The problem with alcohol is it can make you look blurry if you're sensitive to it. I'd test it weeks before your show during a mock peak week first.

Mock peak weeks are the way to go. Don't try anything for the first time on show day.

Thanks everyone. I think I’m going to stay natural and stick to the water loading. My health is more important than a plastic trophy.

Good call. You'll probably end up looking better anyway because you won't be flat and miserable.

Post pics after the show! We’d love to see how the natural peak works out for you.
