    Day Before Weigh-ins

    What do you guys usually do the day before weigh-ins in terms of training and food/fluid intake?

    This is my 3rd time cutting weight for a same day competition. The first time I didn't have much to cut and felt fine the day of. The second time was short notice and I had to cut more weight more quickly, which left me feeling pretty weak the day of.

    I started this week about 6 lbs overweight, and right now I'm only about 2 lbs over. The past few days I've been drinking lots of water and limiting carbs/sodium to flush out excess water while eating mainly chicken breast, raw or boiled vegetables, fruit, and protein shakes/bars. I'm not too worried about making weight, but I'm not sure what I should eat/drink today or if I should train at all. I might just do some light shadow boxing and hit the sauna after to get rid of these last 2 lbs. Should I eat/drink how I have been and then hit the sauna, or should I try to reduce food/fluid intake as much as possible all day? Thanks in advance.
