Dr. John A. King is eight days out from a show and still sick, down five pounds with visible muscle loss from glycogen depletion. He's planning to drink a gallon to a gallon and a half of water, eat oatmeal and egg whites, and do 35 minutes of cardio to recover in time for a solid final week.
So I'm still, I'm still not feeling the best. I'll just do a little bit of cardio there in about 35 minutes. I'm trying to get some oatmeal into me and I'll try some egg whites. I've dropped 5 pounds and I'm flat. My muscles aren't rounded out anymore. I think it's probably glycogen depleted and water depleted. So I'll try and get in a gallon, a gallon and a half of water and try and get in some sort of food. I'll have oatmeal and egg whites as I said. And I may just stick to egg whites for the day. I don't know if I can stomach anything else. But if I can get the lifts back in and start to get my body back to being repaired with some sort of calorie intake, then I'm hoping that by the time I get back on my feet, probably tomorrow, then I've still got a good solid week before the show. Alrighty, just keeping you updated.
