A new Biggest Loser season begins...
And I almost want to call major bullshit.
Multiple participants lossed an average of 10-20lbs in 1 week. I just cant see that happening, let alone, with multiple people. The oldest one (62 years old) lossed 31lbs? In just a fucking week?!
If this show JUST started, I might be inclined to possibly believe it as these fatties are shipped off AWAY from the world and thrust into nothing but proper diet and exercise. However, in the past shows, the average weekly loss was ~5-15lbs. 20+lbs were few and far between. I think on the previous shows' first weigh ins, they lossed just a handful of pounds, then a lot, then a handful again. Somehow in this season, they skipped the first weeks and got thrust into weight drop land.
I love this show, but last night was too unbelievable.6' 217lbs (10/18)
Bench 365 (12/3)
Weighted Pullups 80lbs 3x3 (3/19)
Squat 370
Deadlift after herniation 385lbs 3x3 (3/17)
NASM certified 2/06

If I remember correctly I was also pretty sick after the practice, severe dehydration, etc, lost 1 gallon of fluid.

Carb + salt + water loading before the initial weigh in
Water loss + dierhutics + enema = huge weight difference

their diets are reduced to about 1200 calories for ladies and less than 2000 for the guys.
keep watching the rest of the show, their weightloss slows down to a couple pounds a week. with anyone, the first weeks are dramatic because you are losing water and what ever else is stored in your intestinal tract due to inadequate fiber intake.Know the Rules:
1. Cardio; 2. The Double Tap
; 4. Wear Seat Belts; 22. When in doubt Know your way out;
31. Check the back seat; 32. Enjoy the little things
