For a demigod like Hercules, it is not easy to build that body. Johnson said in an interview with Men's Fitness, "I worked as hard as I could to transform my body. I wanted audiences to see the version of the character that I had in my head on the screen, and I knew that would require hardcore strength and conditioning training and dieting. So I started prepping about 8 months out with strength and conditioning coach, and diet coach. Creating that kind of physique requires astute attention to detail. Sometimes you have to back off on cardio or increase cardio, train three times a day, increase your calories to 8,000 a day or reduce your calorie intake. By the time we started shooting I'd put on 35lb (16kg) of muscle."
