Hello,
Thanks for your query.
You should eat smaller and frequent meals through out the day. Because It is harder for bodybuilders' bodies to digest 2,000 calories in one sitting than it is to eat six or seven meals of a few hundred calories each. Your diet should contain all the nutrients and vitamins not just a protein rich food. egg whites, peanut butter and tofu. You must drink about 17 ounces of fluid about two hours before exercise, to promote adequate hydration and allow time for the body to excrete any excess water. During exercise, we recommend athletes start drinking early and at regular intervals in order to take in fluids at the rate you are losing them through sweating.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
