Thor’s Chris Hemsworth Looks Intense in Avengers: Doomsday Workout Photos
Chris Hemsworth is looking shredded in some new Avengers: Doomsday workout pictures.
Hemsworth will return as Thor in Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Doomsday. Plot details for the film remain heavily under wraps at this time, as fans will have to wait until December 2026 to see what the MCU’s Doctor Doom has in store for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.
New images of Hemsworth doing workout training for Avengers: Doomsday, however, have now emerged and can be viewed below.
What is Chris Hemsworth’s Avengers: Doomsday Thor workout?
Speaking with The Independent, Hemsworth’s long-time trainer, Luke Zocchi, said that the two of them “haven’t pushed anywhere near as hard on this film” compared to past Thor workouts.
“I hate to say it, but I think we’re just getting a little bit older,” he said. “We’re not killing ourselves as much and always thinking more is better. Instead, we’re being a bit more in-tune with our bodies.”
Zocchi explained that, when they were preparing for Thor: Love and Thunder, Hemsworth went “all-in on a programme comprising regular bodybuilding, strongman training and 450-calorie meals, consumed 10 times per day.”
For Avengers: Doomsday, however, Hemsworth “adopted a one day on, one day off approach to lifting weights,” and “follows a rough push-pull-legs split – one workout focuses on pushing muscles such as the chest, shoulders and triceps, the next hits pulling muscles like the back and biceps, and a third targets the legs and glutes.”
Hemsworth’s weekly plan, Zocchi said, is a push day, cardio day, pull day, cardio day, leg day, cardio day, and then repeat.
“We’re being a bit more in-tune with our bodies this time. [If Chris says] ‘I’m feeling a bit flat today,’ we might just do some steady-state cardio then come back tomorrow and focus on our lifting,” Zocchi said. “…We mix it up just to keep him moving,. We might do 10 minutes of walking on an incline treadmill, then 10 minutes on a StairMaster, five minutes on a rower, five minutes on a SkiErg – just keep moving every 10 minutes so you don’t get too bored. We’ve been doing a fair bit of boxing recently as well. Before I started working with Chris, that was my background, so for this film we’ve been doing more of that. He’s been running a bit too, but not crazy long distances.
“…It will be interesting to see how different he looks in the film. I don’t think he’s as big as he was in Love and Thunder, and that wasn’t the goal either. Chris felt uncomfortable with how big he was on that one, and he wasn’t enjoying how much food he had to eat. For this one, he’s eating four or five meals [per day], but his diet is nowhere near as strict. We’re not ramming the food down his throat, but he still looks great.”
Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday arrives on December 18, 2026.
