Photos Of Ryan Seacrest's Workout Routine Throughout The Years Screams Intense

If you saw a throwback picture of Ryan Seacrest as a kid, you might not recognize him. The round-faced youngster certainly doesn't resemble the lean, athletic man he's become (though he was an absolutely adorable preteen). In fact, he and Jimmy Kimmel dished about their awkward teen years in 2014 after being named some of People's sexiest men (via E! News).

But that was then. At this point, Seacrest has become somewhat of a poster child for how fitness can transform your physique. It's a huge win for all the adults like him who were also bullied for their appearance in childhood. With that said, he has occasionally been the target of Ozempic use accusations, but he has never confirmed the rumor.

Instead, he's made a point of sharing photos and videos on Facebook and Instagram that imply that he stays trim through a massively impressive exercise regimen. (Interestingly, Seacrest's photos from 2002 to now put concerns about his health into context.)

How intense has Seacrest's workout routine become over the past decade or so? Photos reveal just how hard he works at building his muscles and challenging his cardiovascular system.

Ryan Seacrest makes weight training a cornerstone of his exercise. Lifting weights regularly has been associated with various health benefits, including lower blood pressure readings, healthier bones, and blood sugar level regulation. (Eat these foods to reduce high blood sugar levels.) 

In a 2025 Facebook post, Seacrest shared images of him sweating hard thanks to ankle weights. Meanwhile, on Instagram, he showed himself exercising with dumbbells while in open water, noting, "the sea resists me and it's winning." 

Adding unique elements to your exercise routine can keep your workouts from getting boring, which may be why Seacrest's regimen has a variety of standard and novel muscle-building moves.

Ryan Seacrest is also into cycling, but his bike might be a bit different than the one at your house. In a 2026 Instagram reel, he showcased his ability to ride effortlessly through what appeared to be Southern California on a bike without a seat.

Riding a regular bike for an hour at an intense speed can make a 155-pound individual burn more than 400 calories. Plus, biking can help with a person's lower body development while challenging their lung capacity. (Here's what happens to your body when you ride a bike every day.)

As if Ryan Seacrest's other workouts weren't enough, he's dabbled in calisthenics and Pilates as well. An Instagram post by Pilateswithfab highlighted Seacrest hanging from bars while doing Pilates. One commenter clapped for him by offering high praise: "Ryan has such great form."

Seacrest has been exploring different types of calisthenics for years, as evidenced in a 2019 Men's Health YouTube video. During the "day in the life" style compilation cut, Seacrest showed off a few of his workout moves, including push-ups, which are calisthenics staples. He briefly mentions pull-ups, too.

Although Ryan Seacrest may be into high-intensity exercises, he also turns to low-impact ones like yoga. In a 2025 Onairwithryan Instagram reel, Seacrest discussed getting into regular yoga (as opposed to hot yoga), stating that he attended yoga classes regularly.

Prior to this, in 2018, he and co-host Kelly Ripa did some "Mommy and Me" yoga as part of a show segment. Seacrest uploaded a few snippets to Facebook, prompting multiple commenters to praise him for being so good with the infant with whom he did yoga.

Ryan Seacrest has also been known to run for fitness. In a 2021 Facebook post, he's all smiles while carrying a torch for Team USA. The caption indicates his signature sense of humor: "That one time I was excited to run."

However, that wasn't the first or only time Seacrest has been caught on a run. In 2008, Popsugar published some snaps of him jogging down a road; in 2022, he was captured on camera running by the Hudson River (via Instagram). Indeed, running may come naturally for Seacrest: In a 2025 Facebook post, he shared a photo of himself from high school running a road race.
