The Male Celebrity Workout Routine People Are Most Likely To Try - Exclusive Survey
Male celebrities work hard to get their muscles just right for the screen. Chris Hemsworth hit the weights to sculpt his body into the "God of Thunder." Chris Pratt got ripped for "Guardians of the Galaxy" by working out six days a week and eating 4,000 calories a day (via Men's Journal). Who doesn't remember Zac Efron's huge transformation for his role in "Baywatch?" His co-star, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, keeps his WWE physique year-round by hitting the weights five days a week (via Shape).
Michael B. Jordan uses kettlebells, bodyweight exercises, and a jump rope to get back into fighting shape to play Adonis Creed in "Creed 3" (per Men's Health). Although shirtless Mark Wahlberg was only 21 when he wowed us in his Calvin Klein ads, this 51-year-old actor hits the gym at 3:30 a.m. each day (via Yahoo).
