Ben Flajnik learned on ‘The Bachelorette‘ that what doesn’t kill you gets you your own reality show. After Ashley Hebert rejected his marriage proposal on national television, ABC decided to make Flajnik the newest ‘Bachelor.’

Don’t you want your man to look like George St-Pierre, ladies? Well, now’s your chance. For the holidays, give the gift of the UFC fighter’s RUSHFIT work out video and in eight weeks time (so it claims) you’ll have your very own sculpted stud.

Eat your heart out Michael Phelps. We’re starting to like your pal Ryan Lochte better. Speedo’s fashion show and the Fatskin3 Racing System launch that took place in London a couple weeks ago re-opened our eyes to the world of cute-guy swimmers. Lochte, with his smoldering good looks, athletic body and tons of gold medals, clearly stood out from the rest of the US Olympic team.

Anyone watch the episode of ‘Chuck‘ where Ryan McPartlin takes his shirt off? Wait… Never mind. That happens in almost every episode, but it always seems like a pleasant surprise when it happens. Doesn’t it?

In the above image from left to right, we’ve got Melih F. Cologlu, Kirk Miller, Shane Raymond, Jamie Alderton and James St. Leger. These ripped — and we mean ripped — hardcore athletes make up part of Team Grenade, the shirtless, British hunks behind the Grenade vitamin supplement.

Telemundo heart throb Eugenio Siller is back in the new Spanish-language soap drama ‘Una Maid en Manhattan.’ Most of us may have cringed just thinking about the American film version, made famous by Jennifer Lopez, being stretched out into a TV series, but Siller makes the show worth your while.

You can tell Johnny Pearman knows a lot about hard work and determination. Just look at his body. The celebrity trainer based out of San Francisco first grew up in Kentucky, where he spent his youth pitching hay, working on house construction and other physically demanding jobs. Fast forward to the present and Pearman has a thriving fitness career working for Diakadi Fitness, specializing in a num

The Speedos brand has a bad rep. We all cringe when we think of those skimpy little bathing suits on men who clearly should not be wearing them, but Speedos can actually look really good, assuming you’re an Olympic swimmer or toned model.

‘Spartacus’ guarantees its audience gore, sex and shirtless men, but those last two are the main reasons so many of us choose to watch. Liam McIntyre is the latest shirtless man to star as the show’s primary character, but does he match up to the previous leading men?

Pierre Spies is the 6′ 4” tall, 228-pound South African rugby star who’s captaining the Bulls for the 2012 Super Rugby season. The god-like athlete amazes even his teammates with his skills, and, according to ESPN, has the leg strength to jump more than four-and-a-half feet in the air. What can we say? The man is as close to a real-life superman as you can get.

Twenty-three-year-old gymnast Kalon Ludvigson caught our attention when footage emerged of him competing in the International Gymnastics Federation’s (FIG) World Championship Qualifiers. The Ohio-bred athlete won the Men’s Tumbling title this year and received the silver medal in the competition for his skills on the trampoline.

GQ named Oscar Pistorius its Superhuman of the Year for a number of reasons. The South African professional runner won gold medals in the 2011 IPC Athletics World Championship for the 200m and 400m races, and the 4x400m relay, and — oh, yah — he did all while running on prosthetic legs.
