Remember the Titans actor Ethan Suplee's drastic transformation from having a once overweight body to a lean and ripped body has stunned his fans. According to reports, Suplee lost about 200lbs by cycling for 6-8 hours every day.
However, the actor reduced weight but was left with a thin body with sagging skin that caused a problem for him getting work. According to reports, Suplee started to lose weight after appearing in American sitcom series My Name is Earl from 2005-2009. When he appeared on his film Unstoppable's red carpet premiere in 2010, he had appeared to have lost more than 200 lbs.
'I started riding bicycles'
While talking to a local media outlet, the actor said that he started riding bicycles, adding that he used to go for a 6-8 hours ride every day for six days a week. He further added that when he lost weight due to cycling, he was left with only nine per cent body fat. Stating about his weight loss journey, he said that after spending two years reducing weight, his wife told him that he cannot retire as an actor and only ride bicycles.
Suplee said that when he went about looking for work, many people did not recognise him and said that they did not know him. He further said that initially a lot of casting directors didn't want to sign him because he was too thin, adding that he had been approached for a few roles but was ultimately turned down for being too thin.
It is then Suplee decided to go to the gym and bulk up so that it did not affect him getting work. The 43-year-old actor has been a part of films like American History X, Mallrats, The Wolf of Wall Street, The Butterfly Effect etc.
