I know there are some pretty serious people here that have some pretty serious methods for staying awake days at a time, dancing like maniacs, sun up to sun down during WMC. I'm not a fan of Red Bull and I don't do blow, so if you have any other suggestions I'd like to hear them. What works and doesn't make you crash hardcore? I'm a big Mate tea drinker, but I doubt I'll be able to find any bottled Mate in SoBe...especially at 2am in between clubs.
Suggestions?!

a must is the power nap before going out
lots of vitamin C and B complex
the music, pick great parties and the music is always an upper, atleast for me it is
um, and eat veggies and fish, no heavy foods or fried foods
and then theres................. well you know

caffeine will make you crash. some drugs will also make you crash, maybe not that night but WMC is a week long. pace your self.

Definitely agree w/ the music...good music keeps me going. I like my afterhours trippy and heady to keep me going...I stay away from the hard stuff, that drains me way too fast.

Nutrition (ie, fuel for your dancing machine): I don't usually eat whole meals much when partying for extended periods of time so I usually try to do lots of shakes w/ a mix of good carbs, protein, and caffeine. If you find a smoothie joint make sure you ask for a scoop of protein...don't get just pure carbs in your shakes (try to make it balanced like a normal meal). If they have almonds or nuts get them to throw some in there as those are great protein/fat additions.

same here!!


one big thing i found is go with different groups of friends...if you got soemone who wants to go fri to one dj and u know another who wants to go see a sat dj...they should keep your energy level high...

i usually drink a lot of redbull + alki and that does the trick for me

cat naps help -- some down time too helps and choosing the right party

i cant fuckign wait...what djs are you planning on seeing??

i'm going completely by myself...i only know 2 people from last year and i dunno if i'll actually SEE them the entire time i'm down there cuz they like different DJs than I do.
I'm flying in Wednesday, hopefully hitting the Perfecto roof party that night, then early morning Morillo @ the space terrace, Ferry/SVD/Guetta Thurs night, probably the Radio 1 pool party for a few hours, Ultra day 1 and 2, and Armada night...and if i'm still breathing possibly Axwell on Sunday. I'm staying in SoBe til thursday so I'll have recovery/relaxation time then
