Im not going by one person Im going by prob millions of ppl over the last 50-60 yrs that have been eating 6+ meals a day and drinking more water than the avg person.
You have to remember that this is a bodybuilding forum and what the avg person does has nothing to do with us...we are not trying to be avg....if you want to be avg then by all means drink only when your thirsty and eat only a small number of meals a day.
By how they look lol.......is it even a question....
I'll just go with what ppl have done for years and years and continue to do and will continue to do for years and years to come to become above avg....results speaking for themselfs. As I said Id rather do what has been shown to work than what a medical journal has written in it.
And you can do whatever you think is right in your medical journals.
You missed it again 10 meals and heaps of water works. Just no better.
I'll say it again I'm so so glad our doctors and scientists use better logic than this.
I have no idea if its better or not - but i'll go with whats proven to get the best results.
A medical journal may say its no diff, real life experience says there is. Again you cant say yay or nay on either...but for me real life experience means more.
Im not saying yay or nay at all. The british medial journal is saying so far no decent studies show that it makes a difference. This is not yay or nay it's just so far the best reasearch with real life people, and actuall figures and measurements, not just guesses about what the bros are doing, show it doesn't matter. If this is not real life I don't know what is.
I don't care really. You stick to your 6.75 lt of water and 9.839 meals a day and I'll concentrate on things that actually matter.
How doesnt that matter?? - so diet and water intake dont matter to a bodybuilder lol
Brb drinking 400L of milk a day
Show me were I said diet and water don't matter?? Your trying to start a argument I'm not saying.
I'm saying excess water and very high meal frequency don't matter.
400Lt. Are you cutting??
Hopefully this would put this medical myth to bed once and for all.
It’s a medical myth that one needs to drink 8 glasses of water per day. Okay then, let us go back to the person who told you that you aught to drink 8 glasses of water in a day. You won’t find it in any scientific literature.
The origin may be found here: in 1945, the food and nutritional board of the natural research council recommended and I quote: “A suitable allowance for water for adults is 2.5 Liters daily in most instances. Most of this quantity is contained in prepared foods.”
So now here’s where people went wrong. They focused on the first part of the message and forgot to quote the second sentence in that message. Hence, the message was now understood/misunderstood to imply one drink an additional 2.5 liters (8 glasses) of water a day and ignored the part that spoke of these water is mostly contained in the food/drinks we consume in our normal day.
Now that does not mean one does not need any additional water during the day if for example a need is warranted. This need could arise due to exercising intensely and perspiring profusely due to whatever circumstance.

Fadi.
I drink water until my urine is almost clear..... I thought this was what you were ment to do?
Lol is this based of your expert medical opinion who doesn't listen to medial journals or medical science.
Athletes are humans too. They are not another species. You do exercise you sweat you get thirsty you have a drink. Your body is very good at regulating water. Look at the clip fadi put up. It doesn't have to be a glass of water people get a large percentage of there water intake through food not to mention milk, coffee and soft drinks and other liquids.
It would be interesting to see a study done on people who force feed themselves extra water. It may actually reduce athletic performance due to diluting the levels of salt in the body? I dont know, maybe maybe not, it would depend on how much water they are forcing down. We know it is dangerous to drink very large volumes of water and many people have died from doing this.
