Jake Gyllenhaal and Conor McGregor in UFC for "Road House"

Jake Gyllenhaal has taken his physical preparation to a new level for his role in the upcoming “Road House” movie. With an intensive training routine and a carefully planned diet, Gyllenhaal has transformed himself to play the UFC-inspired character Elwood Dalton, a feat that has captured attention far beyond the boundaries of Hollywood.

To achieve an authentic UFC fighter’s physique, Gyllenhaal dedicated himself to a demanding training regimen. Under the guidance of his trainer Jason Walsh, he spent countless hours in the gym, focusing on a mix of cardio, strength, and martial arts training. Central to this process was the VersaClimber, a machine that simulates climbing and engages the whole body.

In addition to physical training, Gyllenhaal’s diet played a crucial role. According to interviews, he ate up to seven meals a day, focusing on carbohydrates in the morning and protein in the afternoon and evening to maximize muscle growth and recovery. His diet consisted of a variety of nutritious foods like chicken, fish, eggs, and an array of vegetables and fruits.
