I noticed that it seemed the majority of the people (competitors) at the last show I went to were snacking on peanutbutter and rice cakes , even guys who i know don't do a "crap" load type percontest diet

Is their some sort of loading effect that comes from this?

AAHHH , seems like its pretty common , is that more predictable than the typical carb load?

I've been trying to find all the differant ways that guys do precontest loading and see what effects it has on their body composition and at what times.

What Alex has me doing is just coasting into the show may add a little more carbs the morning of but i guess it goes back to the saying "either your ready or your not"

I just find it realy intersting what differant styles guys use and how it works

A lot (maybe most) guys will already have carb loaded (and perhaps fat loaded) in the days leading up to the show, and the rice cakes and pb is to just maintain fullness the day of the show, more or less.

Contest day I like to keep the carbs dry in the morning with some sugars so I prefer jelly over the PB though.

I would go with Shelby's response but add that just because a lot of people do it, doesn't mean it is worth a damn.

Mini pancakes! That's my choice. Add some PB in the middle and fold up like a soft taco and eat.

So true, It amazes me when you ask someone why they are doing something and they respond "That's what everybody does" or better yet "I saw it online" or "That's what so and so does in his video".

I usually cut out all sodium around 3 days out. Doesnt peanut butter contain heaps of sodium? I usually stick to eating clean, potato and chicken breast.

If I was going to add fats ( I usually dont ) I would prob use olive oil or something similar.

Bboys right .. dry carbs and fat also nice and convinient and easy.. seems like crunchy foods satisfy you a little more too.. Thats why i like pickles during hard dieting down the stretch when bodyfat is low..
