Ripped reality star Spencer Matthews has been showing off some muscle on social media as he detailed how he got into the best shape of his life - but some followers were far from inspired. He has been sharing his secrets but while fans hailed his 'super-human achievement' after he earned the Guinness World Record for the most consecutive marathons run on sand, others took aim. While most of us are writing off December as the festive period looms, Spencer is staying fully focused.
The 36-year-old took to Instagram to outline the changes that have made the biggest difference to his "physique and overall wellbeing". Yes, it's bad news for those planning on a drink or two in the next few weeks - cutting right back on the booze is near the top of his hit-list.
Spencer says he rarely eats a thing before 1pm and says he is strict with the food he does put into his body. His training is also key and spoke of the big changes he has made to make to his life - but some said they haven't got to the time or the money that he has to get into shape.
Charting his five tips, Spencer wrote: "1: Eating clean unprocessed food. I try to make sure that where possible I eat fresh, single-ingredient food. Lots of steak, eggs, rice, vegetables, fruit, nuts and yogurt. 2: Regular strength training. Lifting weights at least three times a week for an hour at a time has become not only a necessary part of my routine but something that I would struggle to live without.
"3: Cardio… Running / cycling. Adding regular cardio to my training has completely changed my athletic ability and mental state. The more time you give to this the more your life will change for the better. Get out there and move… You don’t become old then immobile, you become immobile then get old.
