Be the desire of all women with the Brad Pitt workout
on Tuesday, October 13, 2009 in Workouts & Exercises
If you have seen the movie Fight Club, you would no doubt have noticed the incredible physique of Brad Pitt. The movie was filmed in 1999 and still 10 years on guys are saying “I wanna look like HIM!”. So I have made it my mission to find the exact muscle shredding program that Brad Pitt used to get into shape for this film.Here it is….
THE BRAD PITT FIGHT CLUB WORKOUT
Monday – Chest
3 – 75 Push ups
3 – Bench press 165,195,225 (25, 15, 8 reps)
3 – Nautilus press 80,100,130
3 – Incline press 80,100,130
3 – Pec deck machine 60,70,80Tuesday – Back
3 – 25 Pull ups
3 – Seated rows 75,80,85
3 – Lat pull downs 135,150,165
3 – T bar rows 80,95,110Wednesday – Shoulders
3 – Arnold press 55,55,55
3 – Laterals 30,30,30
3 – Front raises 25,25,25Thursday – Biceps & Triceps
3 – Preacher curl machine 60,80,95
3 – EZ curls cable 50,65,80
3 – Hammer curls 30,45,55
3 – Push downs 70,85,100Friday
Treadmill 60 minutes 80-90% MHRSaturday
Treadmill 60 minutes 80-90% MHRSunday
Rest DayReps Range From 15-25 reps on all exercises and weight is in lbs
The key things to note is that he trained one muscle group each day and then gave him self the rest of the week to recover. He performed 3 sets, taking approximately 60 seconds to rest between each set.  Also, he used a weight that was challenging enough to complete 15 reps, but be fatigued on the last rep.
It also often helps if you have the millions of dollars required to hire a full time personal trainer and dietitian. However, if your not yet a Hollywood celebrity, but would like the same results, check out this LATEST FEATURE that has just been released on WorkoutBOX.
I wont say too much about it, I’ll leave that bit up to the equally ripped Travis Steffen, he’s the Head Trainer here at WorkoutBOX, he’ll explain how you can get the Brad Pitt body on a budget!

Would be interesting to find out the same type of program but with pure bodyweight/crossfit -training methods, no equipement required etc.?

I haven’t seen the movie, but in that picture, he just looks scrawny. I’d think a lot of it would be his body fat percentage, and only a little in his muscle. Maybe that’s where the 60 minutes at 80-90% MHR comes in, haha.

I would have to agree, he does look scrawny in that picture. I did see the movie and it was good. Brad did look good. however, more body mass would have been good. not sure i agree with this training program.

I found your site on google. I couldn’t agree more. Weight loss isn’t rocket science like some people would have you believe. It just takes some dedication and discipline. I will definately be back to check your site.

Hi,Ran across this blog last Thursday and I have to admit that I have recieved some amazing points as of now.I was hoping if you could put some more info about the right way to bulk up.

I don't think the number of push ups and number of pull ups are right. 3 sets of 25 pull ups and 3 sets of 75 push ups? I've been using a similar work out plan for a year and have gotten results similar to Brad Pitt, but I only did 3 sets of 25-35 push ups and 3 sets of 5-10 pull ups. 3 sets of 25 pull ups is a bit ridiculous for 99% of the population, lol.
The weights seem a little off too, I know that he did enough to where he was fatigued after each set. Only 85 for seated rows, but up to 165 for Lat Pulldowns? Only 95 on a Preacher Curl machine, yet 55 with hammer curls? Only 80 on the pec deck, but up to 130 on the incline press? All the "easier" workouts there have much less weight so I just don't get it. I do agree that it's the correct routine though if you use a proper high protein diet, especially for the cardio. The amount of body fat he had was actually so low it was actually unhealthy, which is why he was able to rock the crazy abs.
Just my 2 cents.
