How the actors of "300" got Spartan buff
The movie "300", based on a novel by Frank Miller is a story filled with waring Spartans and Persians showcasing their sweaty rippling pecs and six packs in battle after he-man battle for the plight of testosterone filled democracy...Yeah okay, my brain is obviously focused else where but who can help it when you have all this studly warrior eye candy stampeding toward you on the screen. Whew!
In this clip, you can see just how trainer Mark Twight of Gym Jones turned the "300" actors into Spartan performing displays of vigorous-ness. Yes, they are so vig-o-rous! Josh Hillis has an in-depth write up about the actual workouts, and how you can do them too. I think I'd rather just watch the results running around in their little Spartan outfits with my box of popcorn and Diet Coke.
