Question by : What was Christian Bale's diet plan from Machinist to Batman Begins?
Christian Bale lost an enormous amount of weight for the psychological film "The Machinist" weighing at only 120 pounds. He was then casted to play Batman in Nolan's Batman Begins. Bale had to gain all that muscular weight back in 6 months. Not only did he succeed but he gained a little bit TOO much from what the director planned.
So does anyone know what his diet/excercise plan could have been like?
Best answer:
Answer by Mark Owen
The short answer is intensive bodyweight workouts and intensive resistance/weight training workouts. Not only is Bale's character extremely muscular, he is also well toned, with low body fat levels. This takes an immense amount of work to achieve. Also keep in mind the resources celebrities like him have in reach.
You should also watch American Psycho, in my opinion this is when Bale hits his fitness peak and it is also an amazing film.
