A friend told me ;) that when you partake as Ricky did, you have an increased appetite. So how did he lose so much weight? I understand not working out he would lose muscle, but c'mon...:evil:

Yogurt... err, I mean Yoga!
 
actually, when you stop working out you are supposed to gain a ton of weight. Not lose weight, the only way players usually end up as small as he did is if he stopped taking steroids. It's either that or his insane diet. I wouldn't put him past steroids though.
 
He had a foot infection. It had nothing to do with working out or steroids.
 
whenever u work out as much as he did u pass ur natural body weight by a lot, and when u stop lifting ur body takes u back to its natural weight thats why they loose so much so fast
 
I read he had a very strict vegetarian diet w/ little to no snack foods, and he never worked out....thatll do it for ya.
 
It's called muscle atrophy. As bulked-up as RW was, then the lack of use (in the weight room) caused RW to lose all that muscle mass, which results in a huge weight loss.

There's no reason to think he was doing roids:shakeno: He stayed in shape, but lost his muscle mass it is that simple

You don't believe me??? When you play sports and workout all the time you gain a ton of weight after you stop.

Muscle mass will fade rapidly if you stop working out. Muscle is heavy, and is MUCH MORE heavy than fat. Ricky was always busy with something after he walked away from the Dolphins, whether it was traveling, hiking, etc. The weight gain you are talking about is when someone stops working out and sits on their arse, like what happened to me. :lol:
