Synopsis: Torn from his homeland and separated from the woman he loves, Spartacus is forced into slavery and condemned to the bloody gladiator's arena in Rome. As he navigates the violent and brutal world he realizes that not all battles are fought in the arena, and that he must overcome treachery and temptation to survive. This retelling of the story of Spartacus is rife with blood, violence and sex, set to the sounds of jarring guitars. Definitely not for the younger crowd.

It is incredible to see the grueling workouts that they have set in order to portray a gladiator's body. They are so demanding and taxing on the body, but the end result is a fat burning experience.
Here's a look at the training camp that the gladiator's are put through in order to transform their bodies.
Think you have what it takes? Try it out, and see the pounds drop. I am planning on adding this routine as part of my cardio day. I will keep you updated on how it goes! Here's the workout: The Spartacus Workout 2.0
Interesting connection between this show and fitness--I bet there are some people who might get interested in fitness because of the show.
ReplyDeleteHey, great job including multimedia in your blog!
This must be very similar to the workout the actors of "300" must have done to get in shape for the film. Must be a Spartan thing.
