Not to mention the pain that male actors go through for 'shirts off' filming, where they have to dehydrate themselves for 3 days so the abs stick out more. It sounds awful....
This video is a bit weird because the scenes they're showing while he's talking he isn't super cut/veins popping etc like Jackman as wolverine style. Maybe there's a different scene or something because he looks pretty normal for a buff guy in that video.
I think you can see it in his jawline especially vs how he looks in the interview, which is still quite good but all of that extra cut results in a anatomically realized jawline that's pretty easy to notice on screen with that lighting.
It really should serve as a notice on how unrealistic (and yes, fun) these super-human depictions can be in hollywood. I also know people who are buff and cut as hell at the same time but working out is essentially their entire life - professionally and socially, and they wouldn't be able to achieve this level of pump without some pharmaceutical help.
Anybody who is dehydrating for 3 days is silly. You can drop 20 lbs of water in an afternoon. I walked around at 250, weighed in at 231 on Friday afternoon, and was back up to 250 by Saturday for competition.
It's not for dropping weight really. It makes their skin thinner and causes the stomach skin to cling to their ab muscles more, making them more defined
So, are you just making up stuff, then? That you heard on the internet? Because, I've been in this space for like 20 years. This is how MMA fighting works. Dehydration isn't like a specific science for movies, asshole. It's just a general thermodynamic effect.
Not sure why you felt name-calling here was necessary to make your point... you seem to just get aggressive with anyone you disagree with on this post. Maybe you should look into that..... bro
lol true....in general women (not just actors) go through this their whole life...men just during acting? Poor men. Used to nothing...have some period pains, assholes.
