Dylan Efron Says He Gained 15–20 Pounds on DWTS After Early Drop to 170

He credits a higher protein diet after under-fueling during intense rehearsals.

Overview

  • The 33-year-old shared on December 2 that he began at roughly 175–178 pounds, dipped to 170 by Week 3, and ended the season at 189.
  • He said the early loss came from heavy cardio and not eating enough, and the costume team had to take in his pants.
  • He reported adding nightly protein shakes and more meat helped him put on 15–20 pounds and feel stronger.
  • Efron and pro partner Daniella Karagach finished fourth in Season 34, which concluded on November 25.
  • He is set to appear with Rob Mariano in the YouTube series Everything’s a Competition, premiering December 11.
