Sweet, hitting my taper-week on the mass program this week, so I should be able to jump back into the strength cycle when it comes back around :D

Greg,
Since you're up on the latest in nutrition, is there any special combo of things to eat or stay away from before Saturday's PR attempts?

Assming bodyweight isn't an issue, same thing you'd eat every other day, which should be generally Paleo-ish with maybe a slight increase in carbs to make up any glycogen deplenished during the metCons, which will be minimal. What I've been experimenting with is a caffeine taper... Basically no caffeine 1-2 weeks out, then have some day of the meet/lift day with the idea that it gives the system a chance to recover from any accumulated systemic fatigue a bit and improves caffeine sensitivity.

Tried to keep things crisp. At this weight they were both power versions of the lifts which I caught as high as possible and rode down. Things felt good. Can't wait for PR attempts on Saturday.
