lba/glycerol w diuretic use.....

[lucian]

if the glycerol in the lba keeps the cell hydrated, and a diuretic like...m...dyazide was used would one cancel the other out? i mean the body is trying to stay hydrated and dehydrate at the same time. doesnt seem like a good idea. should one drop the lba in the end as to not suffer some kind of "shock" to the body??? anyne have experience with this??

I would use the LBAs AFTER you have dropped water... sometime close to stage time as is the norm for glycerol use

correct, the timig is what need to be tinkered with when doing this.... it can produce dramatic results if you time it right!

This is correct. LBA's/glycerine the night before your show......After you lose the water! Will tighten you up dramatically. it will pull the water from under the skin!

too soon for glycerol. do it about 1.5-1 hr before stage time.... it will help get a sick pump and pull in a little extra water to the muscles and out of anywhere it might remain.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe glycerol can dehydrate tissues further if not taken with lots of water (it's an osmotic diuretic). Taking lots of glycerol with not much water when dehydrated from diuretics might be a bad idea. You could get dizzy, have blurry vision etc, or worse.

Or if your holding a smigeon of sub-q water...it could suck it into the muscle

True, just saying that if someone is already feeling very dehydrated taking undiluted glycerol might make him feel worse.

It's my understanding that IV's of osmotic diuretics (plasma expanders) are used with stuff like Lasix to pull more water, faster in some medical situations. Even Chad Nicholls said the plasma expanders needed to be topped off with diuretics to "work", so they potentiate each other.
