Personal Trainer
Bleu’s personal trainer is Chad Landers, who is also the owner of Push Private Fitness situated in North Hollywood. He is working with him since Bleu was 18. By working with Chad, Bleu was able to drop his weight from 170 pounds to 156 pounds.
For his appearance on Dancing With The Stars, Bleu wanted to look leaner and so he took the help of a bath – a bath in which three to four bags of Epson salt is dissolved in hot water. Four to six, 16 ounces of rubbing alcohol bottles are also added to that solution. One’s job is to stay in the tub of that hot salty water for as much time as they can tolerate. Corbin did that and had an instant weight loss kinda thing. He lost 7 pounds of body weight from 156 to 149 pounds only in a night’s time. That’s pretty much instant.
This weight loss is due to the water loss from the body. A human’s two-third body weight is due to water. And, this solution removes that water from the body. About 3% water loss from the body is risk-free. This weight loss happens as the salt concentration in the tub is more than that in the skin. And, so the water flows from the skin to the tub in order to make it more dilute (or less concentrated). This process is called osmosis. The alcohol is added to that solution to prevent water from re-entering the body.
