In the film Troy, Brad Pitt played the role of Achilles, a mythical warrior from Greek history. Achilles according to Greek mythology was the handsomest of all the heroes assembled against Troy.

According to the legend, Achilles was supposed to be invincible, except for his heel.

Well perhaps legend is right Brad Pitt was the most handsome man on the screen in the movie Troy. Nevertheless, his weakness is not in his heel but in other things.

Certainly making money is not one of them… he was paid $17.5 million to be in this movie.

The Brad Pitt workout started seven months before filming for the movie Troy began. Pitt admitted to giving up cigarette smoking during this intensive training.

According to his personal trainer, Brad Pitt used compound movements for the majority of his weight-training program. He also did stretching and yoga to prevent any muscle injury.

The interesting thing about the Brad Pitt physique in both of his movies – Fight Club and Troy – is that his physique is not what some people would call… body builder big.

Rather what he portrays on the screen is a muscular – yet ripped to the bone Brad Pitt body. Judging the response by women in the audience, this is what they are most attracted. Therefore, if you are trying to get Arnold Schwarzenegger big – you probably will not score any points with the women.
