I think he means "ripped" as in having lean muscle mass without much fat.

You're talking about getting "dry" for a bodybuilder competition. And that's something that they only do in the last couple of days so that when they walk out on stage there is no WATER retention (not fat loss...water loss) to hide their muscle definition.

That's the unhealthy part of a competition. Because it dehydrates the competitor to a dangerous level.

Getting rid of body fat isn't dangerous...especially if you are building muscle to replace it. That is healthy.
