Taking diuretics?

[Carmine20]

Is it worth taking diuretics for someone who is at about 10% BF or are they meant for people who are around the 5% BF range? thanks.

Why would you want to take diuretics? Are you preparing for a show?? If no then there is no point. Rather drink more water...

No need to use it unless your about to do a photo shoot and you want to look a little leaner. even if you were preparing for a show, you would not use it until a day out and if your 10% BF, I doubt your about to do a show anytime soon.

not really a show just a silly bet i have with my friend on who looks more lean by the end of next month, i figure if it helps why not. thanks for the feedback fellas.

if it is for a bet i would definitely stay away from prescription diuretics, the risks FAR outweigh the benefits for something like that. I dont think any harm will come if you use an OTC version as long as you keep your water intake high and you dont change anything too much with diet and training.
