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

On a regular basis Daniel Craig opts for a more sustainable and intuitive approach to dieting.

And then, like other celebs we’ve seen, he cuts back a bit when prepping for roles.

On a typical day of eating his diet is said to look something like this:

Breakfast: 2 Poached Eggs and 2 pieces of Toast
Snack: Protein Shake -or- fruits and Nuts
Lunch: Meat or Fish with small amount of Brown Rice -or- Baked Potato
Snack: Protein Shake -or- Yogurt with some Nuts
Dinner: Meat -or- Fish with some type of Leafy Green Vegetables like Salad, Spinach, or Broccoli.

Sources also tell us that when it comes time for roles Craig will start to cut back on carbs a bit as a way to cut the calories and in turn: the fat.

Oh, and the more obvious is the fact that he begins to eliminate all junk food from his diet, although he does mention that he still sometimes splurges on alcohol (but accounted for).

We see a lot of celebs opt for a sustainable approach like this.

That’s why our Academy Nutrition Classes (Monks, Minimalists, SuperHumans, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Greek Gods, Samurais) revolve around helping you find the specific diet that is right FOR YOU.

Of course, there are a lot of reasons to HAVE the strict guidelines.

We’ve seen a lot of celebs opt for specific restrictions.

For example: Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Benedict Cumberbatch and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting(something I use daily as well), Mustafa Shakir and Madelaine Petsch are vegans, Brandon Routh and Frank Grillo opt for paleo, and tons of others utilize their own variations as well.

And, that’s just to name a few celebs from each, by the way.

You can check out our Nutrition Pillars for more information and articles on all of the above and more.

Curious where over a hundred celebs fall in their dietary choices ranging from High Protein and Keto to Vegetarian, Vegan and Intermittent Fasting? Want exclusive celeb meal plans? Check this out.

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.
