TOP MALE BODIES
- Taylor Lautner
This “Twilight” stud packed on 30 pounds of muscle for his role in the film. He did so by participating in exercises that created tension by using special equipment such as rubber bands. His killer body is probably the cause of all those on Team Jacob.
- Ryan Gosling
Gosling spends a lot of time in the gym to look the way he does. His secret is doing about 5-12 reps to build up all muscles including everything from chest to abs, to shoulders, back and more.
- Jake Gyllenhaal
Gyllenhall followed a strict diet and exercise plan to sculpt his prefect body. Starting your mornings with an hour and half of cardio while wearing a 20 lb flack jacket and then participating in more exercise throughout the day will be sure to do the trick for you too! Read more about Jake’s workouts here.
- Bradley Cooper
The secret to Coopers body is using a 3-2-1- routine. What this routine consists of is 3 cardio circuits, 2 strength-training circuits, and 1 core circuit. The total number of time each circuit is done for is 10 minutes! Follow this routine to put your body on the A-Team!
- George Clooney
Clooney may be 50, but his body keeps him looking young! Bikram Yoga is one of Clooney’s favorite types of exercise and according to one of his yoga teachers, Clooney is a very disciplined student!
- Zac Efron
Efron transformed himself from skinny to buff and you can do the same! Efron believes in the “Big 3” which consists of dead lifts, squats, and bench presses. Make sure you do about 6-10 reps for each of these exercises.
- Hugh Jackman
This Wolverine is shredded from head to toe. Jackman’s secret is The Shrink Wrap Effect which leads to that rock hard muscle that Jackman so very well sports. Learn more about Hugh’s workouts here!
- Matthew MCConaughey
If anybody can keep his shirt off, it is definitely Matthew McConaughey! Running, push-ups, running, pull-ups and running some more keep MCConaughey ripped and in shape!
- David Beckham
This soccer stud has a body that can’t be beat. Whether on the field, or posing in front of the camera, Beckham’s always looking steamy. He not only exercise often, but also follows a well-rounded healthy lifestyle! Chasing four kids has got to help too, right?
- Tim Tebow
Between training for football in-season and pushing cars in the off-season, Tebow always remains in ideal shirtless shape. Switch up your cardio routines, engage in insane strength training strategies and enjoy the anxiety of high-pressure fourth quarters to earn an incredible body like this bucking BroncoGator!
- Colin Egglesfield
The gorgeous star of “Something Borrowed” can do no wrong in the shirtless category. He made women worldwide swoon this past Spring starring opposite Kate Hudson and Ginnifer Goodwin with his ridiculously perfect smile and his OMG body. Colin is a long-time friend of Fitzness.com and we’re thrilled to see the rest of the world love him like we do. He runs marathons, lifts like a machine and eats like … his job depends on it.

- Anthony Field – The Blue Wiggle
Anthony’s another one of our favorite celebrity friends. This pop-star to preschoolers as one of The Wiggles, has a body only adults can appreciate. Fitz has had the pleasure of working with Anthony since the beginning of his mission to become fit and has enjoyed the shock and awe of seeing his body that grows fitter year after year as they shoot fitness segments together. Since he performs in two highly cardio shows a day which include intense acrobatics, it’s not a surprise that he’s earned a spot on our list. Just like his fellow Aussie, Hugh Jackman, Anthony Field makes the 40’s look amazing! View Anthony’s Fitzness segments by clicking here. You. Will. Be. Blown. Away!

Beckham is so pigeon-chested it’s embarassing. You can just tell a strong wind would push him over. To have that little body fat and still not have a clearly defined 6 pack, shows he does very little work in the gym – have no idea how he got on this list…..a long with the quite frankly laughable picture of Clooney.
