WInny and BP meds pre-contest

[adsinaction]

Question for all competitors..NPC, IFBB whomever you are...coming into the last few days before a National Qualifier. Assuming conditioning is rt where it needs to be..what, if any would the effects of Winny( assuming have been on 6-8 weeks at 50mg ED ) coupled with BP meds( Hydrochlorothiazide, water pill ) in regards to Carb-up/Water depletion. I was hoping to find anyone who has been on something similar and give an example of how they carbed up and water depleted( if at all) going into last 3 days before a show. Been carb depleting for 3 days at approx 135g which is down from typical 250-300g. Also..water intake has been roughly 1 3/4 gallons per day for last 6 days. Thanks gents!

Lots of people then...?

Have you placed this post in the competitor forum @Adsinaction? Might be better if you targeted the post to other more specific discussion areas. Good luck with the compo and I hope you get a few replies soon.

Carb depletion: This really depends on your body! no carbs for 3 weeks prior! All depends how your filling out!

Mon: Zero carbs
Tue: Zero carbs
Wed: start your white potatos 8oz w/ meals no carbs after 3pm
Thu: start your sweet potatos 8oz w/ meals no carbs after 3pm
Fri: start your red potatos 8oz w/ meals no carbs after 3pm
Sat: 2 8oz+ patties Hamburger with ketchup and bread upon wake up
every meal after that should be ground beef and 1 cup red potato
Before you go on for prejudging take a mouthfull of a full sugar soda. For the night show get fast food hamburger with ketchup and bread w/ fries and a 12oz diet coke



Water depletion: (knowing you are going to use a pharm grade diuretic) you might have to adjust water Friday if you feel you are not making weight.

Mon: 3 gallons
Tue: 2 Gallons
Wed: 1 Gallon
Thu: 1/2 Gallon (full tab am) (1/2 tab pm)
Fri: 1/3 gallon then cut water out. (water only with supps ie small mouth fulls) suck on ice depending on condition (1/2 tab am) (add a 1/2 tab or fill with carbs its what ever you want to look like)
Sat: Show day zero water


I think I got most of everything, if you have questions just ask.

Also use an enema the morning of the show to flush your colon it will flatten your stomach so you don't look bloated form the carbs

sounds more or less what I had in mind. I was curious as too how the Winny might( if at all ) counteract with the hydrochlorothiazide and water/salt depletion, Thats what was trick in regards to this contest. Typically I would salt deplete and water deplete with no meds at all..with the intro of the BP med..last thing I want is to by in a dehydrated danger zone.
