Jason Momoa: Conan Workout

A new Conan the Barbarian movie is here, and Jason Momoa will be playing the role that was instrumental in Arnold Schwarzenegger's rise to fame.

I'm interested to see how this one turns out.  I remember reading the comic book as a kid, and I believe the first time I ever saw Arnold was in advertisements for the first Conan movie. 

Jason has already played a warrior role in the HBO series Game of Thrones.  He has a different look than Arnold, but he's quite impressive in his own right.  Momoa is 6'4" and around 215 lb.  He has more of a lean "warrior" physique instead of the bodybuilder look.

Jason Momoa's Workout for Conan

Momoa apparently did six weeks' worth of of martial arts training and sword fighting to prepare for the movie (sounds kind of like the boot camp the 300 and Spartacus actors did).  In other words, most of us would not be able to replicate what he did without quitting our day job and hiring a bunch of specialized trainers. 

He also put on about 10 lb of muscle, which can be accomplished with the correct plan (even without steroids or quitting your day job.

Recommended Programs:

I'd recommend something like No-Nonsense Muscle Building if you are a beginner with the solitary goal of putting on muscle mass.  Muscle Gaining Secrets is also a good one.  You can read my comparison of the bodybuilding programs if you're interested.

More advanced trainees (those with some experience) may want to try Triple Threat Muscle.  This program is designed to develop functional muscle, endurance, and also burn fat.  It's been one of my best sellers.

Your Six Pack Quest is a great fat loss program for those who are ready to focus on fat loss and get "six pack abs."
