This British actor and former swimmer that fans know, Jason Statham has love from hit movies like “Transporter” and “Crank,” has always been in the most enviable shape, a very obvious thing from the many shirtless fight scenes included in them. It’s clear that he works out a lot to look this good, although he rarely talks about the type of workout or dietary regime that he favors. Luckily, Men’s Health magazine knows precisely what all men looking for a body just as lean as his should do to get it. These routines are three-phased, including a ten-minute warmup, ten minutes of moderate-intensity exercises and interval training.
For the warmup, the actor uses the Concept2 Rowing Machine, whose pluses include being low-impact and engaging the primary muscle groups. The second stage, of moderate intensity, is especially designed for Statham to prepare his body for the third one, of interval training. It includes either of the following:
- Heavy lifting using compound movements like the front squat, deadlift, or power clean. Never more than five reps at a time.
- Short circuits of various exercises with light weights.
- Various carrying exercises with kettlebells or sandbags.
- A progression of about 15 kettlebell exercises.
- Various throws with medicine balls.” Men’s Health says.
Third stage is also the most challenging, as the actor himself says. The secret to last through a circuit and build a lean body is, again, diversity: of a series of exercises, Statham picks just six that he makes into a circuit. He repeats said circuit five times during a workout session, taking as much time as he needs between reps and never pushing his body more than it can take, which is also the advice Men’s Health offers to all gents looking to try this routine.
