weight loss, quickly

Beds outside of shaving all of the hair off your body, spending the two weeks on the toliet and sweating the fluid out of your body I can't think of much.

If you don't have to be that weight then don't sweat it (pun semi intended) stepping on the scales and seeing that you're a stone lighter won't make you 'a stone healthier' (there's no such thing). Just eat healthily keep active and train hard and you'll get there.

cheers for all the replies

colonic irrigation more like anal interogation so i'll give that a miss!!!

my thinking was although after training in heat you sweat alot, the water can be replenished but the calories burned cannot if sticking to a strict diet, but i'll just eat well and train hard, gutted i cant make boxing training tomo night, gotta wait till tuesday but been invited to an invite only mma class that some of the boxing lads do, they say its a top workout

Know a guy here, I've always known him to have one of the most solid chins I've ever witnessed.

Sweated out 14lbs in 3 days before a fight.
Putty to the opponent, stopped in 2.

And are going to keep doing so!

Have been readfing a lot recently about the effects of dehydration on the body.
Water itself is obviously essential to the body.
What I hadn't considered was the associated effects of dehydration.
I never thought of water's role as a medium in which to carry nutrients, chemicals and hormones.

By draining the body we lose the essential salts which serve as the source of electrolytes for muscles and the nervous system. At the same time the shedding of water will cause muscles to enter a state of nutrient imbalance, essentially depriving them of fuel.

In training this results in injurys and cramp. Indeed it seems to be the primary cause of the dreaded nocturnal calf cramps.

In a fight dehydration will rob a fighter of his/her equilibrium, reduce the efficiency of functional muscles and decrease endurance....

Thats what i took from it myself anyway, so if I can figure out how dodge it is, why don't experienced knowledgable trainers end this custom?

most people just pass on what they were taught without questioning it.

It's indeed stupid. One thing that they should know, is that it takes a lot longer to rehydrate than to dehydrate. You can't just drink a gallon of water and think that it'll be alright.

I guess a lot of trainers are just clueless when it comes to weight loss, it's still surprising to see this practiced at the elite level. It's a sure way to get knocked out.
