Pre-Contest Log: Shredding for the Stage

[psizzle_8]

That is gonna be rough. I'm glad I only do low/zero carb every other day. Good luck...I'm always here for you if you need me...lol

Right? I can't remember the last time I did low/zero, maybe 2 years ago? lol

I'm going for it though, no excuses...my commitment hasn't changed.

And btw you're who I thought of actually when my coach said no carbs lol - check your PMs!

Holy tired am I shit today...

Taking out the few carbs I was having is definitely starting to take effect today, I find myself watching the clock and PRAYING for my next meal lol...interested to see how workouts will go today and tomorrow. At least it's not legs or arms day! (my two longest and most intense days)

Lol @ your first line.....you must be tired!

Those low days suck. I know what its like to feel like you are starving to death waiting on that next meal. I'm doing it today actually. The benefit makes it all worth it though. Hang in there!

Lol yep, I was a few minutes late to class today, and wasn't even rushing. Just one of those days.

I feel so much better once I have a meal, so I'm not too worried about working out when thinking about that. Just tough to time my meals perfectly on Tuesday and Thursday because of my hectic class schedule

Well, it's the last day of no carbs. Woke up feeling flat of course which is to be expected, but also pretty lean as well. Still have one more workout today that will deplete me even more....so I am super interested to see how I'll look tomorrow when I introduce carbs back in

Carb ups are fun days. You get to actually enjoy eating and then you get to see yourself fill out at the same time. It also helps get your sanity back...lol.

Enjoy it!
