But not all actors and actresses are naturally built this way before they shoot a film. Their structure is forged in a series or rigorous and sweat-inducing workouts, partnered with a very strict diet. What baffles people the most is the sheer speed in which they can alter their body shape and transform into these larger than life characters which they are portraying. Some people are quick to jump to the assumption that such a rapid growth can only be associated with the use of human growth hormones or anabolic steroids, but it is in-fact purely down to the actors pure determination. One of the most drastic changes in recent memory was that performed by Robert Downey Jr. when he was cast in the Iron Man film franchise. His diet and exercise regime revolved around a tightly regulated series of combinations. His trainer had him focus on a periodization program that made him alternate between sets containing heavy weights with low reps and lighter weights with more reps. His plan involved working out five times a week for anywhere between 40 to 90 minutes. His workout would be made up of bench presses, dips and military presses. This routine is considered to be the classic old school weight training tactic and really assisted in his building muscle mass. Gerard Butler's workout regime for his role in the film 300 was rather brutal and required a tremendous amount of work and dedication. The fitness routine comprised of: • Pull-ups: 25 reps • Deadlifts: 50 reps with 135 pounds • Push-ups: 50 reps • Box jumps, 24″: 50 reps • Floor wipers: 50 reps • Clean and press, single arm: 50 reps, 36-pound kettlebell • Pull-ups: 25 reps • Gymnastics style training
