Ryan Reynolds: Blade 3 workout

Celebrity Workouts

DIET: I ate something pretty much every 2-3 hours, never "stuffing" myself, but never letting myself get hungry. Tons of water throughout the day... BREAKFAST: 1/2 cup egg whites and 2 eggs. Oatmeal - no sugar, a *protein bar 2-3 hours later. (the best oatmeal is this stuff called McCann's Steel Cut Oatmeal. It takes about a half hour to cook, but you just make enough to last a couple weeks. add apple sauce and cinnamon to improve the taste.)

LUNCH: chicken and veggies/brown rice. a *protein bar 2-3 hours later.

DINNER: fish or chicken with salad and vegetables. balsamic vinegar for dressing. couple more ** Optimum Whey Protein Shakes throughout the night and right before bed.

TYPICAL DIET:

Breakfast: 2 eggs, some "good" fat like a spoon of almond butter or slice of avocado, and 1 cup of oatmeal with applesauce

Midmorning snack: protein bar

Lunch: albacore tuna wrap or chicken and salad

Mid-afternoon snack: protein shake (whey and water), protein bar, or apple and almonds

Dinner: broiled fish or chicken, brown rice, vegetables, and salad

Evening Snack: protein shake

While eating a protein/carb mix every 2 hours all day, I'd wind up having about 8 - 10 "tiny" meals instead of 3 big meals over the course of a day. No carbs at night, but plenty during the day. This kind of diet kept my blood sugar even and gave me the requisite energy needed for the physicality of the role...

"Never do any of that carb-starve crap," Reynolds says. Instead, watch the clock. He ate most of his carbohydrates post-workout, and none after 8 p.m

Workouts were about 2-3 hours. Generally starting off with around 500 - 1000 sit-ups. Then heavy weights for bulk. I'm a pretty scrawny guy so we cut cardio entirely and just focused on bulking up. Weight training involved a variety of exercises too numerous to mention at reps of about 8-12, for 6 days a week. After the first week I was longing for the sweet release of death, but soon enough got really into it.

I'd work one body part per day, as in: chest day, back day, shoulder day, leg day, with arms mixed in. Don't know what I was benching. I remember it wasn't anything to brag about.

Submitted by danmanxr on Fri, 11/28/2008 - 18:48.

I worry about diets like Ryan Reynolds' diet. It's one thing to strip and build for a movie role. It's another to have a lifestyle that is healthy. For lots of flabby or overweight people, a healthy lifetime eating pattern will help them shed the fat but also be something they should be able to stay on for their lives.

I think too many people do diets they can't keep up either psychologically or heathily. I know in wrestling we did lots of crazy things to got down 1 and sometimes 2 weight classes. I've seen friends faint as they tried to quickly drop 2 or even 1 pounds. The body comp rule requires 7% minimum bodyfat and that's hard for some wrestlers to achieve safely. Bodies aren't built for that long terms. I know a few guys who are genetically gifted and are both very muscular and naturally very lean. One of my best buds is naturally at 5% bodyfat and can eat almost anything and doesn't get fat. Other guys eat just a little and their bottom row of abs loses definition.

I guess I'm arguing for eating patterns that will achieve a lean muscular body over a long time and not just for the beach, or for wedding day (though I admit I hope whoever is my future wife looks awesome when we get married--be forewarned! LOL) or for sports. Wrestling is definitely one of the biggest offenders.

In football I was to gain and in wrestling I was to maintain. One coach was disappointed in me.

Eat well and eat for a lifetime (yes, I guess that last part sounds stupid. lol)

Especially the kind of information I wanted to work outs make Workouts easier. Everything kept pointing to expensive Work Outs machines or personal trainers. To be quite honest with you, I got tired of looking and searching all over the place, so I decided to create this definitive guide on Work Outs!

I agree, unless you're trying to get into a competition you should have a diet that you can keep up.

Depending on your life style though, you can make changes to adopt new diets. Example, stocking your shelves with healthy food instead of crap. Simple things like that.

Submitted by danmanxr on Fri, 11/28/2008 - 20:05.

Yeah I granted the sports goal angle in my rant. LOL One reason why my friends and I really don't like bodybuilding is the bulking-cutting-bulking-etc cycles. It's the lifestyle that gets us. We like to be muscular and ripped year round. I think I speak for my best buds in saying that we are all trying to maintain our current muscularity. I'm 6'3" and am right at 200 lbs with have 7-8 % bodyfat that's relatively stable. I'm actually fine with this level and have not desire to "get huge" (with a silent "h" there!).

I feel odd in not wanting to gain or lose weight. Or lose fat and gain muscle mass.

I think this is why I react to the diet issues.

LOL I've tried to eat and exercise so that I can maintain my weight and bf after leaving high school sports. I see guys in college who left high school sports and think to myself, "THEY were in sports?"

I have friends from high school wrestling that I worked out with and we got into abs exercising daily after Andy's gymnastics practice. As we grew over the years we packed on lean muscle and our abs really got muscular and all cut up. We made a pact that we would never lose our gains as we went off to college. We started what we call the Thanksgiving Bash. We come back at Thanksgiving since all colleges have break at the same time. We meet up in our old school and use the weightroom and matroom. On that last Saturday of break we lift weights for 60 or 90 minutes as we used to and just have fun. Then we go out for a great steak dinner and just hang there talking for hours after dinner. Then we go back to the weight room and work the shit or of our abs. We have various abs challenges that we all do together. One we did last year with the 5 of us is the "Tag Team Ten Thousand". We have a roman chair situp bench--with a block under the front of the bench to force our abs to remain tensed even as we sit up to the top--and we take turns doing sets of 200 RC situps tagging the new guy in. We do this until as a team we completed 10,000 RC situps. It's not all the difficult but a lot of fun.

Another challenge we did last year was that each of us was held in a full nelson and had to take 5 very hard punches from each of the other 4 guys. We kept that up until one man (aka ANDY the mutha...) was left.

We do this for something to keep our sights on. Once we all left sports it would have too easy to slide.

Anyway diet--the other thing we did afterwards is to figure out how to eat since we weren't in sports. I heard that Michael Phelps ate 10,000 calories a day!! And after he quit swimming--I heard one interview after the Olympics that he had stopped doing all swimming since he was going around to the talk shows. Anyway after he quit swimming I wonder how many calories he eats. It would be a damn shame to see a fat Phelps.
