A body like the Celebs?

We've all wanted to have a body of a celeb, or just literally wanted a celeb, and it's no suprise when they look as good as Hugh Jackman, Jessica Biel, Daniel Craig, or some of these guys:

Ryan Reynolds

Scarlett Johansson

And further to this, while the movie isn't released yet, THOR star Chris Hemsworth will have female mouths watering when they see his transformation:

So how can you build a bod just like these guys? Realise this: each one of the actors/actresses had anywhere from 6-12 months to prepare for the movie roles that made our mouths gape wide open. They were paid to train and eat well all day long. All you need to do is Google what some of them did to get in shape for their movie role, and you'll see just how much effort they went to look like they do. Oh, and some CGI touching up for promotional reasons may have helped.....

Have a look at each one of the mentioned stars now, and whilst they still remain lean and mean, none of them look like they did in the movie, and that's simply due to not being able to carry on such intense training and nutrition beyond the finishing of making the movie.

Back to our point - achieving the body of a celeb. Can it be done?? It most certainly can, but remember that our timeframe to achieve such a body may be well out of proportion to what these guys achieved it in. What I want you to take awy from this blog post is this:

All of these celebs achieved their body through hard work, but most importantly, they were CONSISTENT.

Consistency is the key, and unfortunately, it is the downfall of many of us. You will never get close to looking like these guys unless you consistently make the effort.

We all get that sudden urge to 'make a change', and that may see us go the gym 5 days straight one week, and follow a diet plan that in our mind can only be described as pure awesomeness for what it will supposedly help us achieve.

But the next week, we go to the gym once, and our diet gets blown away on the weekend. And so there comes the end of that so called diet plan. We overdid things, and the key, consistency, is no longer.

I will be blogging further on ways we can stay consistent, as I believe it's importance to us all achieving our dream body is priority number one.

Enjoy your day!

Yours in training,

Matt
