More About Ian Somerhalder:

As mentioned, the exercises Somerhalder performs regularly include burpees, push-ups, pull-ups, body planks, and squats. These exercises are taxing on the body, but they are what Somerhalder credits for his chiseled physique.

Somerhalder is also big on playing sports, which is a fun way to exercise. He often plays baseball and football, and also enjoys horse-back riding. Other favorite pastimes include cycling, archery, and riflery. By combining his regular gym exercises with out-of-gym sports and activities, Somerhalder stays fit all year round.

Ian Somerhalder’s Diet Plan

As for Somerhalder’s diet, he strictly avoids junk food and alcohol. His diet will often change to adjust to his current workouts and augment them.

For example, if he is burning more calories, he may increase the amount of food he eats to compensate. The foods that he eats are nutrient-rich and he enjoys fresh fruits, vegetables, and nuts to keep him energized.

To accompany his workouts, Somerhalder drinks green tea regularly, which improves his endurance and enhances his workout sessions.

Health is a big deal to Somerhalder. In an interview with WebMD, he opened up  on the subject, saying, “My health’s wildly important to me. I wouldn’t have the stamina and energy for 80-hour work weeks without good health.”

His advice when it comes to health?

“You’ve got to be really committed to it. You’ve got to plan for it. And you’ve got to make it a habit. You’re going to get a lot more out of your brain and your body if you take care of both. Keep it full of really positive stuff and that’s what you manifest in your life. I know it sounds clichéd, but it’s true, man, and I’m glad I learned that.”

As you can see, Ian Somerhalder is greatly committed to living a healthy lifestyle and, although he didn’t land the role of Christian Grey in 50 Shades of Grey as was rumored before the sequel was filmed, we’re sure some future roles will show off his toned body.
