how to prepare body for a beach day
-Cut your carbohydrates to less than 100 grams a day -- that's about 15 to 20 percent of total daily calories. -Eat four or five small meals a day. -Drink lots of water: at least 1 ounce per pound of body weight. From 2 days before, through beach day: -Carbohydrate loading. Now you want to refill your glycogen stores, which will make your skin tighter. -Eliminate all junk food and increase your carbohydrate intake to 70 percent of daily calories -- that's about 1,900 calories (or 400 grams) of carbs for a 180-pound guy.
