I wonder if infrared sauna work? I have access to one if I need it.
What weight are you lifting at?

I don’t know, never heard of that. I figure there’s plenty of saunas in snow Mexico. I’m competing at 100kg

Yeah but Covid, I should be able to keep close to 100, I am hoping to not have to cut but who knows yet.
Interesting to see how you do it

If you have a hot tub available. I prefer those to sauna. More comfortable to sit in, and you seem to lose water faster in it. That's what I did to lose about 7lbs in an hour before my last meet. Went in for three twenty minute sessions. Averaged a pound every 10 mins.

I know a guy used to do 20 lb water cuts in the hotel bathroom with a hot bath and spitting into a water bottle

Reminds me of the wrestling days before we knew how to cut water right. We would put in dips of grizzly on the way to wrestling tournaments to try and spit out the last .3lbs. lol

Weight Cut/ Weigh Ins
Yesterday am weight was 226. cut carbs throughout the day but nothing extraordinary. Normal carb intake is 250-300, did about 125-150 yesterday. Tapered water, only consuming 1/2 gal throughout the morning-afternoon hours. Only sips thereafter. Drank a bang in the morning, those things flush me out pretty good. Got home from work and weight was 225. Took a scalding hot shower and bath for about 20 min. Weight 223.5 after that. Couldn’t find a gym with a sauna open due to COVID. There was one that said they’re opening it soon but it need repairs because they hadn’t used it for a year. At that point I took one Lasix(furosemide) tab. Caused a pretty sizable bladder evacuation about 2 hours later. That got me to 221. I figured the lasix would probably cause additional urination but want to be safe so I did another hot bath. 219.5 at that point. Went to sleep and woke up 217.5 after pissing, I urinated once more before the weight in. Wasn’t much, basically a tinkle,lol. I was 216 on the scale. Probably some difference in the scale but didn’t want to be over. May have overdone it with the diuretic but was not willing to risk it without a sauna. I can drop 3-5 lbs in a sauna in 45 min but relying on the hot bath I wasn’t sure how much I could loose. Good learning experience, time to eat and drink

Long Post Alert!
Meet Day:
Bw:228
Squat:
474/518/529Pr wraps
Bench:
308/324/341 Meet Pr
Deadlift:
518/551/578 Pr
So the important stuff first.
Took a 100mg shot of test base this am. 10mg halo before squats, 10 mg halo before bench, 10mg halo before deads. 30mg total on the day.
I had cut the extra test out about 3 weeks ago. So just a trt dose into the meet.My weight was getting a bit high and I just felt crappy on the propionate. Not sure wtf it was. Felt a little better after dropping it. Should have put this earlier in my log but I thought I was gona throw it back in there. Gona try to run a long ester going into nationals and be a little smarter about it.
On to the Meet.
2 platforms, IMO a poorly run meet. No name calls announced for lifters up. The only way to determine if you were up was to watch the tiny names on the display. My coach was there. Many other guys from my gym so we definitely helped each other out with this.
S: The warm up area was hectic but they always are. Judges were calling squats for depth that were on the money and there was some hurt feelings there. I’m glad I was in the last flight. Got to see the calls before I went out so I knew what to do. Smoked the opener on squats . Coach overdid 2nd attempt squat by 5kg . I said “fuck it, just a 2nd attempt, I’m not here to be a bitch”. Smoked that, went for a small Pr that I missed in training, got it with room to spare.
Bench:
Warmups were shit due to equipment. Opener flew, 2nd flew. 3rd was a meet pr, probably had 5 more in me but played it safe.
Deads:
Pretty taxed at this point but a meet isn’t the place to get in my own head. Opener flew, 2nd was decent but everyone said I murdered it. 3rd was a pr on calibrated plates, probably had another 5 lbs but again playing it semi conservative. Easily qualified for nationals. Good day all in all. Couldn’t have done as well as I did without my coach and other friends there. As much as powerlifting is an individual sport having a “team” was all the fucking difference compared to doing my previous meets solo. Especially as a wrapped lifter.

I honestly wouldn’t have planned on doing Nationals if it weren’t so close to me. I’m probably not going to even win my division but it maybe a long time before it comes here again so I’m gona give it hell anyway.
