For years I was doing the excruciating weightlifting of writing scripts - but then I stayed thin and someone else got all the muscles.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I used to lift very heavy weights in my mid-twenties - I used to bench press over 300lb. The most I ever lifted was 330lb; I couldn't do that today, no way.
My weight has been one of the most challenging things that I've had to deal with throughout my career.
I use very few muscles at the best of times.
I worked with a mime coach. I did weapons training. I did weight training.
I like to keep fit, but I never lift very heavy weights.
When I found out I had to take off my shirt in 'Teen' movie, I panicked and hit the gym. I was like, 'It's going to be on film, documented, for my children to see. I can't be 140 pounds. I need to put on a little bit of muscle.'
I took my weight training to a new level.
I'm a born athlete. Weight-lifting is in my blood. I used to do the powerlifting thing. I gained a little weight, but I still got it; I'm mad built.
I don't lift weights. I do fitness exercises to stay strong.
I was more of a weightlifter.
