yup, that's pretty much the question. everyone says that they have to "get down to race weight". how do you really figure out what that is? i have an idea, probably three lbs less than i am right now. i'm just over 5'9" and am currently 142 and am thinking that just under 140 would be good - but really, who knows. is it just where you feel the best? it can be a fine line between staying lean, and not eating enough to train. i sometimes find that a difficult line to negotiate, and i don't really have the extra cash to get an accurate BF test regularly. also, i am consistantly 2 lbs heavier during my period, which is frustrating as well when trying to fine tune this stuff.
