Brie Larson is popularly known for playing one of the strongest superheroes in the MCU, Captain Marvel. She made her MCU debut with the 2019 film Captain Marvel and has reprised her character in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. However, being a Kree warrior was not that easy for her. She went through an intense workout to prepare for her MCU debut. The Room star has been sharing her workout on her Instagram and YouTube.
Months of workouts and continuous training paid off for Larson as she looks strong, lean, and fit. The workout could be for her upcoming sequel to the 2019 Marvel film or could be for Fast and Furious 10.
Brie Larson’s Workout Routine
During an interview with Insider Brie Larson said that she never thought she would be able to follow such an intense workout. She said, “I went far beyond what I ever believed was possible for my body.”
The Sleepover star has been sharing her workout routine on social media platforms along with her YouTube channel. Her routine includes a mix of workouts from resistance training to boxing and dancing.
The 21 Jump Street star’s trainer Jason Walsh is known for training several celebrities, including several Victoria’s Secret models. Talking about his routine with Larson, the trainer said that her workout includes mobility work, activation work, and then primary strength exercises.
“That could be a squat aspect, bilateral exercises, unilateral moves, hip-hinge work, and a lot of hip thrusting and posterior chain work to fire up and support the spine. Then we’d do circuits of secondary exercises—basically everything other than those primary moves—and make sure her joints were supported and muscles were activated throughout the workout.”
The trainer makes sure that the workout, followed by the Hoot star boosts her strength without causing any injury. Brie Larson has also shared that she stretches before every workout. She reportedly works out once a day. However, her trainer has said that Larson does workout twice occasionally.
Fitness Experts Attempt Brie Larson’s Workout Routine
Brie Larson has been continuously sharing her workout routine on social media, leading many fitness experts to try and follow her routine. However, it was not something they expected. The fitness and health journalist, Lucy Gornall shared her experience trying an attempt at the Captain Marvel star’s workout routine.
While she was relieved to learn that Larson worked out once a day, she shared that she was not able to keep up with the routine. “I can barely do 10 before my arms are crying, and the workout’s only just begun,” Gornall shared.
She did follow the routine for a week and shared that it was a challenge for her. The workout made her realize the importance of stretching and also worked as a stress reliever for her.
YouTuber and fitness coach Lucy Davis also followed Larson’s workout routine for a week. “It’s pretty tough going,” Davis claimed. Another fitness editor Jane McGuire also shared her experience and said, “This workout was tough and left me in awe of Larson’s power.”
Brie Larson continues to train for the upcoming sequel The Marvels. The Marvels is set to release on 28 July 2023.
