Chris Hemsworth works with trainer Luke Zocchi to prepare for his role as Thor in different Marvel films. Zocchi talked about the actor’s diet and exercise in an interview with Page Six. “When we go into prep for movies like ‘Thor,’ it’s a massive increase in food,” Zocchi said. “He eats, like, six to eight meals a day. We’ve kind of got a structure. He found if he eats a really big meal he, like, feels too heavy, so they’re 450-calorie meals broken up into the eight. We try to eat every two hours and getting 450 calories in [each time].”

2. Dwayne Johnson

For a lot of his roles, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has to be in good shape. His trainer, Dave Rienzi broke down how Johnson prepped for his role in Black Adam to GQ. “We tweak his training depending on the challenge or project, but for DJ, training is always six days a week, and we do strength and cardio each day. The Black Adam training process was chest and triceps, back and biceps, shoulders, arms, then chest and back – one of those groups a day – but focused on getting lots of blood into the muscle as opposed to training really heavy. Day six is normally on Sunday, so there's a day off beforehand, and that'll be leg day. We specifically planned a leg workout on the weekend because it's away from his working week so that he can recover without it impacting his job. Imagine going from a killer leg workout into 12 hours of filming? It wouldn’t work. A leg session these days can be something like: leg press, hack squat, chain lunges, 100 lbs dumbbell sumo squat, with no rest between them. Typically there’s a negative hold for three seconds and one-second pause at the bottom on something like the sumo squat. We use a lot of negatives.”

3. Jason Momoa

Jason Momoa works with trainer Damien Viera to help him star in films like Aquaman. Viera opened up about Momoa’s diet in an interview with Men’s Journal. He says that the actor doesn’t believe in cutting carbs. “Jason couldn’t do something like a ketogenic diet, because he needs readily charged energy from carbs to be explosive. And when I say carbs, I’m not talking about breads and pastas—those are long gone. I’m talking about cruciferous vegetables and fruits. You can’t train the way we do with fat for fuel; you need the carbs for explosive movements.”

4. Zac Efron

Patrick Murphy trained a lot of the stars of the film adaptation of Baywatch, including Zac Efron. Murphy talked about what he did with Efron and his castmates to Men’s Journal. “With Zac, I helped him create positive adaptations for perfect posture and alignment, all the while going through a very high-intensity program. I also plan ahead. I consider what type of supersets I’m slating for every workout. With Zac, it was ever-changing. I trained him for several months, and he never went through the same exact workout twice. That's how you avoid plateaus. I saw him daily, too, so it was amazing what happened.”

5. Hugh Jackman

In an interview on Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace, Hugh Jackman talked about how he got in shape to play Wolverine. He says that he made sure to not take steroids and eat a healthy diet. “I got to be careful what I say here, but I had been told anecdotally what the side effects are of that. And I was like, ‘I don’t love it that much.’ So no, I just did it the old school way. And I tell you, I’ve eaten more chickens — I’m so sorry to all the vegans and vegetarians and to the chickens of the world. Literally the karma is not good for me. If the deity has anything related to chickens, I’m in trouble.”

6. Chris Pratt

Chris Pratt made a massive transition career-wise in 2014, when he shifted from playing Andy Dwyer on Parks & Recreation, to starring in action films like Guardians of The Galaxy and Jurassic World. Pratt also had a massive physical transformation for these roles. He started working with Jared Shaw to help him achieve this. Shaw talked about working with Pratt to Men’s Journal. “Chris was still doing Parks and Recreation at that time and not in the shape he is today,” says Shaw. “I was supposed to work with him and a few other guys, but because he was just starting this journey I ended up spending a lot more time with Chris.”

7. Henry Cavill

Henry Cavill is best-known for playing Superman in the DC films and for appearing in Enola Holmes and The Witcher. “I've been very fortunate over my career to have pros guiding me,” he told GQ. “As useful as that has been when it comes to physical results and how the body looks when I'm taking my shirt off on camera or whatever the case may be, it does certainly hinder my growth in knowledge. And so over the past couple of years, I've been trying to quiz my trainer, Dave Rienzi, more and more about the why of everything. ‘Why is that going in? Why this rather than that? Aren't they both carbohydrates? Why this protein versus that protein? What does it mean when you do this before or afterwards?’ And so my journey is still very much in process.”

8. Michael B. Jordan

Michael B. Jordan is best known for his roles in the Creed films and as Killmonger in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Naturally, he’s got to be in good shape for these roles. Jordan talked about how he dieted for Creed on Good Morning America. “I stripped down my diet completely. Grilled chicken, brown rice, broccoli, a lot of water. I worked out two to three times a day, six days a week. And if you do that consistently for about 10 months, your body will change.”

9. Ryan Reynolds

Butler said that he worked out six hours each day, and did bodybuilding, fighting, and CrossFit.

11. Mark Wahlburg

My spirituality, my faith has got to be the center of it all.” Wahlburg also opened up about his new plan. “I don't have to do as much cardio, I don't have to spend as much time in the gym and I feel like I am getting better results.”

12. Vin Diesel

Vin Diesel is in great shape. One of his secrets? Making sure he still enjoys exercising. “I work out less and enjoy it more these days,” Diesel admits to Men’s Health. “It’s a time in my week where I don’t have to juggle things. I can just exercise and be present."

14. Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arnold Schwarzenegger is known for several roles, particularly his role as the Terminator. He talked about his fitness secrets to The Hollywood Reporter. “We all know the rules of life: Hardship and struggle makes you stronger. So I always look forward to discomfort. Why do I go skiing in Aspen for three days in high altitude that wipes you out? Because it’s tough to do, especially at my age. Everyone is talking about their feelings. That’s OK if that’s how you want to occupy yourself. How I feel is irrelevant. I don’t give a fuck how I feel. What I care about is: ‘What can I do to make it better?’ Sometimes I get out of bed and feel shitty. But I get on a bike or go feed the animals and suddenly I feel great.”

15. Keanu Reeves

Keanu Reeves is known for playing the title character in the John Wick franchise. Reeves’ trainer, Patrick Murphy, talked about working with the actor to GQ. “I’ve trained talent for 25 years,” says Murphy. “Keanu is second to none when it comes to focus and effort for a physical role. He 110% gives it his all, day in and day out. It’s one of the many reasons why he is respected by so many who work with him.”

16. Idris Elba

Gregg DeGuire/WireImage

Idris Elba opened up about his workout secrets to Men’s Journal. He says that he likes to kickbox when he can. "I'm not really allowed to do it while I'm working because it's considered too dangerous," he says. "Film producers get very nervous…"I'm not really fussy. I just need a couple of speed bags."

17. Dave Bautista

Jeff Spicer/Getty Images

Dave Bautista talked about how he got in shape for Guardians of The Galaxy, Vol. 2 to Muscle and Fitness. “With Drax always being shirtless, there’s no room to hide any fat,” says Bautista. “I really focused on being in better shape and more muscular. I still do a lot of cross training, a lot of boxing and grappling. But I did gear a lot of my training toward weights this past year.”

18. Bradley Cooper

On an episode of the SmartLess podcast, Bradley Cooper talked about how Will Arnett helped him overcome addiction. "I was so lost, and I was addicted to cocaine," he recalled. “Will is the reason (I overcame it).

19. John Cena

Kevin Mazur/Getty Images

John Cena talked about the difference between wrestling and doing his stunts in Peacemaker to People. “Movie coordinator stunt performers are massive amounts of repetition not only through practice, but through performance as well. Whereas you can practice your craft in WWE, but once you're out there live, it happens once and there really is no wrong. It just is. There's also no enormous, energetic, unbelievable crowd cheering you on as you do all this stuff and it has to be done from many angles and many perspectives.”

20. Ben Affleck

Ben Affleck talked about his struggles with Imposter Syndrome to Complex. “What I’ve discovered is that the idea that outside approbation or approval is going to fill the place in you that is anxious or wanting or feels like it has something to prove. It doesn’t actually do it, strangely enough. You have these moments that are supposed to create that feeling in you and I think one finds that it generally doesn’t. It’s not lasting, that the things that last in life are not the totems or trophies or ribbons.”

8. Emily Blunt

Emily Blunt shared one of her biggest wellness hacks with Glamour. "I would say if you feel yourself coming down with a cold, which I'm like the worst person to nominate this because I sound horrible today - tail end of laryngitis. But... oil of oregano. You sort of just throw a few drops down there. It's disgusting, you burn your throat but I do tend to find it shortens the cold."

9. Chris Pine

Chris Pine opened up about his life and career to Men’s Journal. He says that he has reached a point of comfort in his career. “I realized after Star Trek that I’d achieved a lot, I was financially independent; but something about my way of going about life wasn’t satisfying me.

10. Harrison Ford

In an interview with Esquire, Harrison Ford opened up about what he’s learned in life. “We look for ourselves, and we look for useful information to help us navigate our fucking lives and the world that we’re living in,” he says. “We don’t realize we’re looking for that.

12. Jude Law

14. Jake Gyllenhaal

She says that she makes sure that her way of eating is sustainable, and shared her approach. “To be honest, I just found that making sure that 80 percent of my diet during the week is vegetable-based and everything else is just smaller portions, helped my skin, helped my energy levels, just helped everything.”

Christian Bale opened up about his career in an interview with GQ. He says that he has a lot of gratitude for all his success, but also has a healthy balance. “I’m totally grateful and surprised that I get to keep working, right? And you have to maintain that gratitude. But within that gratitude, that mustn’t mean you let standards slip, right? It doesn’t mean you start going, ‘Oh, I’m so happy and grateful to be working at all, because I never expected this in my life,’ which is all true. But that gratitude must turn into, therefore, ‘I must do things as absolutely well as I possibly can.’ But you get passionate characters in the world of filmmaking, right? Because sometimes caring can come across as a certain way for people who might, uh, get a bit overexcited at times.”

3. Hugh Jackman

In an interview with Deadline, Hugh Jackman talked about what he’s learned in his career. “I think professionally, what I learned was a sense of trust in myself and in my other actors and allowing things to open up on the day and not to control things too much. To let go more. Trust my instincts more.”

4. Charlize Theron

In addition to acting, Charlize Theron is a spokeswoman for Dior. She opened up about the impact some of her ads have had in an interview with RedOnline. “Climbing. Being a strong woman is being a vulnerable woman. Great strength comes from great hardship and heartache. Having to pick yourself up by your bootstraps. We’re probably all born with a certain amount of strength, but I think it gets galvanised the more we experience in life.”

5. Tom Hardy

Tom Hardy has played a lot of roles. He shared how he got in shape to play Charles Bronson in an interview with askmen. "When it came to conditioning my body for the role of Charles Bronson there was no official regime: I did very non-specific exercises such as press ups, push ups, abs work and resistance training. My approach was to do a lot of repetitions in order to send messages to my muscles: this helps them start to grow in a way that you can’t make them in the gym."

6. Zac Efron

Zac Efron and his Baywatch co-stars worked with Patrick Murphy to get in shape for the film. Murphy talked about working with Efron to Men’s Journal. “With Zac, I helped him create positive adaptations for perfect posture and alignment, all the while going through a very high-intensity program. I also plan ahead. I consider what type of supersets I’m slating for every workout. With Zac, it was ever-changing. I trained him for several months, and he never went through the same exact workout twice. That's how you avoid plateaus. I saw him daily, too, so it was amazing what happened.”

7. Michael B. Jordan

In an interview with GQ, Michael B. Jordan opened up about how he got in shape for the recent Creed film. “When I was on my own, I would do a lot more callisthenics — I would do a lot of pull-ups, I would do a lot of boxing techniques, exercises that would just naturally tighten me up. I didn't hit legs as much as I probably should have on this one, but I really focused a lot on my back.”

8. Chris Hemsworth

Chris Hemsworth works with trainer Luke Zocchi to get himself in shape for roles. Zocchi shared some of Hemsworth’s diet secrets in a video with Centr. "He's a big fan of steak.

A go-to shake he likes to do is a banana, two dates, almond milk, and a scoop of protein."

9. Elizabeth Olsen

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Elizabeth Olsen broke down her typical morning routine. She shared some of her workout secrets. “I started doing Tracy Anderson. It’s a very good workout. I do the ones where you work with bands, because I can’t be doing [dance workouts]. That’s a step too far.”

10. Mark Wahlberg

Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic

In an interview with GQ, Mark Wahlberg revealed that he has started intermittent fasting. "I’ll kinda splurge here and there, but it’s frustrating because later on in life I figure I found the secret to being able to eat more—or indulge more often—if I was intermittent fasting. So finding out about fasting when I was 50 years old was a little bit frustrating! I would eat a lot of small meals—buying into different philosophies at different times. But I feel like the fasting thing works the best."

11. Margot Robbie

Margot Robbie has amazing skin, and she makes sure to take care of it. She told The Skincare Edit that her routine is pretty simple. “It’s all the things that we knew all along,” she says. “Wear SPF, drink lots of water, get enough sleep.

12. Anne Hathaway

In an interview with Allure, Anne Hathaway revealed her skincare secrets. She says that she likes to make her own products, and shared what ingredients she uses. “Beeswax pellets, cocoa butter, and mica powder. I make my own products whenever possible (I try to buy the initial ingredients in nonplastic containers, which is harder than it should be) and store them in glass or biodegradable materials. Right now, I’m planning to make my own body shimmer.”

13. Emma Stone

Kevin Mazur/Getty Images

In an interview with Women’s Health, Emma Stone’s trainer, Jason Walsh, shared how the actress got in shape for La La Land. “For something like La La Land, where you’re dancing all day long, you want to be resilient and strong so that you can handle that sort of volume all day…Deadlifts are great for overall body strength, and single-leg squats are more for stability and mobility in each hip.” Walsh also said that there were some workouts they avoided. “Running is very stressful on the body, and the last thing I want her to do is go running in the middle of the week while we’re doing strength training on top of dancing.”

14. Jason Momoa

Jon Kopaloff/Getty Images

Jason Momoa’s trainer, Damien Viera, opened up about the actor’s diet to Men’s Journal. “Carbs are a very important part of the nutrition used for fuel,” explains Viera. “Jason couldn’t do something like a ketogenic diet, because he needs readily charged energy from carbs to be explosive. And when I say carbs, I’m not talking about breads and pastas—those are long gone. I’m talking about cruciferous vegetables and fruits. You can’t train the way we do with fat for fuel; you need the carbs for explosive movements.”

15. Jamie Foxx

Jamie Foxx revealed to Men’s Health that he likes to workout in the morning. "I do that as soon as I get out of bed and that way I get it out of the way so I don't have the anxiety, and I just get through it. If you do a little bit of that every day, pretty soon you'll start to build up your endurance." Foxx also said that his typical workout includes pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, and back extensions.

16. Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson works with trainer, Eric Johnson, to help her get in shape to play Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

17. Idris Elba

Idris Elba shared some of his fitness secrets in an interview with Men’s Fitness. He says that dropping pounds is easy for him. "When I was younger, I could never put weight on, and now that I'm a little older, there's a natural sort of chubbiness coming," he says. "But honestly, if I work out for a week, it drops off in no time."

18. Brie Larson

Brie Larson has amazing skin. And she shared some of her secrets with Vogue. Larson says that she keeps her skincare and makeup pretty simple. “My personal routine is very simple, mostly because I’m a little lazy, but the other part is because it allows my skin a bit of recharging and breathing,” she says. “I have to travel a lot for work, so finding tricks like this that allow me to feel like I have a bit of ritual—taking care of myself [without] a big lift—is lovely.”

19. Constance Wu

Constance Wu shared some of her wellness secrets in a 2016 interview with Health. She says that running is her go-to workout. “When I'm not working, I run, like, six miles a day. I listen to old Broadway musicals, like The Sound of Music or A Chorus Line. If I'm doing a longer run, I'll listen to a podcast. There's a podcast about puns I like called Punk Assed. It's pretty funny!"

20. Lili Reinhart

Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic

Lili Reinhart often speaks out against unhealthy beauty standards. She opened up about why she does this to IndieWire. "When someone is talking about disordered eating or promoting unhealthy habits, that's where I have to step in," she explained. "I'm thinking, 'You're harming me and you're triggering me, which means you must be triggering millions of other people who are hearing what you say.' It gets me in hot water, but I guess I'd rather be in hot water than just be someone who doesn't stand for anything."
