Push Harder<\/strong>: Chris Evans is getting a lot of recognition for his transformation into Captain America. He really pushed himself to get into top shape for the role and according to him it wasn\u2019t easy. He told PopSugar<\/em>,\u00a0“This was different. I’d walk out (of the gym) and I’d be like, \u00a0‘I need to vomit. I hate this trainer. I hate this movie. I want to go to sleep for a week’. It was just relentless.\u201d<\/p>\n Obviously, now, he’s enjoying the results of his training. For those of us, myself definitely included, who want to change the appearance of our bodies, in addition to living healthy, we should learn this type of motivation. Push until you can\u2019t do it anymore. Run five more minutes, do five more reps, whatever it takes to get the results you want. Hate the work, but love the results!<\/p>\n Change your routine<\/strong>: When it came time to prepare for \u201cIron Man 2\u201d Robert Downey Junior was at his limits. In a WebMD feature, he states \u201cIf I have to get underneath a bench press or [do] a squat, I’m going to shoot myself. I just don’t have the motivation.\u201d So what did his training consist of? According to his trainer, he used tires, fire hoses filled with sand and water, sledgehammers, football sleds, bands, and even bamboo sticks with weights on the ends to workout. He worked all of the same muscles but didn\u2019t have to go to the gym. If you’re like most, you don\u2019t have tires and fire hoses laying around the house, but you can get creative. Weighted boxing gloves, a weight vest<\/a>, resistance<\/a> bands, and even a weighted jump rope will mix up your routine. And as for cardio, Brad Bose, Robert’s trainer gives this advice,\u00a0\u201cOne of the weak points people make in their cardio training is limiting it to one piece of equipment, like a treadmill or an elliptical that they might have at their home. You need to challenge your heart with different levels, and you want to switch to something different.”<\/p>\n Circuit Training<\/strong> involves doing multiple exercises back-to-back, taking a short break and repeating the exercises, or \u201ccircuit<\/a>\u201d, again. The benefit to this type of exercise is that it keeps your heart rate elevated without completely wearing out one muscle group in a short period of time. Over the course of 3-5 circuits, your muscles will be plenty exercised and you will have completed a good amount of cardio. Actors such as Jennifer Garner, Zoe Kravitz has used this technique to prepare for their superhuman roles, Elektra and Angel Salvadore (X-Men), respectively.<\/p>\n The last but probably most important factor to getting your ideal body is dieting to meet your needs<\/strong>. Every time a celebrity talks about their body the question is brought up, \u201cWhat is your diet like?\u201d \u00a0It doesn\u2019t really matter what the answer is because chances are you\u2019ve already heard of it. Low carbs, no fat, low sugar, etc. The real truth behind cutting fat is that you must choose to eat wisely and stick to it. Ensure you’re getting the proper nutrients to support your workout habits and to achieve your fitness goals. Don\u2019t put yourself in Jennifer Lawrence\u2019s shoes when she said, \u201cIt was awful, I was hungry for five months.\u201d\u00a0 Just make good choices and don\u2019t get bored by eating the same meal over and over. When asked about his diet for Captain America, Chris Evans said, \u201cYou get to a point where you just can\u2019t even look at another piece of chicken.\u201d Keep the food part fun, if not, you are more likely to sway from great eating habits to bad.<\/p>\n Ryan Reynolds is Green Lantern<\/p><\/div>\n The point I\u2019m trying to make is that you don\u2019t have to play a superhero to look like one. You have to have a goal in mind, a training\/eating plan and the dedication to stick to it until you reach that goal. At times, you will get down and feel like you won\u2019t make it, but just think of the results and what it\u2019ll feel like to look back and see what you\u2019ve accomplished. After all, think of your favorite superheroes, where would the \u201cworld\u201d be if they gave up when it times got rough?<\/p>\n Information comprised from:<\/p>\n http:\/\/fitblog.wordpress.com\/2007\/01\/24\/jennifer-garner-workout-plan\/<\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/omg.yahoo.com\/news\/anne-hathaway-shares-catwoman-training-secrets-5-other-celebrity-workouts-for-upcoming-superhero-movies\/66336<\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.webmd.com\/fitness-exercise\/features\/iron-man-workout?page=3<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.fitzness.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/ryan_reynolds_green_lantern-300x186.jpg\" "\\"ryan_reynolds_green_lantern\\"")
