Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner flexes his bulging biceps before doing some Q&A for the August 2009 issue of Interview Magazine. Here are some highlights from the 17-year-old actor:
Do you feel like you’re walking around in a different body [since gaining 30 pounds of muscle for New Moon]? I don’t at all. I haven’t noticed much of a change. I grew out of a lot of my clothes, though. I went from a men’s small to a men’s large.
What was your training regimen? I was in the gym five days a week, two hours a day. At one point, I was going seven days straight. I had put on a lot of weight, and then I started losing it drastically, so I was worried. It turned out I was overworking myself. My trainer told me that I couldn’t break a sweat, because I was burning more calories than I was putting on. The hardest thing for me was the eating. At one point I had to shove as much food in my body as possible to pack on calories. My trainer wanted me to do six meals a day and not go two hours without eating. If I would cheat on eating one day, I could tell—I’d drop a few pounds.
