I just stick with plain cheese, just to be safe, I don't want to chance having an allergic reaction to anything and possibly hold any water.

I wouldn't care even if you did. You are a respected businessman and sell quality products - good for you. I just get sick of high school kids regurgitating the liberal bs from their teachers that...

Half of a personal pan pizza.

Excellent point Par. This whole mentallity that it is evil to make a profit drives me crazy. Its called free enterprise. PA is not pointing a gun at your head and making you buy his products. You...

Another good article Derek. I'm currently using V-12 and I am very pleased with it. Great pumps and it tastes good.

Also using Tight. Again another good product from SAN. I used it during my last...

Why Hydrostatic Weighing?

As body composition, rather than simple scale weight, has become "The Standard" in this new millennium, Hydrostatic (Underwater Weighing) has become universally regarded...

I agree with crazymike. During my last comp prep I had a hydrostatic bf test on the Thursday before the show and it was at 4.2%. The day of I may have been in the high 3s. I was in the low 4s for...

I've never been as ripped as tweeter, but for my last contest prep all I did is the stat bike. BUT most important its definately the diet - "abs are made in the kitchen"

I don't usually gain any weight when I carb load, BUT I only carb load less than 12hrs.

When I do my re-feeds, which would be similar to a normal contest prep carb load, I don't gain weight...

Have you tried incorporating "re-feed" days into your diet? When my diet and fatloss stalled during my last contest prep, these helped dramatically.

There's some info on bb.com,...

I feel sorry for your competition, they're probably all crying in their chicken and rice :)

Your muscle density and composition is amazing, especially for your age. You better bring your birth...

"If you can get the same amount of **** that blows out of your mouth to blow out of your ass I would say you will drop 20-30lbs and be ripped to shreds."

That is the funniest **** I have ever...

I've been shaving my upper body for a couple of years and since I started competing I now shave pretty much everywhere. I was/am pretty hairy (Italian) and if I let the hair grow back it is no more...

As soon as the contest was over I ate a medium pizza and had a couple of beers. Then for breakfast the next morning I had chocolate chip pancakes. MMMMMMMMMMM good!

Good luck with your weight...

Thank you for all your help. The carb and sodium loading went well, next time I just need to start my carb loading a few hours earlier, as I was fuller after pre-judging.

I feel good....
