Increasing water intake is your best bet usually. If it's bloat you mean try reducing meal sizes (not calories, just distribution of them throughout the day.

Where is the water coming from?

Lots of great suggestions, knowing where the water is coming from would help pinpoint the answer or answers.

I have always used dandelion root for a natural diuretic and increased water intake.

Dandelion.
Should be available at any supplement/health food store. It comes in capsules. Helpful for the liver too as it increases the flow of bile.
Take double the recommended dose on the bottle for a few days and it should help you drop some water.
Another option, although not one I would choose, would be to go to the women's section in the drugstore and purchase "water-pills". Some women use them during their period when they feel bloated.

On or off cycle?
Recently you said something to the effect of: “men are made while cruising—anybody can crush it at the gym while blasting.”
Do you need to remain off cycle for the same timeframe you blast? For example, 12 weeks on blast requires 12 weeks of cruise?
