So when did Christopher Knight start working out so religiously? And how long did it take him to get the body he has now? Because he obviously didn't seem to work out at all when he was the lanky Peter Brady back in the 1970s. It's hard to believe this guy was always jealous of his older brother Greg Brady. Chris looks way better then Barry Williams does now.

You're a fitness professional by trade and claim he's at 2 to 4% body fat?
While I'm not going to try and "diss" chris.. - because like you say, for almost 50 he looks pretty good, but there is NO WAY IN HELL he has 4% body fat. While his abs are firm, they aren't exactly showing striations of individual muscle that you would see. He's got a 6 pack, not a striped 8 pack. - His arms, while large, were also padded. Lastly, his thighs left some to be desired.
As a professional body builder, you should also know that to get a more ripped appearance (short term) you can eat bananas, and take a diuretic. - Chris may have been doing this for the show.
I am not saying he isn't in great shape.. what I'm saying is that he's not in say, as good a shape as say, lance armstrong, who is 8% body fat.
I don't think STALLONE has ever been under 5% body fat, and he's in MUCH better shape..
I mean, c'mon - He's using 45 lb dumbells for his workout.. It's not like he's actually pushing himself to the limit. I use them for fly's for toning, at 5 sets of 25, and I'm nowhere near "professional" [or, admittedly, in anywhere near as good a shape as chris is]
