w/ no cardio; Mod-carb w/ HIT training no cardio... etc.

    As such it isn't a 'cut and dry' question.

    Honestly the last thing i'd adjust at this point would be diet.


    Any changes would occur with regard to training and cardio..specifically cardio.

    If i'm doing HIIT cardio.. i'll switch to MIT cardio.. or drop cardio completely and just pose in its place.
