During the three-day rotation, hell hit a push, pull and leg split. Push features chest, triceps and shoulders while the pull days feature back and biceps. And then, theres the dreaded leg day!

When asked on Jimmy Kimmel's show about how he burned so much fat and managed to turn it into muscle, The Office star pointed at salads as a big reason as to why, especially in terms of nutrition.

He was pounding down lots of greens, basically over and over again at a robotic pace.

Accompanying the salad on the norm was a chicken breast. Of course, a lean protein like chicken is part of any diet plan out there.

In order to fuel tough workouts, trainees like John must replenish, with lean protein sources like chicken, meant to build and repair.

Hell also mix in several bodyweight movements, including the previously mentioned pull-ups along with push-ups as well.

While getting shredded for 13 Hours, John hit the gas pedal when it came to his workouts.

He admitted to training twice a day at that point, one portion dedicated to weight training while the other session featured cardio only. All his hard work paid off not only for the film but with various magazines as well, such as Mens Health.

This is a personal preference for John, who loves the bench press. The actor stated that he loves the fact that the exercise constantly provides a challenge; hes always motivated to improve the lift.

Of course, he kept this exercise during his rigorous diet and training program on route to his performance as a Navy SEAL.
