Sydney Sweeney portrays Christy Martin, a pioneering female boxer, in the biopic 'Christy'. The film will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Sweeney completed over three months of rigorous training for the role, gaining 30 pounds of muscle. She followed a strict regimen that included eating more, weight training, and kickboxing daily. This transformation significantly altered her physique, as she had to change clothing sizes and noticed substantial changes in her body structure, feeling stronger than ever.
I started eating. I weight-trained in the morning for an hour, kickboxed midday for about two hours, and then weight-trained again at night for an hour.
My body was completely different. I didn't fit in any of my clothes. I'm usually a size 23 in jeans and I was wearing a size 27.
