    Yeah they will typically time the cutting/dehydration to film all the “muscle shots” at the same time. The actors are miserable during this time period, and will and will quickly hydrate/switch to maintenance eating after this

      Yeah standard weight cutting, and then aggressive pre-show preparation. Ironically, they’re probably at their weakest during competition / shows, due to the dehydration and starvation beforehand.

      The not-shredded wolverine could lift harder and run longer than his tougher looking counterpart.
