Exactly a month from now i have 14 lbs to cut.
My maintenance is around 3400.
Ive been averaging 2500 to 2700 cals a day.
Heavy days, bench, squat, deadlift i eat high carb.
Cardio, rest, arms, shoulders days im doing low carb high protein
If i cant cut all the weight in time im gonna tryout a sauna the day b4 for early weigh in or
A hot epson salt soak. I need to be 198, 212 this morning. Any tips or experience with the sauna or salt bath is appreciated.
If i don't make weight ill bump to upper weight class and be at the bottom end. Oh well this is just for fun anyways .

Why do u wanna be in the 198 class? Is there a reason?

I know shit about cutting weight but some of these guys do water cuts and drop that much weight in a few days before meets.

Curious how much a drastic water cut effects strength. Wrestling style weight cuts have to be horrible for both BB and powerlifting...

How close are meet weighing to the actual event?

With my current strength level and body composition
198 is what id think is my best play for being competative or somewhat notable. I know im not gonna be breaking records or even place top 5 probably.

You shouldn't be cutting for this sil. 540 is a good pull and all but my friend who actually is 5th I believe ??? in 198 pulls 640 for sets of 5 twice a week and then does a heavy day later.

Stay 220 and just do your best pull. Get bloated as **** and OD on Dbol and ammonia and have a blast.

Thats very tempting. I have halo on the way and some tne on deck. Ill keep that in mind and see how the next week or 2 goes. Your friend is a monster btw. Those are sick numbers being that light.

Drol up. No one talks about 198s.

Im kind of seeing pillars point of view. Why make cut hard if im not breaking any records. If its just for fun i can weigh in at my 212. And just go for a pr.
