Because I arrived with long hair and a beard and stuff , and I was, like, filling up the hallway. I had actually, by that time, ... put on exactly 100 pounds from the day of finishing The Machinist to arriving in January in England. And it was not very healthy. It wasn't a healthy way to go. I could lift a lot of weights, but you ask me to run across the room, and I would have been exhausted. So when I got here, that's when I had to really start leaning out and doing a lot of running and all of that stuff." Cristian Bale. He went from 120 lbs for a role he had to play in the Machinist to 220 in 5 weeks. Therefore Gaining 100lbs. Cheers for coming. Regarding the steroid topic. I doubt it to a certain degree, simply because he is a vegan, and reading previous interviews and comments on him other people tend to think the same, although it is certainly a possibility. In American Psycho his end stats were 190lbs I think more or less, and Batman Begins is 200, although that is just speculation from other comments off other boards. |
| I read somewhere that he just ate and ate and by the time it came to filming he was like 175lbs, as opposed to 126lbs for that 'skinny' film, and by end of filming he was a solid 180lbs. |

Bale says he ate tonnes of protien and wasn;t overly impressed with the amounts, figuring it to be pretty unhealthy going between two extremes - he doesn;t plan on doing it again, and will be avoiding the gym for a wee while. I heard he put on 6 stone in 7 months, and that's just incrediably scary, and if true - could that rate for a world record? Is it possible without drugs??? Being a vege, I doubt very much if he did use drugs, but must have had suppliments beyond belief. |

okay i just watched the machinist.. i heard he lost a lot of weight for it but ..thats an understatement..he was a skeleton..i mean he looked kinda inhuman it was insane..my mind was blown..so i had to look up some interviews about it..because he did that right before batman.. and the interviews i read contadict what some of your were saying a little. basically the dude weighs 185 normally he starved himself down to 120..(which is like the weight of just your bones and organs anyway when your like 6ft lol) for preparation for batman he gained 100pounds! ..he weighed 220 then he honed it down to 190-195 of muscle.. okay heres the kicker..he did it in 5 months..thats all the time he had before filming begain.. does anyone else think thats insane!! and ive been trying to get rid of my love handles for years... :shock: i mean im sure its easier to do when you have experts helping you ..but what about the commitment for the machinist.. starving yourslelf like that and he had no experts telling him how to do that..because they wont..its destroying your body.. very few actors or people can do that..regardless of help..he probabaly took a few years off his life just from doing it. |

because all the most intelligent people join the army, prince harry for example. that kid really is the sharpest tool in the box

I couldnt give a shit who went to sandhurst, but somehow you think because you passed the entrance exam you're intelligent, you're having a laugh ![]() |

You couldn't give a "shit" who went to Sandhurst, Yep, well you should because dumb shits like Winston Churchill is one of the Nation's hero's or didn't you know that? And another thing, I'm not your bro "thank God, because then I'd be utterly retarded" Now before you dig a bigger hole for youself, go play hide and go fuck yourself. thanks for coming. ![]() |
, I did International Economics in my first year and then transferred to do International Business Management for my degree as I doubted my mathematical ability to achieve a reasonable score in Quatitative aspects of Economics, Why do you think I was offered a Job at PriceWaterHouseCoopers, I mean , common all Geography is about is colouring in maps isn't it? No way I would have been offered a job there then......omg your a funny confused guy.

I don't know what he weighed in Batman but I cant imagine it was over 190lbs or so, still an amazing transformation......probably not a very healthy one. |

He must have eaten everything but the kitchen sink, I just wonder what his routine was like. After reading a few articles on the web I see he got a Ex-Marine to get him into shape. I'm surprised the marine managed to get Christian Bale in such great form, because according to Stu military men are a little thick and obviously wouldn't be able to comprehend Anatomy, Nutrition or other "complicated" aspects of building a successful body ...STU ![]() |

Come on guys he is no superman and there is no superman diet that is going to put 60lbs on a guy in 5 weeks or 5 months for that matter. This geek probably put on 20lbs of muscle and 10 lbs of fat over a years time. And to do it he had a personal trainer and was on juice. He is doing the same stuff we all are. There is no secret taining method or diet - you either do juice or you don't
