These Bodybuilders And Fighters Almost Died While Training

Cris Cyborg Used Dangerous Dehydration Sheets To Lose Water Weight

To drop weight, Cris Cyborg started training around the clock and spent long periods resting inside of a steaming hot sauna, but that wasn’t the worst of it.

In disturbing footage from the documentary An Inside Look At The Sacrifice Of Greatness, Cris is shown sobbing on a floor as people wrap her in dangerous dehydration sheets. These sheets are designed to pull every last drop of water out her body, and reportedly brought her “close to death.” One trainer remarked about the process, “What we do is we all sit here in a room and watch a human being bring themselves close to death.”

Cris managed to make weight and won the two-round match.
