Even with a pandemic shutting things down around the world, celebrities are finding ways to keep working out and making sure they stay in shape during the quarantine. The worldwide situation has shut down production and delayed some of the biggest movies in the world, including Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Red Notice, Vin Diesel and John Cena’s Fast & Furious 9, Chris Hemsworth’s Thor: Love and Thunder, and Mark Wahlberg’s Uncharted, but it hasn’t stopped those stars from working on their physiques.
As we’ve previously shown you with their detailed workouts, stars like Johnson, Wahlberg, and the Umbrella Academy’s Tom Hopper know what it takes to build incredible physiques. But what happens when everything gets shut down? You can’t go to the gym like you used to, and you certainly don’t have in-person access to trainers and nutritionists.
Stars are adapting to the new situation and some – including Johnson and the legendary Sylvester Stallone – have been taking questions from fans and doing live videos, revealing some of their best fitness tips and nutrition advice.
Many celebrities are lucky enough to have insane home gyms and areas where they can work out, and they’re putting those at-home facilities to good use during this time.
So when Johnson’s movies like Black Adam and the aforementioned Red Notice come back into production, he’ll be ripped and ready to get back to work.
In the meantime, you can enjoy watching some of The Rock and Cena’s other badass movies at home to get excited for their upcoming projects.
Here’s a look at how some of the fittest celebrities are staying fit during the quarantine.
Johnson is giving advice, workout tips, life lessons, and more as he talks with fans through the pandemic. In this post, Johnson talks about how he finds “balance in [his] wildly busy life.”
He also spoke about how excited he is to play Black Adam.
Black Adam was supposed to shoot in Summer 2020 for release in December 2021, but due to the coronavirus, it’s likely filming will be pushed back. Johnson had already started training for the role while he was shooting another project, the action comedy Red Notice with Ryan Reynolds, so he’s had to shift things in his regimen for that project, as he’s not totally sure yet when it will shoot.
One thing that Johnson hasn’t changed during quarantine is his cheat meals. As you can see in this post, Johnson is continuing to crush his massive cheat meals with this massive pan of pasta and a glass of his Teremana tequila.
Mark Wahlberg is always working on his fitness, whether he’s waking up super early and getting in a workout before most people are awake, or training for a role in one of his action movies. Wahlberg has the Uncharted movie and The Six Billion Dollar Man coming up, but with production shut down around the world, he’s working out at home and keeping his physique ready for when things start again. Wahlberg is changing up his routine by doing things at home, here’s a look at how he’s staying fit during quarantine.
Wahlberg’s also streaming his workouts and asking fans to join in to help stay in shape during this time.
As he’s done for decades, going back to his early days working out at Gold’s Gym, Arnold has been taking bike rides—all while keeping social distance—out around his neighborhood and on his home property
Stuck at home, Arnold is eating healthy and fueling up with some of his many animals/horses.
With everyone being stuck inside, Hemsworth took to Instagram to show off one of his comprehensive home workouts from his CentrFit app that people can use to stay in shape—it’s clearly been helping Hemworth keep his physique, as he has Thor 4 on the horizon (even though it got a little delayed). This home workout plan is easily adaptable to the equipment—or household items—you have, as Hemsworth shows.
As he’s shown Muscle & Fitness in the past, actor Tom Hopper is one of the fittest guys in Hollywood. That hasn’t changed with him being stuck at home. Hopper has adapted pretty quickly to home workouts, and based on his physique, they seem to be working pretty well.
Hopper has been interacting with fans and he showed off one of his workouts for people to do at home, a 12-rounder with 15 squats, 10 press-ups, and 5 burpees. The idea is to complete it in a 12-hour window.
Don Saladino, who has gotten stars like Ryan Reynolds and David Harbour in shape for superhero roles, has been giving advice to fans and showing off his own home workouts they can use to stay in shape. Those workouts have been helping Saladino stay in shape during this time that he’s home during quarantine.
Here’s a 2 movement workout Saladino’s put together that combines cardio and strength:

Saladino has been keeping in shape at home with this full body bodyweight workout that includes sumo squats, one-arm pushups, reverse flys, and more: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_kX1x_H2N7/
Like Hopper and other stars, Saladino has used being at home to workout with family, keeping himself in shape along with his kids. In this full body family workout, it includes a 3-round warm up with bear crawls and lateral bounds, and a 3-round full body workout with push ups, split squats, and planks. He finishes things off with a vertical jump finisher. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_mviVHnSPW/
Björnsson has a pretty sweet setup in his garage with a bench and some massive weight, giving him plenty to work with to stay fit during the quarantine. Here’s one of his monstrous lifts, done before he conquered a world-record 501-kilogram deadlift.
Greene is keeping himself fit during quarantine with some home workouts with equipment that you can use for your own home gym. Even if you don’t have the room for this at home, you can take inspiration from Greene for your own home training during quarantine.
Everyone should be staying inside as much as possible, but one way to get some exercise is to venture out and take a walk—at a safe social distance of course—like Dolph Lundgren’s been doing while in Sweden.
Martial arts badass Scott Adkins has been staying sharp while in quarantine by practicing his craft in his home gym. With a full set up, Adkins gets to let loose on his kicking dummy, and he’s put together a tutorial that people can use to help stay in shape as well.
With football offseason programs shut down, it hasn’t stopped one of the fittest players in the NFL from staying in shape. Saquon Barkley has taken to doing home workouts to keep his physique at tip-top shape for the season.
