James McAvoy’s dramatic evolution into The Beast is one of Hollywood’s most shocking physique transformations. To prepare for his role in Split and Glass, McAvoy packed on over 7kg of muscle mass in nearly four months.
To adapt McAvoy’s diet plan, start by eating three to four eggs in the morning. Choose a fist-sized portion of protein for snacks snack. Lunch and dinner should include a fist-sized portion of protein, another fist-sized portion of fat, and two-fist sized portions of vegetables.
“This diet is approachable for everyone because you get to pick your protein, your carbohydrates, and your fat,” Lygdback says. “Pick and choose and have a go.”
I’ve been doing something similar to this. I encountered an issue with peanut butter. Too many calories. I’m going to try a powered peanut butter that’s less than half the calories.
It appears McAvoy trained his traps way more than he trained his abs. Maybe he wasn’t going for a six pack, which is mostly diet.
It’s a very slow process where you lose muscle when you stop lifting. It’s also a very slow process where you gain fat when you stop exercising. I’ve heard a bodybuilder say your physique is 70% diet.
I’ve been eating less than 1500 calories a day and exercising 15km 5 days a week for months and after the initial weight loss of 5 kg in 3 weeks, I am stuck at the same weight.
I lost a further 2kg in 8 weeks, but now i stick firm, well hovering at 76 and 77kg for 6 weeks
