As an incentive to get to ripped status I'm gonna do a photo shoot at the end of this current cutting cycle.
Anyone done it and have suggestions for optimal looking body on the day? ie pumped muscle whilst looking ripped. Is it all about diet 24/48 hours before? water consumption, carbing up timing etc etc? Does a pump on the day from working out before hand help?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Tips before a photo shoot
The body doesn't struggle to lose weight...the mind does - keep measurements, keep your sanity.
I'm an Englishman living in Canada...oh how I miss a decent curry!
Former skinny fat member @ 158lbs - now 205lbs and 15%. It's been a long journey but a rewarding one.

You really don't need to do water manipulation IMO... Just cut back water the night before, eat something like pancakes for breakfast, have a tan.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to baldbeefcake again.
Thanks - Def going for a tan and thought lifting a few weights in between will be good. Just didnt know if cutting carbs before then overlaoding before the shoot would do anything (i'm not a science guy lol)The body doesn't struggle to lose weight...the mind does - keep measurements, keep your sanity.
