31.6 and Obese !! Get in.... Member 869, 1355 posts SQ 320, BP 200, DL 310830.0 kgs @ 97.5kgs Eq | Boring question time... Can anyone, off the top of their head, recall any good article's on water loading. Doing a bit of research and was hoping someone with a bit of actual experience on this s**t can point me in the right direction. Never done it before but looking at dropping down a weight catergory and this is something I want to get my head around, and probably do like a 'dry run' so to speak beforehand, just so's I can have confidence in it.....

Thanks very much, that's spot on. I knew someone would be able to drag some awesome s**t up from the past. I knew that 'someone' was unlikely to be me... | ||

Taaa I did something almost identical to the sugden article for GPC euros to lose 4-5kg - didn't like the fact whole week is spent in a psychologically uncomfortable state of carb depletion and drinking/peeing gallons of water. I might try the matt kroc method next competition which is simply sitting in hot baths/sauna on the night before to lose it in one quick blast before caning the fluids post weigh in. (this not a method I'd advise for a 2 hour comp) | ||

Was hoping to avoid any carb depletion the week leading up to a comp if possible. Done the hot bath thing a few times, always good for a couple of kilos but never tried to take the piss out of it in an attempt to lose any more than that. | ||

Done the hot bath thing a few times, always good for a couple of kilos but never tried to take the piss out of it in an attempt to lose any more than that. tbh I reckon stopping eating night before, clearing the bowels/bladder and just some minor sauna/bath stuff will kill 4kg before weigh in - the cut in that Kroc article on elite fts are insane he comes down from 115+ to compete in the 100s. | ||
