QUOTE(garbanicus @ Aug 15 2013, 04:31 PM) Guys we all know and have always been told that 1 of the best ways to lose fat and stay healthy is to drink lots and lots of water right? Only for short term(3-4 hours a day, just enough to film the scene).I agree with this don't get me wrong, but just wondering.. Why this Nick Cheung was allowed very limited water during his training in order to get ripped? http://my.entertainment.yahoo.com/news/nic...-034300127.html For those who dunno, Nick Cheung is a famous HK star who was recently in the news for his body transformation. I remember reading somewhere he was only allowed like 1 sip of water per day!  QUOTE(alien9 @ Aug 16 2013, 05:02 AM) 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. 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.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. 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. QUOTE(a-y @ Aug 16 2013, 04:47 PM) 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. 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.+1, yes it is. Even use of diuretics is not completely safe to remove water out of body. |
