Dear /fit/ How do you properly dehydrate yourself to get a more ripped look for a show temporarily?

I hear about bodybuilders slowly taking down their water intake so they can look ripped before a contest.

So how would one properly dehydrate themselves for something like that?

Safely of course.

Drink lots of cheap wine. LOTS of it. No joke.

Yeah, I heard alcohol can help with that.
But I heard you shouldn't do it the night before, so like, drink it a couple nights before?

Unfortunately that's where my knowledge fails me. Think back to all those times you were hungover though. That's peak dehydration right there. So probably go on a wild bender for a couple of nights in a row before and don't eat any actual food.

Probably not healthy, but it'll probably work.

Also, I would just like to point out that these two statements contradict each other, so you might as well do it the best way you know how. Get salmonella for liquid shits, and drink lots of wine to get the rest out. That should get you good and dehydrated.

BTW you'd be an idiot to take my advice seriously. But it WILL work.

Hmm, yeah I am an Idiot for taking the advice.
It's more just in curiosity.

I managed to do some research around and found this too.

"The dehydrated status is set up and targeted just for the day of the competition. People do it different ways but the way I do it is to drink at least 2 gallons a day for the full week prior, about 4 gallons the day prior and then the night before the competition, about 15 hours from the stage apperance, stop drinking all together. This places the body in overdrive, pumping fluids through (trust me you pee every 20 minutes), by the time your body makes the adjustment to try to retain fluids its too late it's already flushed itself dry. This, I believe is the easiest and healthiest way to draw the fluid out, your body is only in that dehydrated state for about 14 or so hours."

And drinking some coffee a little bit before gives a duiretic effect.

Thanks for the advice though.

And yeah, I do know that you already have to have something there for it to work.

Being a tubby and dehydrating yourself would be pointless.

i heard that a lot of bodybuilders load up on tons of potassium the night before because it dehydrates you, and i dont think this would be dangerous
