So you want to look like Jake Gyllenhall in this summer’s big movie The Prince Of Persia?
I can help you do that…
In this article I’ll lay out for you the exact workout Jake used to get ripped for The Prince Of Persia. I’m going to go over his workout and his diet, and then at the end I’ll give you a chance to check out a full program that is very similar to what Jake used…
Jake Gyllenhall’s Workout
- When it came to Jake’s workouts he didn’t do any single joint exercises such as bicep curls or leg extensions. everything was compound movements so that he could hit all of his major muscle groups.
- This means he was doing workouts with squats, deadlifts, pull ups, shoulder presses and push ups. You can do these with either a barbell or a dumbbell
- Jake was hitting the gym 4-5 days per week when preparing for Prince of Persia
Sample Workout From Jake’s Prince Of Persia Workouts
This is what one of Jake’s workouts would look like…
8 Barbell Squats (4 sets) (do not use the Smith machine, barbell or dumbbells only)
3 Supersets of maximum number of pushups and pullups ( example… 17 pushups followed by 8 pull ups)
Hanging Leg Raises (3 sets)
2 Sets Of Planks
As you can see compared to a bodybuilding split, it’s actually not a lot of volume, but these workouts are perfect for guys who want to get the “lean and muscular” look that Jake was sporting in Prince of Persia.
Now in addition to the workouts, Jake was also dialed in on his diet. Here’s the main foods he was eating.
Jake Gyllenhall’s Diet For Prince Of Persia
Foods he stayed away from…
-> Wheat (this can cause lots of extra body fat, check out this video I made that shows you why that is)
-> Sugar
Foods Jake Made Sure We’re In His Diet…
-> Eggs (with the yolk)
-> Lean Meats (ground beef, steak, chicken, pork)
-> Fish (salmon, cod, halibut)

Other than that, Jake was very meticulous about eating 4-6 times per day. He always had 1-2 snacks such as fruit or nuts, and he was always making sure that he hit the gym 4-5 times per week.

I’ve helped many guys get ripped and lean in just 31 days before…
Take for example Mike Mcneil (pictured below). Mike was roaming around with a pot belly before I got to him… Now he’s sporting a lean six pack and has a nice set of ripped arms and a sculpted chest.
I coached Mike for 31 days, and he used the plan I talk about in this video to get the body you see below…
