This character has been played by many actors, but the latest is none other than Ben Affleck, who recently stated that he would never again wear the Batman cowl.
Not always very ‘fit’ in the traditional sense, the 46-year-old actor had to train hard to fill the bat costume. His trainer, Magnus Lydback, revealed one of the workouts he used to do during his preparation.
Ben Affleck’s ‘Batman’ Workout
1. Front squats with dumbbells: 4 sets of 12 repetitions.
2. Deadlifts: 4 sets of 8 repetitions.
3. Side lunges: 4 sets of 10 repetitions on each side.
4. Squat to kick: 4 sets of 10 repetitions on each side.
5. Lateral hollow rocks: 3 60 second sets.
You can easily make this workout part of your routine, twice a week, in addition to other sessions.
