The common narrative from those who have seen the latest Wonder Woman movie, starring Gal Gadot, has been how stunningly gorgeous she is.
Men and women alike are profuse with admiration. But did she wake up one day all chiseled up to fit perfectly into that iconic crime-fighting costume? This piece is for female readers who desire
having a toned physique
, while secretly harboring crime-fighting aspirations.
While genetics play an important role in how our
fitness barbell bar programs
deliver results, even Gadot—who, to begin with, had a long and lean physique—needed to sweat it out in the gym for at least an hour daily, undergoing an intensive six-month
training program
that included regular high-intensity full-body workout that helped transform her waifish super-model frame to that of a strong and sexy Amazon princess.
Muscle and Fitness magazine features one of Gadot’s workout routines as shared by celebrity trainer Mark Twight. Take note that it took months before the Israeli star managed to perform the following workout, which consists of the following eight exercises performed in succession with one to two-minute rest in between, as indicated:
Exercise 1
—Rowing machine for five minutes at an easy pace, followed by a one-to-two-minute rest.
Exercise 2

As for her diet, Gadot shares that while preparing for the role, meals were focused on green veggies and protein. She also made sure to consume a gallon of water a day. Furthermore, the self-confessed foodie also made balanced food choices adhering to the principle of viewing food as your fuel.
Having a body of super-hero proportions should always be seen as an attainable end. With enough hard work, focus and dedication, anything is possible. Go ahead, be super.
