Can anyone explain the drinking shitloads of water thing?
It's bullshit, but bullshitters always want to go one better than the last bullshitter. I used to see this on strength training forums, where somebody would be talking about the importance of hydration and the gym bros would out-boast each other about how much you were supposed to drink till somebody said "You have to keep drinking water till your piss is as clear as the water you were drinking".
It's stupid and unhealthy. Making yourself have to piss that much drains your body of salt and other minerals.
