Okay, does anyone else get superbly annoyed with celebrities who say they don't do much to stay fit? You know what I mean -- the ladies who swear they stay slim just by playing with their kids, or the guys who insist they bulked up and got ripped by eating donuts for breakfast and cheeseburgers for dinner. There has to be more to it than that, right? For Hugh Jackman, there definitely is.

The current Sexiest Man Alive works hard in the gym, to be sure -- even his trainer, Gunnar Peterson attests to it. But, the dedication and discipline doesn't end when he completes his workout. "It's all about eating," says Jackman. "I get up at 4 am and eat egg whites, then every three hours after that. I have a combination of protein or steamed vegetables and brown rice. Then after midday, no rice or carbohydrates. It's just vegetables and meat or fish." He admits that he has treats, like a beer or dark chocolate, but just once in a while.

Now, for those of you thinking you can get your body in shape like this by following Jackman's diet and exercise routine for a few months, think again. The studly star says, "I started training intenstively in the gym two years ago to get into the right shape for X-Men Origins ... I train for an hour and a half a day, five days a week -- weights, treadmill, rowing, everything. Then I do what my trainer calls 'a play session' on the sixth, which previously would have killed me in itself."
