Sylvester Stallone put himself through an intense diet and exercise routine ahead of filming “Rocky III” in the 1980s.
Stallone recalled what he ate and drank to keep his body fat down to 2.8% as he prepared to portray Rocky Balboa fighting James “Clubber” Lang, played by Mr. T.
“My entire breakfast would be maybe two [small] oatmeal cookies made with brown rice and 10 cups of coffee because I wanted to keep my body fat down to 2.8 percent,” Stallone told The Wall Street Journal.
