snoop1130 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Russell Crowe is unrecognisable as he sports a beard and ponytail during a tennis session in Sydney By NICOLE DOUGLAS My, how you've changed! Russell Crowe (pictured in Sydney on Thursday evening) looks very different these days compared to when he first rose to fame in Hollywood Russell Crowe shot to fame playing Maximus in the 2000 epic Gladiator. But two decades later, the 56-year-old actor has embraced a far more relaxed look, and is now hardly recognisable compared to his glory days. The Hollywood legend sported a scruffy beard and wore his greying hair in a slicked-back ponytail while playing a game of tennis in Sydney with his close friend Britney Theriot, 30, on Thursday evening. Gone was the chiselled six pack he was once known for, as Russell sported a loose-fitting polo shirt, black-and-white Adidas pants and a pair of matching sneakers.

So you'll have to take my word that I'm doing a lot better than Crowe is at the moment. Ran intervals yesterday; lower body resistance work today, upper body tomorrow. Stay low carb, only natural foods, mostly avoid alcohol, etc. etc. So: lower normal BMI, low body fat, good numbers across the board, no meds needed, move easily, and feel great. Your turn. ????

TooBigToFit Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Russel's pretty much normal at his age for his body type these days. He was always big and never going to be a boney skinny person. Hollywood is full of people born naturally thin or fit looking for work. Some of them get jobs, some get jobs after offering their bodies to Hollywood's powerful but most are just used and abused. What you see in movies is not the real world or real people. You see the chosen for whatever they are chosen. In reality, some people are skinny or thin and really don't have to do a darn thing to stay that way. As always it's okay to shame fat people but dare you tell a thin person to get off his <deleted> and eat more. Dare you to show disgust to their existence. But it's okay to do it to fat people. Even Hitler wasn't as bad as some of you when it comes to showing disgust against fat people. Edited October 13, 2020 by TooBigToFit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality, some people are skinny or thin and really don't have to do a darn thing to stay that way. If that's normal for his age and body type, then it's not much of a recommendation. Nobody suggested he should be a "boney skinny person"--red herring argument. Nobody is born fit looking for work. Bit early, eh. Some are born thin, true, or fat, but nonetheless aren't condemned to stay so forever. True, some people remain thin to outward appearances no matter what they eat, as metabolisms are different, but I think not most (see your "normal" above); and not Russell Crowe. He has in the past been in excellent shape, however, so it appears he's one those who do have say, though he no longer chooses to exercise that option.

The real trick is moderation. I am 180cm and 77kg. Don't need to shed another 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
