Okay, first off, who the heck doesn’t want to train like 007?
The answer is no one. Everyone wants to train like James Bond…
Not to mention he’s a badass fighter like our newest coach in the Superhero Academy: Coach Derek Mellino.
Which is why we have our Fighter Path (Deadpool / Harley Quinn), which he created for us!
And, we’ll go into full depth for his stats, but this man is pushing 50 and still killing it! I love seeing the 40-50+ club celebs, because it just further proves that everyone can do this. They bust their ass for their body, and you can too!
Oh, and a lot of the time they’re on a time limit to get it done – and you’re not! (I think…)
Daniel Craig Stats:
Height: 5’10
Weight: (approximate) 175 lbs.
Age: 48 yrs. old
Okay, so we’ve also seen a bunch of other 40+ celebs, which I’ll do a bit of a height and physique order on the few I list (Mark Wahlberg, Paul Rudd, Ben Affleck, Dwayne Johnson, and so many more!), and Daniel Craig’s James Bond physique is right up there with the most badass.
And, he’s right in there with the average height, like Paul Rudd, Matt Damon, and others!
So, for you guys that aren’t monster like Dwayne Johnson, Jason Momoa and Batista … or Gimlis like myself, Zac Efron and Kit Harington … you have a friend in this routine!
Daniel Craig Diet and Nutrition
Similar to other physiques like his, you’re going to want to utilize multiple Nutrition Pillars.
Zac Efron for example utilizes low carb diet (similar to a Paleo diet) while also incorporating carb reloads.
You could also do this using intermittent fasting, like Hugh Jackman, to make it that much better! Oh, and he was still eating 5000+ calories a day too!
But, either way, you’re going to want to monitor your carbs intake in some form, and eat clean (obviously, right?)…
So, the moral of the story is, nutrition is huge (as we know), and you’ll need to take a look at the pillars to figure out exactly what is right for you. Sustainability is key.
Daniel Craig Workout Routine Research
Alright, so there is Daniel Craig Workout Routine’s all over the internet.
People envy this man, what can I say?
What I found that I really liked are power circuits and a fun styled routine from Men’s Health. So, what I’ll be doing is utilizing that routine, and mixing it with the ton of other routines that I found. Taking a bit of each and making it freakin’ awesome.
Another interesting thing that I stumbled upon in GQ was from Craig’s trainer. He states:
The workouts were a blend of power lifting, with a lot of compound exercises thrown in. This allows you to work out extremely hard with heavy weights, and because it’s so intense the heart rate is elevated. Therefore, you are working not only on the development of nice lean muscle tissue, but you’re also getting a bit of cardio as well, and keeping your body fat down.
Yes. We’ll also be using that. Thank you very much Simon Waterson.
Something else Waterson tells us that I think you guys might enjoy knowing is:
No stone was left unturned in terms of developing speed, strength, stamina and a sharp, focused mind. I’m a stickler when it comes to attention to detail, so posture, definition, movement and confidence were at the top of the list. I also wanted functioning muscle – there’s no point in having great muscles if they can’t be used in a beneficial way like speeding across the ground, climbing, jumping and fighting
I like it. Sounds like some superhero badassery.
