What Type of Workout Would James Bond Do? The new James Bond, Daniel Craig has quickly become a fitness icon. In Casino Royale, Craig really showed us what a nice toned physique looks like. In 1999, Brad Pitt attained what could be considered the ideal physique...in the movie Fight Club. While both of these guys are in great shape, I would say that Daniel has a bit more muscle. If I was to teach someone how to get a body like Brad Pitt, I would recommend someone do quite a bit more cardio than lifting...maybe cardio for 75% of their time in the gym. To get in James Bond Shape, one would need to do less cardio...maybe for only half of their time in the gym. How I Would Eat for a James Bond Workout James Bond is packing a bit more muscle than Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt's Character)did in Fight Club. When Daniel Craig was interviewed about his diet before Casino Royale, he said he was on a high protein diet. Brad Pitt was on the Zone Diet, before Fight Club. The Zone Diet recommends that 30% of daily caloric intake comes from protein. For the James Bond workout, I would bump that number up to 50% and cut back on carbs and fat a bit. To Be Like Bond, You Need to Eat More Calories Than Tyler Durden Brad Pitt was absolutely ripped in Fight Club. Judging by the sharpness of his abs and facial definition, I would say that he was around a body fat percentage of 4-6%. Daniel Craig was most likely around 8% body fat for Casino Royale. James Bond has it easy compared to Tyler Durden! Daniel got to eat quite a bit more than Brad could in preparing for his movie role. While Daniel most likely ate the standard 6 meals a day, I doubt that Brad got away with more than 3-4 super low calorie meals. James Bond had a more sustainable and realistic body in Casino Royale. Traditional Cardio for a James Bond Workout In order to get down below 6% body fat like Tyler Durden, you need to really concentrate on High Intensity Interval Training to naturally increase your HGH levels. In addition to that, you need to perform moderate cardio for longer periods of time. For the James Bond Workout, you probably will be able to skip the High Intensity Interval Cardio. To maintain 8% body fat, you can get away with sticking to the traditional moderate intensity cardio for 30-45 minutes or so after each workout. In the James Bond Workout, you will only need to add High Intensity Cardio, if you reach a sticking point in burning body fat.
