Hey girls, (and guys if you're reading our stuff), I'm 3 weeks out from my next show, and I'll be competing in the Fitness Model and Bikini Model categories, body-building lite, lol.
I have been eating according to schedule, the typical 6 meals a day that we all do (though I'm on 6 T of good fat and 5 1/4 c starch servings per day), and lift as heavy as I can (hack squat 270 for vmo and BB squat 90), and have only gained about 2 pounds since my first show, (sorry, sad but true, and I think I work out pretty hard for a 5'2", 112 lb woman). I'm always what my coach calls, "show ready", even with all the extra re-feeds that I do, and this being my case, the question is:
what are some intelligent ways to dial in for the show without losing my hard won muscle? I really only want to drier but keep the muscles as full as I can...drop sets? carb or fat changes? a short dial in????
Any advice especially if you're like me, would be so greatly appreciated.
Paz y Luz!
