So we have heard it from EVERYONE. Drink alot of water and then deplete on your "peak week". Deplete your sodium and take a diuretic to look your best. Boy, were they wrong.
Here is an awesome informational video from Layne Norton, a Natural Pro Bodybuilder who knows a thing or two about science.
(The entire video is located on BodyBuilding.com, and I placed the link below. The video that is being shown on YouTube is a "preview" of his entire series of articles on Peak Week on Bodybuilding.com)
He has written the most informative and awesome article I have read on bodybuilding "stage prep" to date and I think it will be beneficial to everyone who wants to look their best on stage. He has the science to back up his research, and heck, he looks great! Check out his other articles on Nutrition for the day of the show...again, great information! All of his articles can be found on www.bodybuilding.com, and on his personal website, www.biolayne.com. Enjoy!!!
