Ryan Reynolds was training for Blade and Will Smith for ALI so you can safely assume their training included resistance work, cardio sessions, fight training, flexibility (yoga/Pilates/whatever) choreography (practicing falls, sword skills, getting hit etc.), which in real time would equate to at least 3-4 hours maybe even more broken up into different sessions throughout the day. All of this would be considered training’ whereas most of us would simply be weight training

Steroids are illegal, celebs can’t say they did them.

If your goal was the most musclular gain you could do and you had as much time to train and as much food as you could eat how would your structure your day/training? What woudl it look like? Interested becasue i have 8 more weeks of basically this. And love training so i would be fine with putting in as much time as one could.

i find it very strange reading online mainly from media articles about how celebs train or trained for hours everyday, sometimes as many as 4-6, maybe this is a denial method to stop people thinking there on steroids. this is not just limited to celebs but other gym goers online.
if you cheated a exam at school and got 100 percent to everyones shock, your gonna say you studied for hours and hours until the early hours of the morning right?
A article says ryan reynolds and will smith trained for 3 hours and six hours a day respectivley. it isnt just celebrities ive heard people say it on forums that they train for hours and hours but ive never really seen anyone do it ( i work in a gym btw )
ive trained with a top british pro in his gym and a few amauters and no one really trains for much over an hour…just wondering does anyone here actaully train for over 2.5 hours on a regular basis just sound like bs too me, but i may be wrong.
my acutal point is that it is a very bad message to newbies and especially teenagers who may think they have to train for hours and end up completley ruined, exhausted, injured, not to mention coritsol levels limiting gains. Perhaps thats there own fault for being naive but you see my point.

Because celebs have a much smaller time frame to change their bodies. Conceivably I could plan my weight and cardio training over 1-2 years.
An actor might have to change their bodies to fit a role in 2-4 months. Even if you are on steroids, you still haveto train really really hard.
Imagine you are training for a role as a boxer - you have a load of weight to shed, muscle to build and be able to box convincingly.
You might box for 2 hours a day, flexibility/mobility/tempo run for another 2 hours, and 2 hours doing a variety of weight exercises + physio + ice baths/warming up etc.
I think it’s a bit of both.
They indeed trained hard because they knew money was on the line and that they be up on the big screen so they had to look good.
I think many of them use some drugs to help them along too.
People who think it was all hard work are wrong and those think it all came out a bottle are wrong.
Off-topic but gotta say it: If for getting millions you have to take a pill, 99,99% of the people would do it in a heartbeat, so it’s not strange that athletes and celebs do it.
I’ve also thought that if a Hollywood producer came up to me and said they needed me in a movie (like a remake of They Live he he) and they told me I needed to lose 30 lbs so they would get me a personal trainer I’d have to say OK, but instead of a personal trainer…get me a personal chef…I can kick my own ass but I have more trouble making myself eat right.

I soet of agree with you. But at the same time, I don’t really think that many of these “transformations” are all that impressive or impossible to do clean. It’s not like we’re talking about Arnold like shape here. And these are people who by and large stay lean and attractive without training daily (unless for a role). Certainly there are some who train regularly outside of role prep, but many stars don’t because they don’t like to. So, take someone.who has a naturally fairly lean physique and doesn’t train regularly and put them into intense training for 3/4 months…it’s like newbie gains all over again for many (not all). I can count the number of real “shit he looks jacked. That must have taken work” moments I have had in moden cimema on one hand really.
Just sayin.

You can count me in that list. not a second thought.

Hmnn interesting question. I guess I’d take a page out of Arnold’s book and try to address every aspect of growth that you can, similar to a newborn; Rest and Food. Obviously the training would be it’s own aspect. Off the top of my head, I’d suggest:
-Higher frequency bouts, with lower volume each session
-Some heavy sessions with longer rest periods as well as some lighter work, to prevent injury, speed nutrient delivery, and possibly enable fascial stretching
-Rest as much as possible, 8 hours a night + afternoon naps
-Targeted nutrition, keeping carbs where they’ll be useful, and limit them all other times
-If I get up to piss during the night, eat something, if not, no worries
-Split muscle groups as much as possible,… within reason! I’ve always thought about doing quads and hams on separate days, but with real life getting in the way, just how much time can you reasonably spend in the gym? -lol
-No stress, Leave your phone at home when training
-Only music from MY Ipod over the gym speaker system, no whining or bitching from anyone!

Sometimes I end up doing 5-6 hours of exercise a day. 1 hour of PT with my unit in the morning, going to the gym for 90 mins or so, basketball practise for a couple of hours. Granted its not everyday, but its possible. Remember these guys are trying to sell their image, so they more publicity it gets, the better
