It’s beach and pool weather, when boys’ and girls’ thoughts turn to, “Does my ass look fat in this bathing suit?” True Blood‘s Joe Manganiello is showing off some hard work (operative word: “hard”) in this month’s Men’s Health. The 36-year-old stud muffin reveals that his career hit rock bottom after he was in 2002’s Spider-Man. “About six months after the shoot ended, I got thrown out of my apartment for not paying rent. Lost my car. Lost all my clothes. Furniture. The sheriff gave me five minutes to collect my things in a duffle bag and leave the apartment.” He’s a success now and can afford some new clothes, but really, they aren’t necessary.

Fitness trainer Craig Ramsay’s Feel the Power in the Shower is the latest in his “5-Minute Workout Anywhere” series that are three tricky things all at once: sexy, informative, AND funny. He’s done the Mani-Pedi and Bikini-Ready Workout, Get Pumped While Pumping Gas, Keepin’ Lean at the Deli, and Brew Up a Hot Bod. Watch Craig demonstrate three easy moves as he gets clean in the shower, while you wish for the X-rated version and think dirty thoughts. Could you show a close-up of those abs again, please?
