Darren Clarke has undergone something of a transformation after changing his diet and committing to a new workout plan that has seen the Irish golfer go from a 41 to a 32 inch waist and lose around four stone since last October.
Clarke explained his whole training regime in an in-depth interview with the Telegraph today and for the most part it's what you'd expect; lots of talk about lifting weights, cutting down on carbs, protein shakes and the like.
However when the conversation turns to drink, Clarke reveals that he has changed his alcohol diet too:
I still go out with my mates and enjoy myself and always will. Yet whereas before I’d have had a dozen pints of Guinness, now I’ll have one or two pints... and 10 gin and tonics. So the outcome is still very merry, with much less calories.
So there you have it folks, turns out Snoop Dogg had the right idea all along...
In all seriousness though, Clarke has some actually good advice in his Telegraph interview and you should definitely have a read of the whole thing.
