Resting before a comp - How much time do you allow?

For this years Brits, I had 2.5 weeks AW rest and 6 days total rest. For previous comps, I've allowed 1.5 weeks AW rest and 6-8 days total rest.

Generally speaking as the comp approachs, I'm trying to taper down the frequency and intensity of my training, but include some big lifts, close to 1RM.

We are all different - what works for you?
