Sylvester Stallone, 70, shows off his athletic physique in a tight purple shirt as he enjoys lunch in Beverly Hills

He rose to fame playing muscle-bound boxer Rocky Balboa.

And on Friday actor Sylvester Stallone made it clear he still works out as he stepped out to lunch at The Palm restaurant in Beverly Hills.

The 70-year-old star put on a pec-tacular display in a purple button-up, which showcased his bulging chest and taut core.

The shirt included a series of white buttons up the front, which really popped against the plum background.  

The acting legend left his cuff links at home, instead opting to fold his cuffs back to expose his large gold wristwatch and a series of gold bracelets.

Sly, who has an estimated net worth of $400 million, teamed the jazzy top with a pair of dark trousers, which hugged him in all the right places.

Married to former model Jennifer Flavin since 1997, the New York native demonstrated major flair with his multi-coloured shoes, which featured dark toe-caps and a red body.  

The silver fox slicked his hair back and wore red spectacles, which gave him major geek-chic appeal.  

Earlier in the year Sylvester lost out on a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role in Creed, despite being the odds-on favourite to win. 

But it was clear he got something out of the film, as he was seen hugging co-star Michael B. Jordan as he left the restaurant. 

Michael opted for a casual ensemble consisting of slouchy jeans, black sneakers and a dark t-shirt.   

A spin-off and sequel to the Rocky film series, the film saw Sly reprise his role of Rocky Balboa, while Michael portayed Adonis Creed, a character who abandons his stable white collar job to pursue a boxing career under Rocky's tutelage.
