Re: Fasting
[ QUOTE ]
When I wrestled in HS I probably ate 500 or less calories per day for days at a time. I wasn't very strong at the end of the season, but I was in phenomenal cardiovascular shape and weighed the least I ever have in my adult life.

Seriously, everytime I talk to a friend that wrestled in highschool I ask myself wtf were their coaches thinking. These kids are lucky enough to be talented and involved in a sport that can make them great allround athletes, and their coaches go and ruin it by forcing them into starvation to stay in a weight class. Newsflash: if you are 15 you're going to be gaining weight cause you're [censored] growing. jesus christ.
