@darcy__jack: Here is is involved in a carb up for show day in less then 24hrs before jumping on stage. I had to deplete very hard to make the weight cap this year of 91.6 kg, I ended up on stage around 94.5kg. Approx 10,000 calories between weigh in and stage time was consumed. When you deplete all the glycogen out of the muscle it becomes a very very dry sponge, then you throw the right amount of carbs, water, sodium and potassium at the body it soaks it right up giving you a very ‘full’ look. This got me the overall win for the NSW title the last weekend.
