What I had before my last strongman comp was steak and eggs; oh, and a side of potatoes. We got up at 6AM, my bf began cooking and we had plenty of time before the weigh-in of the comp. And I was able to sit back, enjoy the breakfast, have some coffee, answer some emails and relax.
Man, that's what I'll have from now on before any type of comp. Steak and eggs, babee. I was ready to conquer the world after that meal.
I remained hydrated through the day via Powerade and water. Didn't lose any energy at all.
