Drying out and carb loading?

TooPowerful4u · Nov 29, 2003

Im lookin for some in depth information on carb loading for competition and drying out using diuretics. I know they go hand in hand, and one can effect the other. Where can i find useful information on this where i can learn how to do this properly? Iv got 5 months to learn haha.

bro you will find that everyone reacts as different as hell to carb depleting and directics...some carbs work better then others for some ppl and pulling water is crazy..

I would do the water loading trick if anything...the other way only has 3 results..your flat..or bloated or your on..i have yet to see it work for the same person the same way 2 years in a row..it is that hard to really get it right..

We all looked better 12 hours later after the show...this is trail and error and should be tried a little bit before experimenting for the show that you have trained all year to do ...

last show i did,i did the directics and wound up in the fetal position on the floor half way through my manditories..i recovered in 2-3 minutes but i cramped up real bad and almost died after we finished the show.i had professional help as we had a top 3 IFBB olympian guest posing...i had the bag hooked up in a IV in my arm to help me and i swore that if i pulled through i would never compete and if i did never to do the directics again..that was 4 years ago...

Think twice about directics.....unless you are a IFBB pro..it is not worth the risk for a $10 trophy and a pat on the back...
