Soon after Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan gets up this morning in his Downtown Brooklyn hotel, he'll hop into an epsom salt bath which will be hotter than most of us mere mortals would be able to bear.

It’s all part of a weigh-in day ritual that helps shed a few vital pounds; copious sweating and invaluable cleansing.
