You're going to go in three or four weeks.
What do you do to look your best in that short period of time?
Let's say it's four weeks.
We've got 30 days.
What are you doing?
You're also not going to lose 20 pounds of body fat.
Yeah, because what you're talking about, a lot of what you're talking about is getting your muscles to deplete, right?
So kind of pull the water out, pull things out, and then fill them back up, which makes them appear larger and fuller.
This is a bodybuilding strategy.
Bodybuilders do this on show.
Well, that's a great point because I think realistically, I mean, aggressively, you could lose in 30 days 3%, 4%.
But your body fat, that's at the most.
But you're going to end up probably losing some muscle with that.
I'd say more realistically, you could lose like 2%.
Yeah.
Body fat in a 30-day period, which isn't a ton.
And I just want people to understand that because I think sometimes people are like, oh, 30 days out, I'm going to lose tons of weight.
No.
What ends up happening is they lose a lot of water and muscle along with it.
So they end up hitting the beach or the pool looking kind of smaller and not leaner.
