Ryan Phillippe flashed his biceps in a white tank as he left an La gym yesterday. Although Ryan's been focused on getting fit recently, he's also been spending time on his current project, Shreveport, which he wrote, directed, and stars in. Ryan's working on his directorial debut after dropping out of a TV gig; he was originally supposed to play the lead in CBS's Golden Boy, but instead the role went to Theo James, who chatted up the series at the TCAs earlier this month. While Ryan has been busy splitting time between work and the gym, his kids, Ava and Deacon, have been sharing quality outings with their mom, Reese Witherspoon.
