How do you folks out there manage weight for competition purposes, especially when you or your students have wild weight swings. Specifically how do you determine the best weight you or your student should fight in? How close to major competition do you set weight targets? I'm asking this because I currently have swings of as much as 10 pounds , up or down, on a weekly basis.
My weight is currently swinging between 182 and 192 pounds. Water intake/sweat is a big factor, but I don't seem to have any way to stabilize this. If I can't be sure whether I'll be a middle weight or a heavy weight tomorrow how will I know what my student will be on the day of competition?
