Zac Efron Workout and Diet for Baywatch

Zac Efron is making buzz with his amazing physique that he has achieved with intense workouts and diet plan. He took his physique to next level for the movie Baywatch which also stars Dwayne Johnson- The Rock. He is training very hard for the movie and has been following Ninja Style training. In about 12 to 15 weeks of training he has packed over 10-15 pounds of muscle and his body fat has gone down to 5% which is incredible. Zac & Rock liked to work out by participating in different activities during the shooting of the film too. They  had a pull-up competition in which Rock did 100 pull ups overhand and wide grip while Efron did 99, he narrowly lost out by one single rep. Not bad at all.
