    Hey, I'd llike to hear more about this as well. I always seem to look way better on Sunday and Monday. All the binging and gallons of water and beer make me harder and drier. For my next contest I'll start the postcontest binge a night before the show.

    I have a contest in less than 3 weeks and I will do my carb-depletion starting on the sun. before the contest. I will do this for 3 days and I will start carbing back up on wed. for the next 3 days. With eating every 2 hrs on thur. and fri.(sweet pot. and 5 oz steak). I also start my water depletion on tues. Mon 1.5 gal, tues. 1 gal, wed. .5gal, thur .25 gal, and fri. sip. hope this helps.

    I think looking better the Sunday and Monday after a show, is a reflection of all the intense posing during the show. The extra food has to help as well. Bodybuilding seperates the men from the boys. Enjoy wearing your results, you earned them!

    Sincerely Steve

    Just make sure you get enough, even if you get to many you are not going to put on large amount of body fat in 3 days of carb loading and your muscles will be completely filled and rock hard. Youll also be cutting water before the show so they wont lead to water retention either. Would you rather look full and hard with .05% more body fat or soft and round with .05% less body fat.
