He did not taste alcohol until the age of 21 and had a glass of wine for the first time with his parents on his 21st birthday.

During an interview, Alan told that genetically he has a tendency to gain mass, hence maintains year-round leanness by dedicated long runs (13 miles a day) 5 times a week along with sprint training, and bodyweight staple exercises such as pushups, dips, pull-ups, muscle-ups, sit-ups, and burpees.

Ritchson was awarded a full music scholarship to hone his craft in music but also bagged a modeling contract at the same time that put his musical aspirations on the backburner.

Alan was one of the top 87 contestants in the 2004 season of American Idol, where he performed a striptease for the judge, Paula Abdul. He did not get selected further for not taking the competition seriously and spending too much time by the pool with female contestants. However, many years later, Ritchson shared that all his poolside clips shown back then were scripted clips that the producers of the show asked him to film.

In animated fantasy, Beowulf (2007), the body of Ray Winstone-voiced lead hero Beowulf was modeled upon Alan’s build and dimensions.
