The Deadpool Workout shapes Ryan Reynolds into the superhero he plays in the Deadpool movie. The Deadpool workout focuses on 1-2 body parts a day. To get in superhero shape, Ryan Reynolds uses just about every piece of equipment in the gym. Reynolds uses split training to get bigger for his role as Deadpool.

Deadpool Workout Routine

The Deadpool workout routine focuses on one, big body part per day. There is often a secondary muscle group worked, as well. The weekly split is Chest on Monday, Legs on Tuesday, Cardio on Wednesday, Shoulders on Thursday and Back on Friday. Abs are done twice per week.

After a foam rolling warm up, Ryan Reynolds would do a Chest & Biceps workout. Biceps are always a part of Chest day. Sometimes Reynolds and his trainer would work biceps in again, later in the week. (Monday Workout)


Reynolds says they would sometimes add a superset to the chest workout. Instead of doing just Incline Chest Flys, they would put 2 exercises together. Reynolds would do Incline Chest Flys + Cable Flys (4 x 10-12 reps each) with no rest, until 1 set of each was done.

On Wednesdays, Don Saladino has Ryan Reynolds do a simple cardio workout. When Saladino can only train clients 4 days a week, this is the day he takes off. So, if you can only hit the gym 4 days a week, take this day off.

(Wednesday Workout): Warm Up 10-15 mins. (Foam Rolling, Lateral Jumps, Medicine Ball Slams).

On Thursdays, Don Saladino has Ryan Reynolds do a Shoulders & Triceps workout. First, they would focus on Ryan Reynolds’ shoulders with heavier weights. Then, the focus is more about volume, when working the triceps (less weight, more reps). (Thursday Workout)
