What is the Jack O’Connell Diet Plan?

Jack O’Connell takes every role he gets seriously, exerting much time and effort to prepare both physically and mentally. As part of his lifestyle, he already eats clean and works out on a regular basis, however, his diet and workout routine sometimes depend on the role he’s preparing for. For instance, for his role in the movie Unbroken, he had to stick to a strict diet.

The actor shared that he only consumed 400 calories per day and was literally starving, just like his character in the film. In real life, he takes care of his body and his overall health by eating well. “I eat pretty clean regardless. I don’t like being too regimented when it comes to what I can eat, as long as I’m doing it smart,” said the actor. “I was strict on other things though, like no sauce. I also try to get my food sourced locally as often as possible. Fresh is always best.”
