Jamie Foxx Does Not Have Trainer, Uses Bodyweight Exercises To Stay In Shape

Jamie Foxx is a famous actor who does not use a trainer but believes bodyweight exercises are enough to stay ripped.

Jamie Foxx is a well-known name in Hollywood who has enjoyed a career that spans over two decades. Foxx is a multi-talented individual whose work has spanned from the big screen to music. At 53 years old, Foxx continues to be in amazing shape and he has done so without the help of a personal trainer and heavy weights.

Despite being more than capable, Foxx does not spend copious amounts of money to keep his physique in shape. Instead, Foxx uses a pull-up bar every morning to complete 20 a day. Foxx then falls to the floor and completes exercises such as push-ups, dips, sit-ups, and back extensions.

Jamie Foxx recently sat down with Men’s Health for an interview discussing his daily workout routine.

“I do that as soon as I get out of bed and that way I get it out of the way so I don’t have the anxiety, and I just get through it. If you do a little bit of that every day, pretty soon you’ll start to build up your endurance,” Foxx said during the interview.

“You don’t need a trainer, just go back to the old-school calisthetics,” Foxx said, referring to bodyweight workouts that can be done in any location without having to transport dumbells, barbells, or benches. The movements are also simple and can be done with minimal instruction.”

Foxx has been able to keep up an impressive physique and this even allowed him to grace the cover of the Men’s Health magazine. It is not unusual for actors to keep up their physiques to look their best on screen. Foxx can be put in that category.

 

Jamie Foxx has been apart of movies that have allowed him to remain in top shape. He has starred in movies such as Law Abiding Citizen, Baby Driver, and The Kingdom. It has been announced that Foxx is preparing to portray Mike Tyson in an upcoming limited series entitled ‘Tyson.”

This is bound to be an exciting series given the names that are involved. Outside of Tyson and Foxx, Martin Scorsese and Antoine Fuqua are executive producers. This is just another part that forces Foxx to remain in shape on a daily basis.

It is always impressive to see the shape that celebrities are able to remain in while working busy schedules. This is part of the routine and there are plenty of personal trainers able to keep celebrities on this tight schedule and routine. For Foxx, he does not need most of that and remains content with building a physique using bodyweight exercises and movements.
