His weight..
In this film he is so thin, does anybody know what he did to make himself gain all that weight and muscle for batman begins? Anybody know which diet he went on to gain all that weight back?
shareI'm quite slender, although not as slender as Bale in 'The Machinist'. When i put in the effort to try and bulk up a bit i always manage to get the flu. I'm not sure if it is directly related to the body having difficulty adapting to change at such a quick rate.
Have to say though, i'm not fitness guru or anything like that, but what Bale did in that space of time is nothing short of a miracle and more than likely a result of having a good team of advisers around him as well as plenty of time to achieve the results. I mean, the most ordinary of people don't have the luxury to dedicate everyday in the gym after slogging away at work for 8 hours a day.
You're right, Bale and other actors who need to bulk up fast have an army of nutritionists and trainers who give them all the best advice, information and guidance. This is a major factor. Also, most male actors are genetically gifted in that they are attractive physically. This is one of the reasons they became famous actors in the first place! If you have good physical genes, then you're going to find it much easier to get your body to look good.
As for getting the flu every time you try to bulk up, this is most likely a result of overtraining. You're hitting your body too hard and it's having an impact on your immune system, allowing infections to take advantage. Take it easier and this won't happen.
