But one such old-school action star, mel gibson, who is in his sixties, had an "Unexpected encounter". A chance encounter changed his outlook on fitness and allowed him to lose a lot of weight.
At the height of his career, mel gibson was one of the world's most popular action stars, starring in the braveheart and lethal weapon series of films. Even in his most recent films he has returned to action. Nowadays, of course, the various stunts and physical demands of this film are even harder for mel gibson.
As the 64-year-old mel gibson ages, acting is not an issue for him; the biggest challenge is maintaining a reasonable weight. His metabolism has inevitably slowed down with age and like everyone else, his belly is starting to get bigger. However, a recent video circulating online shows how just one chance conversation can change his outlook on diet and fitness and give him the ability to lose weight.
Mel gibson is said to have been eating alone at a restaurant when he noticed samantha jackson, who was also eating alone. The two started talking and eventually gibson told samantha that he had been having trouble losing weight and was feeling lazy and tired all the time. This is exactly where samantha thought she could help him as she happens to be a fitness instructor in australia.
"Give me eight weeks and i can help him achieve his goals," Samantha said.
"I told him i would teach him how to eat properly and coach him on how to eat."
So a period of samantha and gibson's partnership began, and with it, miracles happened. In just eight weeks, the hollywood star lost about 14 kilograms and about 25 centimetres off her waistline. In the process, gibson felt much better in general.
Gibson says: "My clothes all fit well and my back doesn't hurt anymore. I'm starting to sleep better, which is really amazing. So i feel great!"
"I have more energy to work out. Just my overall health is better. I can live a lot longer."
The diet is based on a strict eating plan devised by samantha. In addition, the two keep in regular contact to ensure that gibson follows the plan accordingly. This is done to minimise the visceral adipose tissue in his body, which allows him to lose weight while staying healthy.
We are glad to see that mel gibson has found what works for him and the right trainer to get him in better shape while meeting his nutritional needs. The older you get, the harder these types of things are to do. However, mel gibson has shown the self-discipline he deserves with the help of his trainer, which has allowed him to get the results he wants.
It is not too late for anyone, at any time, to start working out. Self-discipline and fitness for life is what will allow you to enjoy life better.
