Chapter 1 : Chapter 3 : Chapter 4 : Chapter 5
Keeping in great shape is one of the best ways of making sure you live a long healthy life. Obesity is becoming like an epidemic in today's world. SO, what can YOU do to keep yourself at a healthy weight? Excerise like Gackt, of course! I mean, look at him. Very nice abs. Very very nice abs. Very very very very edible scrumption nice fine yummy delicious catchy gorgeous sculpted beautiful great abs. .. .. *ahem*

FIRSTLY: a little author input. Being as skinny as Gackt just CAN'T be healthy IF YOU DON'T DO IT RIGHT. Don't aim for his weight goal using extreme methods! Fasting, throwing up your food, taking a lot of diet pills, etc. If you want to be like Gackt, do it right: eat right and, of course, exercise! //end public service announcement

Now, you may ask, what does Gackt do for exercise? Although the exact specifications are not known, there are a few activities he participates in. First off, there's karate. Of which kind, I honestly can't say, because I know there's a lot of little sub-divisions of karate that I don't even know about. But in a lot of pictures or making-ofs that involve Gackt, you can see him stretching and kicking and punch around, fighting his own shadow. He even commented on an Utaban interview that he trains with his staff, occasionally breaking bones. Ouch. Don't break your bones, mkay?

Some more…*unique* ways of exercise is Gackt's special "Shower Position". As so delightfully exhibited on Utaban, you basically take a shower, or other things for that matter, bent over backwards like in the Matrix. This will probably work your waist and upper leg muscles, but I imagine it would be KILLER on your back. And there is also the "Crotch Splitter". Perfect for flexibility, however I don't think you'll lose much while doing that. Except maybe a few friends who think you're a masochist. And lastly, Gackt's concerts are also somewhat of a different kind of training. With all the running around and *dancing* he does, it's major cardio. With over an hour of doing this, it's good exercise. But drink plenty of fluids :)
