It's due to their coaches' terrible techniques. What I can say is that by limiting the water intake, the body will not holds water thus the muscle will look more define. Is this technique good? A huge NO!. You don't need to limit water intake, cut the sodium or use any diuretic in order to get that same kind of looks. There are other safer and better way.

IMO, most actor and actress' coaches are fad coaches, teaching some stupid way of training and dieting just to get their clients to get their body.

Same is the case for Bodybulding contestants when they will be posing, they really take very very small amounts of water. As reduction in water increases the muscle definitions, but results in terrible terrible cramps, so yeah at times all those faces they make while posing could be because of severe cramps.


+1, yes it is. Even use of diuretics is not completely safe to remove water out of body.

Myth Skipping breakfast can be a healthy way to lose weight for some people.

Truth / False : Unsure.

hha... u wanna gain your weight? i have suggestions..;P u can try my weight gain supplemen.. it really works to some of my customers

'how's ur moms health condition? is it worse? can she eat supplemen? if can then i could recommend some =)

I got several questions guys.

Currently I am on a high calorie diet. More than 3000 kcal daily. The reason is that I am very thin.

My diet consists mainly of carbohydrates from rice, protein from meat and healthy fats (no added sugar peanut butter). I try my best to have as low as possible sugar intake which means my fruit intake is low too. I take multivitamin supplements and omega-3.

So the questions are:

1. Does healthy unsaturated fat cause harm when taken in large amount?

2. Does being thin means I have a healthy blood circulation?

3. Is my diet stated above unhealthy considering the amount or times I take them? I understand that in a 2000 calorie diet, my food intake are considered healthy or acceptable except for the rice.

1. everything cause harm when taken in large amount.
2. not necessarily
3. not enough information.

Not sure about that..
But i'm sure eating regularly is good for us..
Eating breakfast is a lot better than eating before sleep..

Serious about losing weight or gaining weight? ask me how! I can provide you a workout plan and other plannings.

To lose weight, it's not all just about working out or skipping meals, because without a proper diet, you might end up getting back the fats. It's important to practice this rule : 80% nutrition and 20% exercise.

Just drop me a message if you are interested in getting in shape as well as staying healthy.

Cheers people!!

skip breakfast to lose weight?
but if we skip breakfast we get more hungry before lunch therefore we increase our food intake during lunch because of so hungry!
I believe in never skip your breakfast to give more energy boost for our daily activities

80% nutrition = 6X meal daily in small portion each? (To increase metabolite rate)
20% exercise = take the stairs daily and go big shopping mall on weekend coz walk a lot? (To burn some fat)


I can do that

Fun reading this section..

Or even simpler.

Eat 10% lesser than your daily calorific needs.

Lift heavy weights at least two times a week to maintain muscle mass and support fat loss.

Only for short term(3-4 hours a day, just enough to film the scene).

It depends on goals. For someone that needs to lose a large amount of water quickly(e.g. Boxers, models before a photo shoot), this is the most effective way to lose weight without losing performance. For long term you should aim for something else.

For a boxer, being able to lose weight before a weigh-in to make weight is crucial, most of them bloat their weight overnight and still able to perform at their peak.

Well I do agree that most actor and actress' coaches are fad coaches. However, Nick Cheung knows his goal well, his portraying a former boxer in his film anyways, making weight cuts is an important part of being a boxer.

I disagree in that part, yes maybe if they hold the pose for too long, but if you're cutting water weight for something temporary then it should be okay.

To add on to the list of myths, this is one myth I REALLY DISLIKE.

MYTH: Girls who lift weights will look like a she-hulk.
TRUTH: Absolutely untrue! Females do not have enough testosterone to make them bulk up! It takes a lot of supplements and years of training to look like a female hulk. It's a long story but I have elaborated more here on why girls should lift weights! It's the best thing ever for a woman to do.

Girls who lift, YES!
