But there a lot of celebrities that get overlooked for the shape they are in, and they have more attainable goals for your body than many juiced-up Hollywood actors. Here are a few men and women celebrities that are in some seriously good shape, as well as what their workouts are to get them that way.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/files\/2017\/09\/celeb-fit-image.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1292\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/files\/2017\/09\/celeb-fit-image.png\" alt=\"celeb fit image\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/files\/2017\/09\/celeb-fit-image.png 600w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/files\/2017\/09\/celeb-fit-image-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/blogs.uww.edu\/warhawkfitness\/files\/2017\/09\/celeb-fit-image-300x300.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #993366;\"><strong>Adam Levine<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Adam Levine deserves some credit: the dude is slim and shredded all year round! And just like for most people, it doesn\u2019t just happen with putting in some hard work. What I love about Adam\u2019s workouts, is that the majority of it is functional training. So it will help you look and feel good, and develop strengths and skills that will make everyday life activities easier! Here\u2019s a look into what he does:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">1A. HALF-KNEELING CABLE CHOP<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 10 (each side) Rest: 0 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">1B. LATERAL BAND WALK<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 20 Rest: 90 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">2A. SPRINT<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 3 Rest: 0 sec.<br \/>\nFirst to free-throw line and back, then to half-court and back, then to opposite free-throw line and back, then full-court and back.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">2B. REVERSE SCOOP THROW<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 10 Rest: 0 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">2C. TRX SQUAT<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 10 Rest: 90 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">3A. SEATED DUMBBELL OVERHEAD PRESS<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 10 Rest: 90 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">3B. PULLUP<\/span><br \/>\nSets: 3 Reps: 10 Rest: 90 sec.<br \/>\nSet 1: pronated grip. Set 2: neutral grip. Set 3: supinated grip.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">4. SLED PULL AND PUSH<\/span> to burnout\/failure, 3 sets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>All of this in total of 3 rounds. This is a great example of a full body circuit training. And if Adam Levine can make time for it between <em>The Voice<\/em> and Maroon 5, you sure can.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #993366;\"><strong>2) Chris Pratt<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chris Pratt lost over 60 pounds in just 6 months to play \u201cStarlord\u201d in the <em>Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em> movie series! The dude knows how to put in work! Unlike other actor or actresses who play superheroes or superhero-esk characters and consider or take steroids or other questionable substances, Chris did it naturally and slowly. You might say \u201cSix months for sixty pounds is not slowly!?!\u201d, which is true, but he has put on weight and lost it before, which makes it easier for the body to do it again later on. He technically averaged about 2.5 pounds lost a week, but since he also was working to keep weight on for roles like the big lovable guy from <em>Parks and Rec<\/em>, he then was able to lose it at a faster rate. This is what Chris did to prepare for GOTG:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">MOUNTAIN CLIMBER<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PUSHUP<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">JUMPING LUNGE<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">HIGH BOX JUMP<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">3-PART BATTLE ROPE VARIATION<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BALL SLAM<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BURPEE<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">\u00a0LEG LIFT<\/span> &#8211; Reps: 20 sec. Rest: 10 sec.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>3-5 rounds of this.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This is called Tabata training, which is a form of HIIT training (my favorite kind for awesome results), which is essentially doing the exercise at high intensity for 20 seconds then a 10 seconds rest then repeat over and over until you hit anywhere between 3 and 6 minutes. If you are a beginner, my trick is to flop the numbers and make it 10 seconds on and 20 seconds off for the first and second time trying Tabata.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #993366; text-decoration: underline;\">3) Gal Gadot<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Gal Gadot Wonder Woman Workout got her body in fighting shape for the <em>Batman v. Superman<\/em> movie, but has now gotten her into even better shape for her solo <em>Wonder Woman<\/em> movie. Standing next to Superman and Batman and not looking insignificant is a hard feat, which she totally ruled. With not a lot of women in the spotlight as fitness idols, I think Gal Gadot needs to be right up there (along with a handful of other women) with the big dogs, running the fitness world. Here is what Gal\u2019s full body workout looks like:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">5 MINUTE WARM UP OF MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS AND PUSH UPS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ROWING<\/span> \u2013 5 min Warmup<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ROWING\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 5 min of 10 sec sprint\/50 sec easy<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS<\/span> &#8211; 1 minute<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BIRD DOGS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BURPEE BROAD JUMPS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BIRD DOGS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">BURPEE BROAD JUMPS<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PULL-UPS<\/span> &#8211; 7 sets x 3 reps<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">PUSHUPS<\/span> &#8211; \u00a05 sets x 3 reps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Other than the rows and a place to do pull ups, no equipment is needed, so this is great for on the go or at home.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the workouts, their diets, and interviews, check out the links below:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Adam:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mensfitness.com\/training\/workout-routines\/adam-levines-total-body-workout-functional-strength\">http:\/\/www.mensfitness.com\/training\/workout-routines\/adam-levines-total-body-workout-functional-strength<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Chris:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mensfitness.com\/training\/workout-routines\/chris-pratt-workout-routine-guardians-galaxy-2-burn-fat\">http:\/\/www.mensfitness.com\/training\/workout-routines\/chris-pratt-workout-routine-guardians-galaxy-2-burn-fat<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Gal: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.popworkouts.com\/gal-gadot-wonder-woman-workout\/\">https:\/\/www.popworkouts.com\/gal-gadot-wonder-woman-workout\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I hope you have enjoyed reading about the workouts, and know you will see results with any of the ones you try!
