squatty relax mate theres no argument going on here just a difference of opinion it seems,and surely thats fine on a forum as if everybody agreed with everything everyone said it would pretty much come to a standstill surely.....in my opinion the fella really should have asked advice from a fight trainer as opposed to a bodybuilder....its a bit like a plasterer asking a chippy for advice about plastering a wall ! yes the chippy will more than likely know enough to give advice,but why not ask a good experienced plasterer,makes perfect sense surely.
ive seen a lot of bodybuilder types come into gyms before and dish out advice(not saying anyones doing this here by the way) and 9 times out of 10 its been advice based on their own sport which really has no relevance in fighting,the lad listening thinks the fella must know his stuff as he "looks the part"...yet in reality the advisor wouldnt last 3 minutes on the mat...for example what battlehawk was actually asking about,making weight for a fight, is an extremely important part of a fight,which again,would have absolutely no relevance to how a bodybuilder would eat,train or make weight...so this being of such importance i personally think the fella would benefit more from asking people who have to do this regularly,as opposed to bodybuilders.
of course there is going to be examples where a bodybuilder has gone into other fields,same as a plasterer might end up a brickie etc...on the whole tho it still doesnt make sense to me to ask advice from people outside of your own sport,just ask successful or knowledgable people in your own sport...and this works both ways
