Anybody waiting for the customery 'fruit is full of sugar' post?

It's coming isn't it.....

Ono...please help me get fat in a hurry. thank you advance. Sitting at 159lbs and want as close to 165 as poss. by Sat.

Sorry mate i missed your post. Did you make it?

Next time, rather than getting fat (lol) you could do with super-saturating your muscles with glycogen. There's a section on it in the sports nutrition bible thread.

Also if you get a day to yourself you could try a different method.

Every hour, spend 3 minutes doing really intense explosive movements. Immediately after the 3 mins, consume 1g/kg of bodyweight of carbs.

Basically it should make your body continually re-open the window of opportunity to re-stock on glycogen.....similar to how it is after a weight's session. Except after the 3 minutes your muscle glycogen levels are likely to still be pretty full rather than half empty (which is the case after weights). So the result should be super - saturation.....which will add weight to you aswell as giving a load of energy for you're fight.

Ha yea..I did make it, but thanks...and I'll give that a read in that thread. I didn't get to 165. I was at 162...ended up weighing at 160 come fight time, but overall things worked out.

Now I'm tired of losing weight for a fight, and then trying to gain it for another...and working out and all of it, so taking a bit of a break...but will likely be back to it before I know it. No fights planned till after Christmas now after 4 in a quick period...but never know, something may crop up.
