How the movie dudes get in shape for a movie. 70% if it is diet and the other is lots of sets and reps. http://www.gq.com/story/fitness-how-to-get-chris-pratt-fit?mbid=social_twitter
And in 10 weeks, you'll look like Tobey Maguire: "...he can make me look like a camera-ready Tobey Maguire..." Meanwhile the guys who "transformed" materially in a relatively short period of time had chemical assistance.
Actually actors are strongly dissuaded from "chem" help. It's written into contracts, the legal ramifications of suggesting chems or for the studio/producer selected trainer to do so are enormous. As they progress from 1 a day workouts with trainers they move to 2 a day workouts 5 or 6 days a week. I'm aware this flies in the face of conventional wisdom. Here's an example of a modified program applied to average people. http://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-get-a-body-like-an-underwear-model-2015-5 The key, as always, is accepting that it's a lifestyle change. Discipline and determination are needed, not many truly possess that. edit: Nobody has only 10 days. Generally they will have 4- 6 mos. to get in shape if it's a major feature production.
Banjo, I'm not talking about just getting lean and toned like the guy in your link (who could at least have had the decency to wear shorts). I'm talking about the guys who go from skinny (or fat) to sporting a gymnast caliber physique or more in a period of a few months. Chemical assistance has a fairly recognizable "look" regardless of muscle size.
Just look at the pec area right on the clavicle and the traps. Those areas tend to have more androgen receptors than other places on the body so they tend to blow up very quickly. The pec area immediately on the clavicle is also harder to develop for the "normal/natural" trainee. I'd say upper pec but there is no "upper pec." It's tough speculating w some of these actors tho. It also depends how detrained or untrained a person was before they started training. That plays a huge role as does the money to pay for a personal chef lolol.
Random question for you educated fitness guys: have you heard of Kelly Starrett, and is this guy legit or just a good salesman? I was interested in buying his book after watching a YouTube video of his, but the more I watch the more it seems like he's a bogus guru.
The article made it clear that all this was about was losing fat with diet and toning up with high rep schemes. And the camera would put on the bigger muscle illusion. It said that putting on ten pounds of muscle was a different thing altogether and takes a long time. And that wasn't the intent of this particular get in shape method.
Legit. I do mobility work before every session most of which I learned from his info. Many techniques are different from what I knew but they have helped me tremendously.
