In case you haven’t noticed, Jason Mesnick has been rocking the hard body, in the 13th season of the The Bachelor. Was Jason always this cut, or did he do some hardcore training before he became the new ABC Bachelor? If so, what were his training secrets?

The local newspaper in Seattle, the Bellevue Reporter is revealing for the first time, Jason’s fitness regime.

The 32-year-old Mesnick sought to enhance has thin build just three months before filming for the 13th edition of the reality series would begin. Dissatisfied with the gym membership he had, Mesnick turned to Bellevue’s Elite Fitness Training studio, located in Old Main.

Some days, Mesnick, an account executive in estate and legacy planning, would run stairs with weights on his back. Other days, he’d be doing sprint intervals on a bicycle, performing pushups or catching football patterns in a neighboring park.

“The more variation you put into a routine the quicker and the more your body will respond to it,” Wasserman said.

Mesnick’s diet was restricted to the basics: steel-cut oatmeal for breakfast, lean chicken breast and salads for lunch and no food past 7 p.m. at night. And he was urged to get plenty of sleep.

“You hear that stuff all the time,” Johnson said, “But that’s why you see a difference in his body. How many people go to the gym year in, year out, and look the same at the end of their gym membership as they started out?”

I don’t know about you, but I definitely noticed his new cut abs. In fact, ABC flew the trainers to LA during shooting. They wanted to make sure that Jason kept his “hot bod” throughout the show. Has Jason gone Hollywood on us? He claims that he’s looking forward to going back to his “normal life.” We’ll see, that’s what Deanna said as well. Stay tuned.
