Supposedly it took them boys in the movie 300, 6 weeks to get into that shape :P Is that even possible?
 
Depends what level they were at beforehand, and whether they took steroids or not.
 
the movie does look pretty cool i wont lie.
 
Edward Norton in AmericanHistory X is a good example of actors on steroids for a movie.
 
When an actor needs to get in shape, they also have access to an almost dedicated personal trainer and a dietitian. They also have all the time they need, every day, to get in shape.

With those things, and no drugs, most of us could make quite a transformation in just 6-8 weeks.

Then if you add a carefully controlled cycle to that, the change would be down-right amazing.
 
i got all that!! except the dedicated personal trainer ha any volunteers? j/k
 
The movie will be awesome as was Sin City but I wouldn't put too much thought into how they got into shape - I think computers played a bigger role in it than training. ;)

Have you seen the pics and the vids? They don't make people muscular with PCs. That would cost too much and it wouldn't be realistic.

agreed. also ryan reynolds in blade trinity. all these guys go from ~165lbs to ~200 in a matter of 4 or 6 months, and they do it while being lean as hell at the end of the six months.

this topic has been discussed over and over again on these forums and if your really that envious of what the "stars" look like then why dont you do some digging and copy they're routine exactly and then talk to some guys about getting the proper drugs in order. otherwise its gettin kind of tired talking about how "huge" these guys are. i bet if you met these guys in real life youd be like..."hey hes not even that big", its all smoke and mirrors in hollywood.

this was directed at noone personally, just the general populus

No, not just computers - but FX in general. Let me give you two examples. Hellboy and Superman returns. Ron Perlman who played Hellboy is nothing like the kind of shape they had him at in the film yet with a body cast and CGI they made him huge.

As for Superman Returns - there are whole sections of that film where everything bar Superman's face is CGI (particularly around the flying). I'm not saying Brandon Routh didnt get into shape for that film but its a good example of how possible it is to create the human form within a computer.

I've looked closely at the trailers for 300 and seen them on the big screen and I have to say that some of those guys look 'enhanced' to me. If someone can show me 'on set' photo's of the cast during the making of the film showing them in that shape I'll be straight in here with an apology. just my opinion. :thinking:
 
A lot of the time it isn't just a massive increase in muscle mass but in fact a huge drop in bf that give the illusion of them packing on slabs of muscle.

They also concentrate on specific muscle groups such as shoulders and arms to again give the illusion of being bigger so their not always in proportion.

Superman and Hellman don't have to look realistic and they don't have halfnaked human bodies. Superman wears a suit and hellboy is not human. But you're right that they make things look a lot better. Every set has very specific lightning. Leonardo DiCaprio in Blood Diamond is a good example. He's skinny as hell, but they tried to make him look a lot bulkier (especially in the prison scene).

In 300 however, nothing more than lightning was used I think. Look at that training video. Some of these guys are really buff.

Thank you.

Why the fuck would anyone think these guys were on something? I suppose they could, but they dont look un-natural.

Edward Norton looked in shape for American History X, not huge. It is a dramatic change from his earlier roles, but you cant really tell. A huge person is noticeable through their clothes, not an in shape person. Whos to say he didnt start training for that role during the filming of People vs. Larry Flint?

I am waiting for someone to bring up Christian Bale now...
 
Nah I'm pretty sure they didnt use steroids! That looks like a very natural build.. like someone stated above if you had the time and dedication 6 weeks is nothing

Its kind of pathetic to even mention that sort of shit on a bodybuilding site.

Guess what, actors ain't bodybuilders. They want to get in shape for a movie and they want to do it fast. Most of them use steroids.

It's not about how huge they are. It's about the gains they experienced in 4 weeks time.
 
The guys are big, but they dont look that huge to me

I'm not too sure of the special effects. The actors are real people, but they made them look like they were computer generated, making the whole movie looks like one big video game. At least thats they way it seemed to me by the trailer. :shrug:

Anyone can be a bodybuilder. Its a life for some and a hobby for others.

How many actors do you know to confirm these alegations?
Are you eliminating the chance that they got these gains naturally?
Where did you get "4 weeks" time?
Do you know these actors personally to know they didnt already have some size before this allegid 4 week program?
