Let’s say someone needed to drop like 30lbs of fat, sloppy water quickly, for example.

It really is amazing how many people think their fat is just water. And anyone who claims ‘moon face’ while not on drugs is delusional.

Over hydration with no salt-> prune juice-> hot baths-> wear 5 track suits-> run and jump rope → make weight before the meet → try not to die → wrestle some dude who didn’t have to cut to make weight.
Easy peasy. Also, don’t die.

You forgot chew gum and spit in a cup all day. The ULTIMATE secret.

An hour in a crowded suana wearing a Storm Trooper helmet. This method has produced the most incredible results I’ve ever seen. People normally screw it up by skipping stuff. You need the crowd for even heat dispersion or there will be areas that will still look fat, like the lower abdominal region. Without the helmet, retained water ends up being redistributed to your face because water rises as it loses density due to the heat, leading to an even MORE bloated face.
The results, from what I’ve seen and what I’m hearing, have been nothing short of incredible.

I feel like we could start an intermittent waterfasting craze to aid all those folks afflicted with a hydration surplus.

I’m watching the playoffs, and every time the camera lands on Tuukka Rask, I’m sort of sickened by the way his sweat drips off the front of his helmet, like, in a slobber-looking way. I’m not anti-sweat on people working hard and I sweat myself, but there’s something about the almost constant stream coming from what looks mouth-nose-ish. At any rate, I will offer that a good way to offload excess water might be to become a topnotch NHL goalie.
I’m guessing that some of us are pretty much exactly like Rask, but more capable.

Yes! And naturals don’t hold water! I got a shredded AND dry to the bone while guzzling water before I carbed up!
This is a picture during the morning of the day before my show, VERY dry, and before carbing up. No dehydration, no fluid tricks!

I’ve got a couple of ‘before and after’ pictures of me during a water cut. The difference between the 2 pictures is about 15 lbs, solely water weight, and there is very little visual difference. What makes people have that ‘dry’, ‘shredded’ look, and the sunken cheeks is just complete absence of bodyfat.

Exactly! And as said, barring medical conditions, naturals don’t retain fluid.

Being big boned is still a thing though, right?
Like, if I just didn’t have all these big, squishy bones, right around my love handles…

I’m retaining mars bars. Is that a medical condition?

Then those MMA fighters that look close to death on weigh in days and then perfectly fine on fight night is what? body fat coming back?
This is like @T3hPwnisher trying to make a joke about alcohol dehydrating you because you piss and therefore you shouldn’t be holding water. The guy doesn’t drink, and yet he’s trying to tell me about how dehydration and drinking works.
has he ever had a hangover ? I wonder. Your body starts to hold water, @T3hPwnisher you fucking genius. This is why you can see alcoholics that are not fat with serious moon face, or what I like to call Quagmire head.

that’s not a joke. my water cut involves alcohol. Alcohol is used in 2 ways for athletes to cut water. The last thing I drink before I cut out water completely is a lite beer, like coors lite. It absolutely does have a diuretic effect that proves to be quite useful. I take dandelion root with it. On a more casual level, after a night of heavy drinking I usually wake up a few lbs less than I normally do.
The other way it’s used is mixed into a bath, often times with epsom salts. alcohol in bath water can speed up the water cutting process.

It’s not a joke man. Alcohol dehydrates you.
You’re going to laugh when you discover what causes hangovers…

Drinking, actually drinking, will not cause you to shed water, this is ridiculous. Yes, drinking a lite beer or two can help you piss out water, but no one is talking about you drinking beers for the purpose of bodybuilding for christ sakes.
@T3hPwnisher what do you do for a living? I really wonder about you.
Literal lulz.
You understand that an exchange in good faith here would require you to first provide photos of the physique you have claimed you have before I provide even more information about myself, no? It would be unreasonable for me to continue to provide information when you’ve demonstrated no willingness to reciprocate in either regard.
Otherwise, don’t waste time wondering about me. I assure you I am well, as I assume you are also well with your own life.
