Could you handle this?
Chris Hemsworth is a freak of nature, it’s fair enough to say.
Currently gearing up for the sequel to last year’s action thriller Extraction – which appears to be the most-watched Netflix Original film of all time – Hemsworth is taking his job very seriously indeed.
Taking to his Instagram, the 38-year-old Australian detailed his workout routine for the Extraction follow-up, one that focuses on agility, strength and speed.
Extraction boasted plenty of high-octane chase sequences, not to mention a flurry of close quarter combat fights in the vein of Indonesian action opera The Raid – which just turned 10, by the way; read all about it – so with that kind of training regime, you can expect further quick and brutal action from Hemsworth in the next film.
As for what goes into the workout in question:
- Three-minute boxing round (cardio)
- 50 squats (lower body)
- 40 sit-throughs (mobility)
- 20 reps for each (core) exercise
- 25 push-ups (upper body)
- Rest two minutes
- Four sets in total
