Stephen Amell's training to stay in shape

The actor participated in the successful series of the DC universe "Arrow". The archer of the story of squares jumped to television and for that the actor had to change his physique.

“I have really enjoyed the physical aspects of playing this character,” says Amell. “I feel like as the show has gone on, and we have gotten to shoot more seasons, I have only gotten stronger and more adept at training. That means I can always be trying new things out in the gym, and we can try be trying new things out in Arrow.”

“I never want to be one of those actors they have to cut around,” said Amell. “Getting in shape means that I can pull off the stunts and the fights myself.”
