FIGHTER NEEDS HELP CUT N 10 POUNDS

Hey everyone, not a huge expert on this topic. But a friend of mine is fighting in the 155lb class this comming weekend, and needs to weight 155 or 156 friday night. He is currently 163-164. I told him to space out his meals n keep the carbs very low, or none at all for the next few days. Any ideas from anyone on here? I know that this can be kinda dangerous espically if he becomes dehydrated, so I don't wanna give him any wrong advice! lol, he was gonna hit the sauna thur or fri too....??????

Well, I seen people run in trashbag suits to get rid of weight. I watched Tapout on Spike Channel and saw people doing that. You need some expert advice on this cause losing 8 pounds in a matter of days is a lot.

Is 164 his walking around weight or his waking weight? If it his walking around weight then he is in good shape. He should cut 4-5 pounds by sleeping alone. Then cutting an extra 5 pounds with the low carb diet, sweat suit, and sauna will put him over the top without any real danger to his health. I would put him on a aerodyne bike with a sweatsuit.

cool, thanks guys...sean 164 is his weight in the morn'n.

Ooh, that is going to be harder than expected. I typically lose weight upon sleeping.

With that being the case the diet is going to be the most important part. If he said he was going to hit the sauna he must of already done this before. Hey but if Sean Sherk can cut nearly 30 pounds for his fights, then he shouldn't have a problem.

I agree..I told him to get all his carbs from veggies, cut out all the fruit that he was eat'n, n get his protein from fish n egg whites.

run everyday, sauna for 15 mins, and extremely low carb diet until weigh in...

Sugar Sean, have you ever seen any of Sherk's workouts? if u have then u would know exactly why he can lose so much weight. most insane workout i have ever seen!

have him aim to be with 2-3 pounds by day of the weigh in...then sweat the rest of right before.

trying to cut too much to fast is difficult and dangerous...

2-3 pounds can be done (relatively) easily the day of a weigh in with sauna/saunasuit/cardio sweating

woops this is old just saw that.nevermind.
