Forgive me if I'm wrong, but by the time 2 days rolls around, if you haven't burned the carb calories you took in, your body has stored it as fat, no? Fat cells I believe are the only long-term energy atorage system your body has.

In wrestling we did complex carb loading, but it was only the night before, and it did help, along with smple carb loading (sugar candy, sports drinks, etc.) just before the event after weigh-in.

Snickers and Gatoraide is my preferred pick-me-up when I need a break.
