A series of sports action films "Rocky" glorified the then young actor Sylvester Stallone and became one of his calling cards.
However, the preparation for the role of a boxer still stands in the memory of a celebrity, which he himself called "the seven circles of hell."
According to the actor, in order to please the producers and the director in terms of physical fitness, he had to go on a strict diet for several months. It was especially difficult when preparing for the third film.
“I drank twenty-five cups of coffee a day, for breakfast I could only have two tiny oatmeal cookies with brown rice, and for lunch a piece of tuna,” recalls Stallone.
Such a diet affected the artist's memory so much that he began to forget his home phone number.
“I was so physically exhausted that there was almost no memory. But on the other hand, everything worked out for us, ”the on-screen Rocky boasted.
