Humans simply don't know anything about anything.

Your ability to debate has officially regressed from 3rd grade, to pre-school. Good job!

Nice. Basically the same goal. I hit 194 this morning

A right wing hypocrite, who like Fox News, tries to deflect by accusing me of a similar bias.



Hey, you asked...

I don't like Fox News... O'Reilly amuses me from time to time...

You may say you don't like them, but you use the very same tactics.

"[ Q ] What do you have your guys eating? I am assuming they don't become overweight from eating too much protein.

My guys usually don't have any problems because I have them eating pretty clean. They eat carbohydrates like yams, brown rice, small red-skinned potatoes and oatmeal. The bodybuilding lifestyle is all based on that, but I try to take it to another level.

For example, the biggest trick I teach, which is a trade secret within bodybuilding, is before a contest (to make weight) or show, have your fighter sit in a hot bath - the hottest water they can handle - with approximately one gallon of Epsom Salt and five to eight bottles of Winter Green rubbing alcohol, (which is pored on the body).

They lay in there and it sucks out all the subcutaneous water, while allowing the body to retain its intramuscular water. For bodybuilding purposes, if you sit in that for 30 to 45 minutes, pad dry it off, and go straight to sleep. When you wake up in the morning you will be shredded."

Anyway, eating healthy is pretty common sense, but I was looking for some solid advice on making those last two lower abs pop through. Aside from the general common sense nutrition stuff (don't drink sodas, etc.) there was great, GREAT debate on every forum or comment section I read. Carbs are the devil, carbs are the bomb...can't survive without 'em, eat lots of fruit, don't eat any fruit, blah blah blah...and so on.

Then I realized that pretty much every subject is like this from religion to politics to the environment and that we just don't know shit....but man, we sure do get an A+ for pretending we do!

I would start with one goal at a time... Make weight for you're fight, then figure out how to manipulate your diet so you can drop more bodyfat. Also low abdominal exercises will help your lower abs stand out.

I honestly don't know anything about this stuff, but I've read that the hot bath, epsom salt, rubbing alcohol thing is dangerous... Don't know, not sure, but it's worth researching.

I'm 6' tall dude, if I make 145lbs my lower abs will be very visible.

It's no more dangerous than trying to sweat it out for 4 hours in a sauna.

It's all the same thing, purposely dehydrating body is never safe. But he's only going to drop 10lbs, which in the grand scheme of things SHOULD be ok. Also if he just does it to make a weigh in, he can easily regain that water by carbing up and rehydrating the day of his fight(pending it's a night fight and he weighed in hours earlier)

That's pretty skinny, however being skinny and being lean can be 2 different things. I was 6' 166lbs for a bodybuilding contest, the leanest I've ever been in my life and my lower abs weren't popping yet.

Muscular development as well as a LOW bodyfat will bring them out.
