Did you know that Christian Bale gained over 100 pounds in six months to transform for *Batman Begins* after an extreme weight loss for a previous role? Unveiling the demands of achieving a superhero physique, the so-called "Batman diet plan" is a rigorous, high-protein nutritional strategy, highly individualized and paired with intense training to sculpt an elite body.

According to expert analysis and comic lore, the fictional calorie intake for Batman could range anywhere from 4,000 to over 9,000 calories per day, depending on his activity level. This extraordinary intake is necessary to fuel his peak human physical condition and nightly crime-fighting activities, far exceeding the needs of an average person.

According to research published in the *JBI Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports*, intermittent fasting, such as the practice of consuming only one meal a day, can contribute to weight loss. This practice, known as OMAD, is reportedly used by numerous actors to achieve dramatic physical transformations for their roles.
