2008 Calendar Cover Model and Workout Video Star Profiled as "America's Most Eligible Bachelor"
Los Angeles, California - ICON MEN fitness supermodel Greg Plitt will be featured as one of "America's Most Eligible Bachelors" by the nationally syndicated "Extra" television show on NBC Tuesday, May 22 (check local listings for air time). Plitt is featured on the cover of a 2008 ICON MEN wall calendar published by 10%. He also stars in his own ICON MEN workout video distributed by Greenwood/Cooper. Both are distributed internationally. Footage of the feature can be found online after it airs at: http://extratv.warnerbros.com/americas_most_eligible.
The 2008 wall calendar published by 10% is the second 16-month ICON MEN wall calendar Plitt has appeared in. The 2007 edition sold out extremely fast, leaving a large demand for the 2008 calendar. Plitt was chosen for the 2008 cover given his fast-growing career and fan base. He is also the featured model for April in the calendar.
In the workout video, Plitt demonstrates for viewers the very biceps, triceps and abs exercises that he uses to develop his amazing picture perfect body. Meanwhile, he discusses each exercise's exact muscle benefit to help the viewer understand the process and its end-result. This DVD is an insider's look at the proper methods and techniques to use equipment at the gym to its maximum benefit. Greg's attention to detail shown in this video has impressed authorities at fitness magazines for so long that he has been featured in countless fitness editorials.
Plitt's career continues to grow rapidly. He recently appeared in "The Good Shepherd" with Robert DeNiro and is one of the wrestlers in the Old Spice Body Wash commercial currently running on national television and in movie theaters. Plitt has appeared on over 35 fitness magazine covers. He is the face for Thierry Mugler's new ICE*Men cologne, which has launched in Europe and will launch in the U.S. in September. Plitt will also star as a new carpenter on HGTV's "Designed to Sell" (episodes start airing in September). Before his acting and modeling career, Greg was a U.S. Army Ranger and a graduate of West Point Military Academy.
