A Review of David Beckham’s Workout and Diet Plan…by Brad Campbell
As one of the most famous and wealthiest soccer players in the entire world, David Beckham seems to have it made in the shade. As if that wasn’t enough, Beckham has cover model looks, a hot wife (gee that’s a shocker) and lots of style.
Plus, he pulls off the tattooed lean body look pretty damn well…which is the inspiration behind this celebrity workout review.
Here’s David Beckham’s height and weight: David stands 5’11” (1.80 m) tall and weighs 158 lbs (71.8 kg) <— source: soccer.espn.go.com
By the way, because I’m in the USA and we’re crazy like that, we call ‘your’ football soccer and our football…well, football. No disrespect. Back to David Beckham and the workout and diet plan he uses to look so lean and prepare his body to compete at such a high level.
Beckham’s ripped physique actually looks a lot like Bruce Lee, only with a little less muscle. Some people mock him, saying he’s too small. I strongly disagree.
Guys, if you’re not feeling David Beckham’s lean and tone look, I’ve got news for you. Chicks dig David Beckham.
Girls are freakin’ obsessed with this guy, so pay attention and stop thinking that big, bulky muscles are where it’s at.
David Beckham’s super toned and athletic physique is the result of a stellar conditioning, weight training and flexibility routine, and of course, performance nutrition.
David Beckham’s diet is designed to provide him with the energy and nutrients he needs for maximum performance on the soccer field. This includes complex carbs to fuel his practices and games; lots of green, leafy vegetables and fresh fruit to provide sufficient vitamins, minerals and antioxidants; adequate lean protein sources to promote muscle repair; and healthy fats for optimal functioning.
For an example of how to eat to sculpt your own David Beckham body, you’ll want to read this post: UFC Diet Plan.
If you follow the standard “David Beckham diet” (that most celebs use to look lean and ripped for big roles), there are endless workouts and training routines that will produce results.
Like I said when I reviewed Cam Gigandet’s workout, even the most basic and generic of workout programs can lead to a ripped body as long as the perfect diet is followed.
Having said that, what exactly does David Beckham do for his workouts? Beckham used to do some hardcore weight training. He bulked up quite a bit and this slowed him down and hindered his athleticism, so he had to adjust his strength training routine.
Now he still lifts weights, but uses total body workouts in place of a split routine. Beckham focuses on compound movements that will improve his soccer game. This is the best approach for shedding body fat and getting lean as well.
David also does plyometric drills to enhance his quickness. Again, this is a killer way to boost your fat-burning, even if you’re not a multi-million dollar soccer stud who spends your off days modeling in your underwear.
Lastly, David Beckham does plenty of cardiovascular training. After all, his “job” requires it.
Next to MMA fighters, soccer players have to be right up there when you’re talking about the best conditioned athletes in the world.
Most of Beckham’s cardio workouts come in the form of practice. This cardio work is therefore highly specific to improving his efficiency as a soccer player and includes interval training, lots of sprinting, bounding and body weight circuits.
Once again, the perfect recipe for building a lean and tone body like David Beckham.
Beckham has been quoted as saying: “You have to find that extra 10-percent.” “What else can you do that no one else is willing to do…to make yourself better?”
That’s damn good advice, Mr. Beckham. Although he was referring to what makes him such a super star soccer (football…there, you happy?) player, the same mentality can and should be applied to meeting your fitness goals.
The average person just isn’t willing to put in the extra effort that is required to take your body from average to jaw-dropping.
That’s why the obese rate is what it is…and will probably continue to climb. Our society’s getting more and more lazy and it seems like it’s getting harder and harder to keep off unwanted body fat.
Learn from David Beckham. Get your mindset straightened out first, then follow a lean body diet plan and put the finishing touches on your own personal masterpiece by attacking a well-rounded workout program.
Your Coach,
Brad Campbell
