Conservative way to use dyazide without going perma-flat

[natrol]

Got a show on Saturday and after reading Matt Porter's long post about ruining contest prep I realize now why using anything but dyazide is probably a bad idea. Last show I ran aldactone for 3 days prior to the show, and while I did come in dry, I couldn't fill out for the life of me. Looked like a string bean with zero pump. This time I want to take a conservative approach to my diuretics and was thinking a half tab the night before and a half tab in the morning, still not sure if this is overkill though. Keep in mind that I'm in men's physiqe so our prejudging is definitely gonna be 2 or 3 hours after bodybuilding show's start so if someone could give me a time schedule that would be optimal I would appreciate it too. Prejudging for bbing starts at 9 am so I'm guessing Physique will be around 11-12.

Anybody experienced with dyazide feel free to chime in. The number 1 thing I want to avoid is not being able to get a pump backstage before I go on, although nailing my conditioning is obviously a very close second on the priority list.

Or maybe a half tab late afternoon friday and then a half tab late at night friday and then nothing saturday?

Honestly I should've done a diuretic trial with a trial carb up last week and now am regretting that I didn't :banghead:

Anyways, as said already opinions are welcome.

Make sure you keep drinking water all day Friday and try to get the same amount as days prior. Dont cut out water completely on saturday either or else no pump, as in 6oz between meals.

Not sure about the timing, I'm usually up on stage 45 mins after the show starts, being in bodybuilding. I eat two meals pre, and last 1.5 hour i snack on rice cakes and pb and jam.

That's exactly what I do.

After prejudging, I take 40mg lasix because I drink a lot (and eat a couple burgers and fries).

I would never experiment the day before a show.......always do a test run with your peak week prior to show time.

this is groundbreaking info so listen closely and don't share this secret with anyone. "get nasty fucking lean, I mean really fucking lean and you wont need dyazide as your not going to hold any water at all. I use dyazie simply because I am not lean enough and hold water.

Yes ideally I would have got to 2.9% bodyfat like Andreas Munzer but alas I did not accomplish this

Ya I plan on keeping water and sodium in. So if the morning show is around 11am or so you would take the quarter pill around 6 am or is that too close? The first half pill I will be popping around 11 pm the night before I'm thinking

X2. After your height check or weigh ins, take 1/2 tab and depending on your status when you wake up, take the other 1/2 tab if needed.

Wish I knew about the 45min. Fack. Didn't time meals correctly lol. Fuuuullll. Lol

3 days and couldn't fill out on aldactone? How did you run it. I started Monday low and ramped up to show. Zero issues filling out

Between 6-7 yes mate. That's what I would do.

Another post stage if you have to come back later in day/night

I took aldactone ramped up for the 10 days prior. I saw best results by day 7-8.

I ate a sh*t meal around 9pm friday night.. chugged water straight to prejudging and came in full and dry.

I use anadrol though, when using aldactone. I feel like anadrol is what keeps me full as oppose to others that flatten.
