This may be due to a few reasons, good reasons of course :
1) You burn approx. 550 calories a day (depending on what exercises), you look different but you still weigh the same, because the much of the fat in your body has been converted into muscles (the same mass of muscle is only 1/3 to fat in terms of size).
2) Your daily calorie intake should be taken into account, if your intake of calorie is slightly more than what you burn daily, your weight will remain almost the same.

Somehow the bolded part of your statement is wrong. Fat ain't turning into muscles and vice versa. What happened is that the fat shredded off but in the same time, them muscles are growing. So, the weighing scales won't budge but if you take a better measurement, you can see that muscle mass percentage is up and body fat percentage is down.

Hi eikhwan. It depends on which muscle that you are trying to develop. There are specific routines for each one like biceps or abs. Jogging is the ultimate exercise for burning calories.

No, recent research suggests that fasting has a lot of negative health consequences. Better to keep eating; we evolved eating regular meals throughout the day, and if you fast the body slows the metabolism down and starts burning muscle tissue in preference over fat. So you become fatter and less muscular.

Kindly show the recent researches that fasting is bad. Truthfully, when human are still in the ice age, they don't eat 6 times a day with small meals etc. They need to go hunting to find for food and obviously they don't have whey protein to eat every 3 hours a day.

Why don't you go and have a read on Intermittent Fasting (IF).

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?
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!

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.
