Celebrities are just like normal people. Except not at all. Instead of having to find time for the gym amid a hectic work schedule, looking amazing often is their work.
Nick Jonas has gone from boyband teeny-bopper to full-fledged hunk, but in case you’re wondering why you haven’t achieved the same results even though you’ve been fully committed to that 3-times-a-week gym routine, maybe this will clarify.
He recently told Details how he’s come to embody the fantasies of gay men from all corners of the internet:
Diet had a lot to do with it. I went from consuming about 3,000 calories a day to 4,200! Paleta, a food-delivery service, sent me three meals a day and snacks. It was an incredible way to know that I was getting what I need to build muscle and not have to think about it. Breakfast was usually an omelet with veggies and cashew cheese, a turkey-meat patty, and some fruit; lunch and dinner would be lean protein, veggies, and nuts; snacks consisted of things like snap peas with peanut sauce.
And that’s just food intake alone — already far more than the average person can keep up with.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Here’s the workout routine:
I was doing three sessions a day: one fight-training with Kingdom’s coach, Joe “Daddy” Stephenson, and two strength-building with Gregg. Each workout focused on a different region of the body—upper body, core, or legs—and we’d do a circuit of six different moves for one area. Lifting a lot of weights, really trying to break the muscles down. I got pretty Hulk-ish.
Here’s some photo evidence of Nick’s hard work:

Please.

Job well done Nick.

Have you seen the Paleta pricing? Only the 1% can afford these meal delivery services.

“he’s come to embody the fantasies of gay men from all corners of the internet”, lmao!! Just because a few stupid queens fall for your obvious pandering does not mean you are a fantasy. The face is below average, the body is decent, only because he has nothing else to do, so please don’t go thinking your better than you actually are. Tons of guys with better faces and bodies, so get over yourself.

Sick? It’s ok, but nothing spectacular.
JerseyMike
Sick body? LMAO!!!

Nice! And Nick is blessed with his youth, although not inspired enough to motivate. But like so many of us…lifting pizza, fries and a beer in front of the TV is far easier and intrinsically serotonin pleasurable than lifting a barbell in a crowded gym. Long live BIG and beautiful!

Nick whatever your doing, it’s working.

Hot. Nick Jonas is flawless. I noticed he doesn’t eat processed carbs. I have a buddy with type II diabetes and even on insulin, the disease was kicking his ass. He stopped eating processed carbs and he got better. He dropped weight, had energy and his blood glucose numbers improved.
Mike
Over it!

“Sick”? Really, please do everyone a favor and don’t try to write ghetto unless you are ghetto.
ingyaom
Wow – all that and he still looks kind of average.
Jonathan26
@ingyaom: Thank you.
dave lopes
All that work and he still looks like that…at his young age.
I know 40 year olds with “sicker” bodies.

@dave lopes: Exactly.

@spiffy: no shyte! I just looked and it’s $79 for ONE DAY of JUICE! $46 dollars more f you want to eat that day as well. Funk that.

What’s happened to the cleverness and sark of Queerty. It’s increasingly turning into just another dumb gay blog celebrating ‘hotties’. BORING – we can get that anywhere – please bring the old Queerty back.

SO when does he use the muscles to open the closet door???

Nick looks good. He’s branched out of that Jonas Brothers mode and good for him. However, built guys are a dime a dozen. Take a look at Scott Bakula (“Looking;NCIS:New Orleans”) who is what almost or at 60? Talk about a sick body!
TrueWords
he is 22 years old and with nothing to do all damn day but go to the gym…talk with me after he is 30 and juggling on a daily basis and some other responsibilities…
I am 46 years old and have a much better sculpted body…
Sorry Nick…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ytCEuuW2_A

Good going for him, and he looks great but in reality, in the gym we call that a “starter body.” I’m just a little surprised that with a “professional” trainer his chest is surprisingly underdeveloped. He’s all abs and arms. But keep in mind it’s a “new body” meaning the muscles haven’t had a chance to grow on themselves and keep permanent results, so he’s gonna have to keep up the work if he wants those gains to stick.

He really seems to have a bit of gynecomastia, though, which is a side effect of steroid use – although if he used steroids it looks like he wasted his money.
Stache99
I was reading the mean comments you guys guys are making. Then I went back and did a closer inspection of ol Nick. LMAO. Then you take the fact that this guy has the best of everything with nothing to do but spend time at the gym.
If you cut and pasted someone else s face on him he would be your average young guy. He’s young and somewhat famous though so of coarse the site has to fawn over him and his “muscles”>
Stache99
@Manchester: That reminds me of the old days of muscle and fitness. I bought effing three of Bob Paris’s books. In it he talked about foods to eat and generally just healthy living and you too can look like me.
Looking back it’s oh hell no. Not unless you want to load yourself up with steroids and spend 24/7 in the gym. These guys are paying the price today though with things like heart failure to name a few.

@NJjoe: I agree! Scott Bakula is a stud. He has the second best butt in Hollywood, after Chris Meloni.

He is sexy. I only care about results.

@odawg:
YES and YES!! This nic kid doesn’t even come close to either one of those men. Though I am sure he will continue to pander to the kiddo lovers.

Nick Jonas has been going to the gym.. for a couple of months, and he’s got some okay results and definitely not using steroids.
However, with a personal trainer, loads of free time, loads of high quality food and supplements, and his age, which is a perfect starting point for lifting, he could be looking much better at this point. Queerty should not be talking about all the things he’s doing right, but what he’s doing wrong.
To me it seems as if his personal trainer thinks that Nick’s chest does not need any work at all, and has prohibited Jonas from doing any kind of push-ups or bench presses.
The thing we should be discussing: Why is Queerty hawking this “Nick Jonas is a super stud and has the body of a greek god”-agenda? Did they really think we’d buy it? Or is Nick planning a big coming out thing, and secretly paying them to make us love him?
This is just failling on so many points, and too funny to not comment on! 😀
Kangol
His hairy buttcrack is what I want to see again.
