The theory being I super saturate my body and I start pissing the extra out. When I drop the extra water consumption the day before my body continue to piss more water out leaving my very dry. This is what I'll be doing for my upcoming meet. I've used it several times in the past with good results. I should also note I drop the sugars the week before the meet. And my meal following weigh ins is usually a light breakfast, then a heavy dinner (steak/cheese fries) The steak is slow to digest leaving me feeling full the next day with an even energy level.
Warning though I don't recommend you try this right before your first meet. Its better to experiment with this prior to the meet. Just a thought
