Phil -
Thanks for your comments. I appreciate it. I'm uploading new pics on my site right now as we speak. So you can view them now. My carb up process was NOT correct and not healthy. I thank God that my boyfriend was there with me also who is very medically knowledgeable also and knows whats healthy and wants not as I do.... So it wasnt like I was some stupid girl talking back to WYLDE. I dont agree with this carb up. maybe under normal circumstances he could have carbed me up properly... but with his mental state at the time and the lack of hours and having to have me ready for a 2 day show, it was NOT something that he could have accomplished, so I took it into my own hands adn am pleased with the outcome.
As for wylde himself. I've found out a few things since I was up there that I'm not pleased about. he for 1 told me that he "signed Jason Arntz the other day to work with him for his contest prep, diet/supps"... he also said he'd worked with Tonia Williams and Jennifer McVicar.
I met Jason at the show and had quite a long chat wtih him. What a GREAT guy... let me tell you, Jason is NOT working with Wylde, wylde is not his trainer, nor will he ever be. Jason had no clue that was being said and had never even met the guy until this past weekend. Not cool. As for Tonia Williams, mw, national level fbber..... she thinks he has no clue and "uses other peoples names to get himself known" and she has not worked with him and will not work with him again.
He told me that if I do nationals he'd be helping Tonia Williams along with me, but for me not to worry because even though we would probably be in the same weight class he wouldnt show any favoritism... well HE ISNT EVEN WORKING WITH HER... Now this is FACT... after a phone call was placed to Tonia personally this morning.
So all I can say is trust wylde as you may. He CAN help you with dieting up to the show... NO DOUBT. He is extremely good at that, I give him credit, he upped my carbs when I had them lower then they needed to be.... but the week before, no way would I ever go through that again. Carb depletion fine.... but carb up, noooo fucking way.
Sorry its just how it is.... I have to be honest so others see whats going on here. I wouldnt have believed it until I saw it this weekend. Sucks... Really made for a shitty weekend when you rely on someone to help you carb up and they cant do that for you.
