    Is this a healthy diet/fitness regime. By the way know i posted something on ryan reynolds twice and I'm not gay, just this is the type of body I'd like to have(impossible I know but is what I would be aiming for)..

    Breakfast: 2 eggs, some “good” fat like a spoon of almond butter or slice of avocado, and 1 cup of plain oatmeal (with applesauce for flavor)
    Snack: a protein bar
    Lunch: albacore tuna wrap or chicken and salad
    Snack: protein shake (whey and water), protein bar, or apple and almonds
    Dinner: broiled fish or chicken, brown rice, vegetables, and salad
    Snack: whey protein shake
    As you can see, he followed a high protein diet, although he also ate a reasonable amount of carbs as well. But even though Ryan followed an extremely intense diet, you dont get this ripped without an outstanding workout plan to complement the diet. His personal training, Darren Chapman, had Ryan performing daily workouts for 2-3 hours. To start out, he would do 500-1000 sit-ups, which he found meditative. To develop his lower abs, which most people find very difficult, Ryan would lie on his back and put an exercise ball between his legs, lifting it up and down. For all of the other muscles of the body, he followed a one body part per day workout philosophy. One day would be be chest day then back day, shoulder day, leg day, with arms mixed in.
    In order to pack on even more muscle, he also took several supplements. He took L-glutamine, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), whey, a multivitamin, and creatine, which he noticed really helped him bulk up.

    First of all - Reynolds looked scrawny in that photo - how about a real role model like MMA fighter GSP?

    Diet looks good, I wouldn't bother with hundreds of sit-ups though, waste of time, get yourself doing full body workouts, rest, repeat.

    kroc vs st pierre

    Id go with the canadian david. Kroc DOES look like bruce banner on the juice. IMHO he did not do 1000 sit ups, thats crazy, he prob said that he did those but with a cheeky grin as he imagined all the people reading that article trying to get a decent six pack by JUST doing crunches. I think LL cool J said the same thing.

    Its 189 pages of ab crunch variations :D
