LEAN LEBRON JAMES WORKS OUT IN BEATS AD

We break down the workout in this new Beats by Dre spot while remaining in awe of the Cavalier's fat loss.

lebron james beats

Ever wonder what LeBron was doing to turn into a lean mean scoring machine after his hometown return to the Cleveland Cavaliers this off-season? Well the latest Beats by Dr. Dre ad, which features the basketball star, might shed a little light into the gym work he put in to get in shape.
Lebron told Sports Illustrated last month of the dietary changes he made to drop the pounds over the summer. "I had no sugars, no dairy, I had no carbs," said the 29-year-old. "All I ate was meat, fish, veggies and fruit. That's it. For 67 straight days." With this new ad from Beats, we get a glimpse of some of the training he was doing during this period.
The catalog of exercises in this video is, to the best of our knowledge (hat tip to M&F Deputy Editor Matt Tuthill), as follows:
1:16 Clean and Press
1:18 Barbell Rollout
1:26 Kettlebell Side Lunge
1:30 Cable Core Rotation with Punch
1:36 Cable Wood Chop
1:42 DB Bench Press
1:51 Hanging Knee Raise
1:52 (Repeat of the clean and press)

Steve Weatherford is the NFL's Fittest Man

Steve Weatherford doesn’t have to look like this. To be a punter in the NFL, you don’t need to be lean and muscular or have six-pack abs. You don’t need 18-inch arms, striated delts, separated pecs, or

MANNY PACQUIAO'S BOXING CHAMP WORKOUT

World famous boxing trainer Freddie Roach gives us the routine that's preparing Manny Pacquiao to go toe-to-toe for the fourth time against Juan Manuel Marquez.

BY 

Manny Pacquiao
Prior to his career as one of the elite boxing trainers of his time—working with fighters Manny Pacquiao and Oscar De La Hoya—Freddie Roach was a tough professional fighter with over 50 bouts during his eight-year career. With a final record of 40-13, Roach never held a major title but he also was only knocked out three times.
“I tried to train hard for all my fights, especially the big fights, like with Camacho,” Roach says of his meeting with the late Hector “Macho” Camacho. “I sparred a lot of fast guys with good speed to prepare for him, but when the fight came they weren’t fast enough. He was the most talented fighter that I ever faced, reminds me of Manny Pacquiao.”
Even later in his career, Roach was known for being able to withstand a lot of combat in the ring. However, his solid conditioning couldn’t prevent the onset of Parkinson’s disease. Today, Roach says the exercise he gets training fighters and all the coordination work he does coaching boxers helps fight the disease’s progression.
“In my day, we didn’t have all these different strength and condition coaches. They’re the ones that are bringing steroids into
