Don’t water cut. Go in at the weight you are at. Adding extra stress by cutting weight is not necessary for your first meet.

Carb up! But keep fats low. Today is not the day to aim for perfect macros. Bring a lot of low fiber carbs to keep you full. Bagels/bread, rice, pretzels & fruit are all great options!

Make your opener EASY PEASY. Something you have hit more than 1 time in the gym to get your numbers on the board!

HAVE FUN! Local meets are the bomb! Meet new people. Make friends. Laugh. Take pics. Have a good time!
