Chris Hemsworth as Thor

Though being a part of a superhero franchise is a dream come true for any actor, the blood and sweat that goes into getting the superhero body along with a super intense work out regimen is not something that we can downplay. The actor recently told Men’s Health that he has to keep training all of the time, otherwise his body “shuts down". He stated, "I just don’t feel good. I like it for a couple of days, then everything just starts to hurt.” So, Chris Hemsworth works out all year-round. He further added, “I get achy and there’s inflammation, my back’s stiff. I’m just well aware that in order for me to live healthier and happier, I’ve got to keep moving.”

Chris Hemsworth's Workout Regime

Chris treats his body like a temple, but according to Bobby Holland, Chris Hemsworth's workout for Thor sequel is too much. In an interview with Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa, Bobby said, "Everyone is like, 'Wow look at the size and him' and I'm like, 'Yeah, that's brilliant, I'm that guy's double,' so I text him, I'm like, 'Thanks very much dude, you've just made this even harder.'" Holland went on to talk about his training sessions with Hemsworth. "I train with him a lot, we train all the time, we're on the same diet regime and training. He's the biggest though he's ever been, so I have to be the biggest I've ever been, which is a challenge but I'm up for it."

Along with training Chris Hemsworth's fitness journey also includes a strict diet in order to get into shape. According to Bobby, Chris eats seven meals in a day and all these seven meals have to be eaten at the same time every day.  He admits in the interview, that they are eating every two hours and it's become a chore. Bobby who doesn't enjoy eating at all admits that even though they are training a lot and giving the body the calories it needs it's difficult. He finds it hard to carry the extra weight and he thinks it is going to be harder to maintain the muscle on the ligaments.
