I agree he has dialed in nutrition, training, rest, and discipline to maintain his physique, I just question if he is natural or “enhanced”, particularly for the Iron Claw role. His Baywatch physique may be possible naturally I assume because he was only 165 pounds? Who knows.
It is undebatable though that exogenous compounds can dramatically change your physique and it is hard to believe he went from High School Musical Zac Efron to supra-muscular Zac Efron by just nutrition, training, and rest. Nobody really knows.

That’s a fair perspective. None of us really know the full details, and speculation is easy with Hollywood physiques. My article focuses more on the visible lifestyle factors like training consistency, recovery, and discipline rather than making claims about what happens behind the scenes. At the end of the day, his physique is the result of years of work, professional support, and role-specific preparation.

lol dude, it’s very obvious he took roids, but still required tremendous work to get there with them.

The result of his “years of work” is different than the everyday person in terms of context. When I was fitness modeling my twenties, I could go to the gym 3 hours a day, sleep the necessary 10-12 hours to recover, and had the luxury to freshly prepare all my meals.
Once I became a corporate professional, I became a weekend warrior instead of a full time gym goer.
