Well I've decided that I may do the show I was originally planning to do this saturday. I recently dropped that idea and I was going to just focus on the show July 23rd (Collegiate Nationals), but I figure what the hell, I'm basically at a low enough bodyfat to not make an ass out of myself, I just need to get into the novice lightweight division (165.25) by friday evenings weigh-in and not only will I not make an ass out of myself, I'll probably be pretty competitive in that division.
Getting to the 165.25 is the problem though. I started the week at about 176 and around 6% b.f.
I'm not doing a regular contest prep week for the show this saturday, meaning that I'm still doing cardio all week and I'm not doing any regular form of carbing depleting and carb loading.....this is all due to me putting the main focus on the July 23rd show and going into THAT show as tight as possible.
I am going to cut water though and see if by doing that I can make that 165.25 weight class. Anyone who competes knows how great I must feel right now (hence the title of the thread). I'm carb depleted and irritable as all hell......
I just keep picturing Hooters wings and pitchers of beer....Oh how the picture seems so far away right now......
Well, wish me luck and say a prayer, I'm gonna try to make SM proud!
