Yey another diet thread to remind you how draining and stressful a bbing show prep is.
Yet another collection of random ramblings by myself over 12 weeks which Im sure you'll be sick of by the end of it.
So as most of you know this years U90kg British class will be a hotly contested affair, in the running so far
James (Flex) Lewis (1st 2006)
James (Mutant Freak) Llewelyn (1st U80 2005)
Mark Price (2nd 2005)
Barney Du Plessis (2nd 2006)
Simon Fan (1st 2003?)
Martin Burford - who was competing when I first started training 10 years ago and trained at my gym in Worcester, one of my inspirations for bbing and why I got into it in the first place.
Some of these guys still have to qualify but Im sure they will with no problem
So 6 potential class winners right there and then me as well. The prospect is a daunting one to say the least.
I have already been dieting for 2 weeks, one of those weeks was by accident cos I got my dates mixed up :(
This year sees a departure from my previous dieting methods. Previously I have guesstimated my total calorie intake and not kept a food diary, preferring to go by the mirror as to how I look. However while this has produced results I have not achieved my best I feel.
Therefore this year has seen me annotate my food diary every day and I will be posting up my diary on here in the form of a spreadsheet so that you can see it. I have got all the nutrient info from
www.nutritiondata.com or the back of the packets of the food.
Also training for this diet is different from previous. Before I have tried to cram in all bodyparts into the week but I have seen good results from a 8 day training plan in the off season so I will simply follow this up to the show. This allows all my bodyparts to rest for longer between sessions but I still train monday, tuesday, thursday, friday, sat. With abs on wednesday.
So thats it. More details later on.
