What’s Tom Cruise’s insane diet about? It has kept him in shape even at 62 and it’s very surprising

Tom Cruise is 62 years old but there is no question that he is one of the actors that works the most to stay healthy and in shape. He is strong and has great resistance, as he prefers not to have any stunt double and to shoot any type of scene himself, no matter how dangerous or vigorous it may be.

For this, he must be ready but also maintain a strict style of eating. Either jumping off cliffs, planes or climbing skyscrapers. Although the star does not follow a personalized diet, Tom does care a lot about his diet being as healthy as possible. In fact, the maximum calories he consumes per day are 1,200 and he also avoids carbohydrates. But not only that, junk food is not an option and avoids all unhealthy fats.

People close to him say that he loves to eat sandwiches, the truth is that his favorite snacks are nuts and blueberries. Furthermore, in his main diet, fish, chicken, egg whites and vegetables reign supremely, and he complements everything with protein powder. But that’s not all.

He also works out a lot

Sources say that Tom Cruise doesn’t really like going to the gym every day and that’s because he trusts the workouts he does. He does limit himself to an specific exercise to stay in shape, as he does adventure sports activities such as hiking, fencing, tennis, cycling, running or kayaking instead.

This happens frequently during the week and, in addition to these sports, the actor also does cardiovascular exercise and weights three times a week. With all that said, he also takes time to rest his body and that also helps.

The reason why the performer does not have a specific regimen and routine is because each of his roles requires him to take care of himself in a different way. Each character demands something different and he is ready for anything and everything.
