As we have seen in the past, Ryan Reynolds is in tremendous physical shape. And a large portion of the credit for that has to go to Reynolds’ trainer Don Saladino, who he has been working with for over eight years.
Now, thanks to a new feature for Men’s Health, we too can get ripped like Reynolds as we actually have the full-body workout plan that Saladino put the star through as he trained for Deadpool 2.
Surprisingly for those of us who’ve tried to crunch our way to superhero status, Saladino and Reynolds have nixed most of the core-heavy routines the actor leaned on in his younger action hero days.
“We’ve eliminated a lot of abdominal training,” Saladino admitted. “In the beginning, he would start every workout with a lot of abs, but he’s come to realize that a lot of his abdominal work comes down to the heavy lifting, pulling and squatting he ends up doing. All those exercises are really focusing on that abdominal wall.”
Here’s the full-body circuit Saladino put Ryan Reynolds through for Deadpool 2.
