Precontest Post Wo?
« on: April 13, 2007, 05:48:18 AM »
I have a buddy at the gym who entered a physcial transformation contest in the area for $100,000.  He's asked me a few questions and stumped me here.  Is there a good RTD or post shake you would reccomend for someone who is getting ready for a show, cutting, i.e. no bloat, no water retention and someting to hold him over for a few hours (apparently, cant get a meal in for 2 hours after he trains"........should he go with one of the low sodium RTD that have 15-20g of carbs and 50g of protein?  He's about 185 and 5'10-11.....

In the last couple weeks I would throw out the shakes/RTD's & use solid food post-workout.

How far out is he? For myslef I cut out all protein shakes at about the 1 month mark and go straight foods, I would keep fats low and supplement with Flaxseed oil....

it would depend on how many weeks out and how he looks... i use the isolate/ hydrolyzed whey pwo up till the week of the show... the only change i make is to lower the amount of the pwo detrose/malto.

also he shouldnt be concerned about low sodium... lowering sodium is not a good idea until the last couple of days.

Let's say (I am not sure when the contest dates are) it's someone getting ready to go to the beach and wants to be cut n dry..........Stick with Oats and a pure Iso blend?
