Trevor G FullbrightModeratorThe water comment was really more for digestive/superficial purposes, doesn't really make or break anything but maybe you'll get a better idea of how you did on your CN if you are not holding any extra water.For starters, you should drink a lot throughout the week and also before your CN. Unless you are taking a super-dose of vitamins (like Animal Pack lol), you should always be peeing almost clear. The first bit's just common sense, but on the actual CN, try not to have too much water as it will definitely make it harder to digest everything and it might give you reflux/the look of a whale the next day. Just drink a bit if you are thirsty, but try to have the majority of your fluids in the earlier part of the day. Trust me, you'll look and feel better the next morning, probably thirsty though. I tried having massive amounts of water with my BL or CN and it only gave me bad reflux and I just looked like shit the next day with all sorts of digestive track issues. Again I'd look at your training and other things, the water bit is just what I have found works best for me, but I do carb-load pretty hardcore, pretty fast, so that's another thing to consider.
To further the water comment, during extended periods of ULC, many people can benefit greatly from adding sodium and potassium.

+1 adding a pinch of salt pre workout while ULC helps a lot with getting a pump and muscle contraction!

decoy5657MemberI fast all day
No. You are not fasting all day. By the time you are working out, you've consumed 1125 calories from the coffee. Granted it's pure fat, it's still energy that your body has to deal with.
