Michael B. Jordan Knows What It’s Like To Grind It Out At The Gym Just For The Sake Of Movie Posters: ‘It Becomes A Job Sometimes’



Michael B. Jordan is no stranger to working out, whether it’s for movies roles or just getting back into shape after a hiatus. Regarding the former, from showing his jacked arms for Creed 3 to packing on muscle for his time in Black Panther, the man will do what it takes to be in the right kind of physical condition for the character he’s playing. That’s not to say it’s always enjoyable though, as Jordan opened up about what it’s like to grind it out at the gym even if it’s just for the sake of posing for a movie poster.

The actor’s fitness journey was discussed during his interview with Essence. The publication asked Jordan how training for movies like the Creed franchise has impacted his relationship with fitness, and he started off by answering:

‘It becomes a job sometimes. But it’s also a motivation there as well. Like, you’re gonna be on these movie posters, so you gotta get your ass to the gym and stop playing. That lights extra fire up underneath you. But, also, I think the reality is [that] we only have one body and you have to take care of it while you have it, and it doesn’t get any easier the older you get.
