Flex Lewis

I went to a seminar with FLex Lewis yesterday and I have to say he is the most down to eath guy I have ever met, he was very open about all aspects of his training diet and general prep, much different to many of the pros I have met previously.

Sounds like a good seminer Bro. Now are you going to give us a little insight into his contest prep. Thanks.

It was nothing fancy just low carb high fat diet with high carb days, minimal cardio and lots of hard training. The one interesting point he made was that he dieted using fish until 2 weeks out and said it gave him much thinner skin than turkey does, whether it is because of the preservatives etc in the turkey.
He has a DVD coming out which goes into a lot of stuff he talked about

He has a great physique and a great future in this sport.

What type of fish was he using. Thanks.

What protein source did he change to at two weeks out.

I couldn't understand what type of fish he said he has a very strong welsh accent it was something he was using in the US he had to change to turkey at 2 weeks out because he came back to the UK and the fish was not available, he said the turkey definitely thickened his skin and held a little sub-q water, it was interesting to hear how such a small change can affect your physique so much.
He tlaked about re-introducing sodium the morning of the show as opposed to a full on shitload and said it was a much better way of doing things.
