Will Smith took on a 5k in 100-degree heat in Dubai.

Will Smith has not shied away from athletic ventures during his time in Hollywood and also holds that passion in his real life. The 54-year-old actor recently took on a 5k in Dubai and shared a picture showing off his muscular physique ahead of the run.

Smith burst onto the scene at a young age as a musician before appearing in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. He turned this into an extremely successful career on the big screen. Smith, who is also a Grammy-award winner, appeared in major roles such as Bad Boys, The Pursuit of Happiness, and many more.

In 2021, Smith showed off his dadbod back in May and claimed that he was in the “worst shape of his life.” This led to a training session with Miami Dolphins’ quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Since then, Smith has been open about his plans to get in better shape and has shared many updates on social media.

Will Smith’s Recent Physique Update Ahead Of 5k

Will Smith has been active in the gym but has also incorporated cardio into his daily routine. While in Dubai, and 100-degree heat, Smith took on his latest 5k and was feeling good before it began.

“Me feelin’ real confident right before running a 5K in Dubai when it was 100°F/38°C!! Damn near WRECKED me hahaha”

A post shared by Will Smith (@willsmith)

Many bodybuilders have gotten a chance to appear on the big screen due to their insane physiques. This is a common practice in Hollywood as well. There are many others who did not compete on stage but are big stars in Hollywood with insane physiques. To name a few, The Rock and Zac Efron, stars of Baywatch, come to mind immediately along with Mark Wahlberg and Chris Hemsworth.

While Hollywood stars have always been interested in adding more muscle mass, they have also gone the other way for a part.

Wahlberg had to put on about 30 pounds to play Father Stu in a film about a boxer turned priest. Wahlberg used a diet that included over 11,000 calories per day. Following this role, Wahlberg was able to slim back down and get his abs back in shape.

It is clear that Will Smith has dedicated himself to getting in shape and has made great strides since the pandemic. It will be interesting to see how he continues to improve his physique.
