Candy Pre-Contest

[Primo57]

I was planning on eating a couple of blueberries (for a lil' bit of water), some gum-drops, and a twinkie; what do any competitors think of this or is this too individual of a thing. I'm just wondering if the fat content in the twinkie should be avoided and just roll with the simple sugar in the candy?

If your doing this to pump up the muscle, than your better of going with 4 tbsp of fruit preserves.

i think it is a good idea to eat some kind of non fat candy like lifesavors 30 min before going on stage to give you a little energy boost.

Day of show this will make much more scense!!! You will be very tired and totally carb and water depleted. I only did a college show, but jolly ranchers seemed to be the most popular. I doubt a twinky would do you any harm though. I went out for pizza after the show, and looked better when I got home than I did on stage.

Jeez, I'd like to hear more stats on that barn door.

simple sugars only effect the body in a positive manner for about about 30-45 minutes after digestion, after that they cause a major insiln rush a begin to water you up. Takes about 15-20 min to digest simple carbs, I like the carbo force drinks on contest day, drink about half 20min prior to stage and some wine 1/4-1/2 glass, and you will have awsome results. Just remember when they wear off you will begin to hold water..

did you say stats or naked pics????im just kidding

the weight sounds light (175) but he looked a lot heavier.
it suprized me a lot.

175 with a low bf% is VERY respectible. In my contest last night, the heavy weights looked like shit; and it was the middle and light weights that came in looking hard and shredded
