These Bodybuilders And Fighters Almost Died While Training

MMA Fighter Dean Garnett Admits He Feels “Not Far From Death” While Cutting Weight

MMA fighter Dean Garnett goes through grueling lengths to cut weight. In a recent BBC article, the fighter outlined how he loses 10 percent of his body weight in less than a day. Garnett follows dangerous, dehydrating moves. He spends almost all of his time in a bath or sauna. When he’s not in the sauna, he wraps himself in sheets and quilts in order to draw out moisture. He spends all day chewing on ice cubes to pull saliva out of his mouth, and he instead of swallowing any of it, he spits it all out.

According to Garnett, this entire process makes him feel “not far from death.”
