Dave Bautista ‘Killing’ Himself To Keep Scary Slim Bod, Why?
Since his days competing in the WWE to his turn as an action star, Dave Bautista has always been known for his hulking, muscular figure. However, he is rocking a much slimmer figure these days, and many of his biggest fans are concerned for his health. So, what did Bautista have to say about his health?
Dave Bautista Was Larger Than Life In The WWE
When Dave Bautista was at his physical peak in the WWE, he stood at 6’6 and was close to 300 pounds of pure muscle. He was a towering figure in the organization. With those kinds of stats, it’s no surprise how he shot to the top of the organization before he eventually transitioned into acting roles.
It’s not often that strength, size, and charisma all come together in a single individual. However, Dave Bautista had all of those ingredients, and he used them to his advantage throughout his tenure in the organization. This is largely why his recent drop in weight is concerning a lot of his longtime fans.
Bautista Shocks With 75-Lb Slim Down
The Guardians of the Galaxy actor is rocking a significantly slimmer body these days. Fans are used to seeing the actor and wrestler as this towering figure with muscles and veins popping everywhere. So, naturally, a lot of people have been wondering about whether Bautista is sick, or if there could be something else wrong with him.
According to the actor, he said he got to a point where he really needed to make a change. He said: “I started slimming down because I just got fat. I got really big for a role, and it was uncomfortably big…” He added: “I was around 315 pounds, and I put the weight on really fast. … I packed it on with French fries and pancakes.”
He went on to add: “Looking back at it, I probably overdid it. I was probably a little too big. I put on an uncomfortable amount of weight and it took me forever to shed it off.”
Dave Bautista Reveals Why He Wants To Keep His Current Weight
As much as people think that Bautista is sick due to his crazy weight loss, the reality is, he is currently at 240, which is by no means a stick figure, either. WWE wrote Bautista as 6’6, but in reality, he calls himself 6’4. Still, 6’4 and 240 is nothing to laugh at.
According to Bautista, he prefers to maintain this current weight that he is at now rather than to try and bulk up again or pack on the pounds. Speaking of his current physique, the actor said that committing to his current lifestyle has not been easy.
