Short1's Road to the USA's. The "Quest to get my bum lean" thread.

[the-short-one]

LOL


Nice......I remember back when Steve Blechman was preching that the Team U would ALWAYS be tested etc.


lol


Weight today??

130

 

[the-short-one]

...it probably always will be tested...in a very random way. lol My opinion is that they should just drop the "natural' label all together.

 

[The Shadow]

130

5 pounds in two weeks.



EASY.



Are they having staggered weigh ins for the show??

ie - Thursday and Friday??


Or just one set time?

Thursday night and Friday morning. Hell, I can loose 5 pounds in water, easy.

However, we need a game plan for weigh ins. Thursday night for sure, just in case I don't make weight (doubtful) so I can weigh in again Friday morning.

Do we plan the peak weak differently or start early since I weigh in on thurs?

yep.

The advantage for being below 125 on the first weigh in is that you have a bit of extra time to carb back up.


The advantage for a later weigh in is that, its only a day before the show, and the diuretics are in full strength mode on Friday ad you just carry that over to Sat.


You will be 125 on Monday of the show.

Weigh in as early as possible on Thursday.

^^ Game plan.



If that holds we will start the carb up with more fast acting carbs(than last time) on the morning of the weigh in - assuming you are 122ish or so by then

 

[the-short-one]

ok...so if not 122ish, then we wait until after weigh in.

 

[The Shadow]

ok...so if not 122ish, then we wait until after weigh in.

thats a very tenative yes.

Definites:

Thursday night - unless something weird happens which I do not expect.


...that is outside of the weight.....the carb manipulation can be shortened or drawn out depending on weight on Monday.

I"ve got a photo shoot all morning on that day - My part of it is only about an hour, but I have to be there for the whole thing because it's my project. Will this effect anything, or do we need to plan anything differently because of it?

Even though cardio was up and cals were down.

Making the switch to more machines/cables make a difference....as well as going a bit lighter(TUT still applicable).

I think I'll take 4th. My predictions:

#1 - Jenifer Sedia - she dropped down from the lhw
#2 #3 - Dianna Tinnelle or Kelly Dobbins - either or

 

[superqt4u2nv]

Our girl placed 4th pretty freaking awesome as USA's is a top national show and this is only Shorty's 2nd show!!!!

 

[velvett]
