    My name is Ben Mongey

    19 Y/O and a new joiner to the TBJP site and learned alot of stuff so far and gotten great advice.

    I am currently at a diet phase (Week 7/9) and back to a surplus for the next good chunk of months before comp prep starts.

    Hello mate;

    Stress and fatigue : make sure you sleep correctly on time frame and force yourself to sleep once on another time zone

    Food : pack your food in freezer bags, already cooked and measured; you gonna have a longer day so I would add up as much meals as your day will last in order to make sure you eat every theee hours

    No mandatory carbs, but one meal every three hours

    I have traveled like this in peak week, and if you stick to your meal plan, sleep and water intake; you will be good.

    To have enough water intake during flight I bought 6L in evian bottles of 1L at the duty free before entering the flight

    And just discovered the customs don’t say NOTHING AT ALL; bringing one small ice pack with you if it fits the 1L freezing bag pockets qo you can keep your meals fresh.

    Appreciate this !

    Didn’t know about the customs though, thought they’d be more strict due to longer flights etc

    All Noted !
    Thanks
