What you're about to read is what everything I did to prepare for the April 7th SNBF bodybuilding and fitness competition. I decided to try something new but I really wasn't sure how it would have worked considering my 17 day diet. At any rate, you are more than welcome to scrutinize it and use it for your own purposes.

As you can see, I tried a few new things. I felt it worked fairly well for me. Why add lemon juice to the water? Well, lemon juice is a natural diuretic. So in theory, it should help your body excrete excess water out of your system. I'm young and I'm still trying to learn about my body. That's the real secret behind bodybuilding. Too many competitors have other people show them what to do and things of that nature. I believe you know what's best for you because you know your body best. So experiment because with every show, you should learn something new about yourself. Train hard and stay focused!
