The Brazilian forward played all 90 minutes of Atlético Mineiro’s 2-1 win over Tombense.
Eduardo Vargas’ Atlético Mineiro managed to celebrate as visitors last Sunday after beating Tombense 1-2 for the zonal championship.
Of course, one of the situations that caught the eye was the remarkable physical change in striker Hulk, who scored the game-winning goal after Vargas’ assist.
Atlético Mineiro have shared a video on their social media in which the striker is shown recording his weight before and after contesting the commitment. So, the duel began with 97.6 kg and after the competition the footballer scored 91.9 kg .
“Could it be that he ran a lot during the game? Man is a machine in the field! “, they commented on Twitter.
Although the fact is striking, this weight loss is common in the Hulk, as physiotherapist Roberto Chiari explained a few years ago due to the heavy sweating of the ram.
“He sweats a lot, this does not mean that it is bad, indeed the sportsman who sweats a lot uses the most effective mechanism to dissipate his body heat, which is by perspiration. “, commented the specialist in an interview which was collected Mark .
“This sweat, when it evaporates, allows the athlete to lose body heat more efficiently. So, losing a lot of pounds by sweat dehydration is not a problem, it just requires more attention to hydration for this athlete. “, he completed.
For the same reason “our masseuse must be at the edge of the field all the time with isotonic water for him”.
A physical change that they ended up achieving during training. “We realized he had lost a lot of weight in a training session, thank goodness he didn’t reach those five kilos.”
“The fact that the next day he comes back with the same weight as before training is a problem that we can take well and he has no prejudice with that. Chiari closed.
