The Hollywood megastar is on a run with his blockbuster movies like Ant-Man and Creed 3. For his latest movie, ‘ Magazine Dreams’, the actor has taken another challenge of playing a bodybuilder’s character. And to justify the role, Majors is giving his best shot. In an interview with Variety at Sundance Film Festival on January 21, Majors opened up about the insane amount of food he was eating. 

The Ant-man star revealed that he eats six times daily to achieve the size of a professional bodybuilder. “I ate 6100 calories”, he said in the interview. The major composition of his diet consists of proteins. To gain a larger size, he is supposed to take the protein equal to his body weight. “Lots of chicken, lots of Elk and you can eat carbs. Rice cakes are a dessert for me.”, the star revealed his diet composition. However, it’s not the first time Majors opened up about his struggles during workouts.
