Im wondering if "before the final week" for the contest..should I continue to do my normal carb rotation of 3 days low and do "1 high carb" day as usually like the last 3 months ? or it is too close to do high carb days ?

Its what works for you but I would have to be cutting the carbs back w/o high days at that point.Then up them a little the night before

i guess it all depends on how ur body looks at this point. stick with whats been working and what u know- afterall-u know your body best. I would keep doing whatever uve been and start ur normal carb deplete on mon tue wed b4 show but nothing to drastic. then start to cut ur water a bit and carb up depending on how ur filling out that is... good luck. what show- weightclass- and level is it?

Everybody is different and it really does depend on your condition. If your cut to hell, then you could employ the low carb system for the first three days, the next three are carb up days . The day of the show many people use complex and fast carbs, but you have to experiment and see how your body reacts, thats why many of us do more than one show, so we can make finite changes along the way. IMO though I would have a least one day when you carb up, if your in condition you shouldnt " smooth over" and if you dont you run the risk of looking "flat". All the best, Jim
