David Harbour's impressive physique in Hellboy
Harbor may not be the first guy who comes to mind when we think of the incredible transformations of Hollywood actors playing superheroes.
The character “Hellboy” is an imposing devil who protects humans from malicious supernatural forces. To cope with this situation, even if David Harbour had to put on a few prostheses and a pile of red makeup, it is no secret that he had to put a minimum in physical shape to play this role.
David trained with Don Saladino, the coach of Hollywood stars, who worked with other actors such as Ryan Reynolds and Sebastian Stan to prepare them for superhero roles.
"He must have felt that he was able to kick asses, walk on the set and feel like Hellboy," explains the coach. At the end of their nine-week program, which aimed to develop aesthetic qualities and at the same time perfect functional movement, Saladino said.
This training program will highlight the whole body by dissociating each muscle group: the chest, back, shoulders, arms without forgetting the thighs and legs of course, which will help you create an athletic and Hellboy-cut physique.
In addition to the five days of weight training, the program also includes moderate cardio and HIIT cardio sessions as well as abdominal programs. This will really eliminate excess fat as Harbour was able to experience for the role of Hellboy.
The program combines different training methods with a mixture of strength, endurance and muscle volume to build your ultimate physique.
