This dude hit the genetic lottery like 50 times
Life isn't fair😂😭
He was a chubby kid
And he loves Warhammer 40k and tabletop gaming... so clearly a man of taste and culture as well.

Dude naturally has Superman hair and they slicked it back with 100lbs of gel.
Dude has plugs, just like 90% of male actors. Remember, literally everything you see coming from Hollywood is fake.
Bruh, his natural hair was used in Man of Steel and a bit in BVS, but he had needed to cut his hair to match comic Superman
They Really slicked it only in BvS. Which was also kinda point. Him being as Superman for the first time, constantly under media pressure and pressure of self doubt. And just because it is also how Superman's hair Is in some comics (and Dean Cain version, which is also where rectangle shaped buckle came from), including some of the very first original ones.
In Justice League (Snyder or not) his hair isn't so slicked for a reason, because he returned back to the world with renewed hope and into now a company of people just like him.
I absolutely agree though that man doesn't need any gel to look like Superman, unless there is particular reason for the geled look obviously.
@@FirstnameLastname-my7bz yeah the Gel was to give him more of that good lawer look of professionalism very vintage superman look, i used to do it lol
Zack Snyder is a God damn hack
It’s crazy people actually look like this. Genuinely a ridiculous handsome dude
God has his favorites
Legit Chad
and humble
Well, he put in the work, so he reaps the results.
@@tomasburian6550his face isn’t the work
Not also did this guy just inherent the top 0001% of genetic perfection, he also has solid personality. Unheard of really.
Yes. True Superman, on screen and off.
And he plays Warhammer
What's this notion that extremely good looking ppl (especially men) have bad personalities
the kind of person you are not even envious of....he is such a great guy!
@@wespicedmemes look at a lot of Hollywood figures or even your yearbook. Most *extremely* handsome bros are dicks. This guy ain’t human
WB really screwed this man over
More like screwed themselves by dropping him🤦🏿♂️
yeah... by giving him millions of dollars...
Netflix too by ruining The Witcher
And Netflix.
@@attackfoxwhy netflix ruining henry?
This should've been our new 007.
Yes. 1000 times yes.
Seria legal
Dont you think 007 is a dumb old franchise redone a thousand times and he has better roles to do?
@@guilhermegarcia8750you say that as if Superman wasn't THE franchise done a hundred thousand times over.
it was like, too young then, too old now
Henry has the holy trinity: shredded, nerdy, and charismatic. Let’s all be like Henry Cavill
I can only be one of those. I’m sure you can guess which one…
Amen to that
Jacked not shredded
@@frankjaeger1711 you can be whatever you want brother. I’ve had the nerdy part down all my life and am working hard every day on the other two. I’m still far from where I want to be but seeing progress along the way is inspiring. If I can do it anyone can and the best thing we can do is do the best we can to achieve what we want and support one another along the way
He is naturally kind
Im a straight man but this guy is gorgeous 😂😂😂
A straight man would say good looking.
no you're not
my gaymeter is off the charts atm
😂 as another straight man ye ain’t wrong pal
You aren’t straight .
dude was blessed by the gods with that face lucky guy
So lucky they won’t let him play Superman anymore

I would watch an entire series of Henry Cavill training videos.
Don’t know who he is but this guy would be a good Superman 🙂
or maybe the witcher
Love to see him get destroyed by both franchises
I have good news for you both
@@brilliantnessnesshaha ! Right ?😁
@@brilliantnessness 😂😂😂
He is practicing “reload the bicep”
How they managed to fire him for Superman and Geralt is historically dumb
Pretty sure he chose to leave the Witcher originally. Netflix decided not to renew after 5 seasons, which is still pretty good for most shows.
@@flameshoter6 They were basically downplaying his role. His screen time was cut dramatically to concentrate on the female characters. Which defeats the point of caller the show "The Witcher"
@@HotSoggyCheetos True but couldn't be helped. I think it would have been pretty difficult to tell the story based on how the game was. It wouldn't be very interesting for Geralt to go from one place to another hunting beasts or trying to find Ciri for the first 40 to 60 hours or so. Too many interesting side quests would derail the show. It would be too costly.
@@flameshoter6 I can agree with you, but there are statements from the director and writers of the series purposefully not wanting to follow the game lore. Of course the books are full of stories they could pull from but the Witcher game became far more popular than the books and most fans only played the game and expected more details from the game version. And undoubtedly Henry Cavil was the biggest draw to the show so they should have used his knowledge of the game and put the focus more on Geralt.
he was not a good superman. As a JLA reader and a fan of the show, superman by zack snyder is absolutely not what superman is supposed to be. idk if he would have been way better in the costume if the director wasn't hell bent on making superman edgy. His Geralt on the other hand was pretty good.
Dudes a beast
Dude Henry cavill is a different breed
I've watched this about 73 times, and im still watching....
Are you still watching?
You can click on the screen and pause it to stop
🤣🤣🤣
So beautiful! Nobody compares to Henry Cavill. And yet he seems such a nice person.
British.
Hands down, no one else can pull off the Superman character like him.
Second only to Christopher Reeve…
@@Doncan0823 I don't know, some of the gripes I've heard from people have nothing to do with the actor and more to do with the direction other people wanted to take the movie on.
Brandon Routh was better.
😂.
Damn 🥹 he definitely looks like Superman 😂
He mastered Superman. Great actor!
The best superman ever !! 🔥🔥
hes cool but christohpher reeves was the best always
He had the look, but his movies were not the best.
Time for renaissance periodization to chime in
Lol that's what I was thinking too, I'd love to hear Dr. Mike's take on this
I'm sure he would say everything is wrong. This is how I used to curl...enter Dr Mike 😂
@chrisg4584 it's not hard to see he's lying gravity goes down so keeping it lower is actually how you keep tension on a certain muscle
He would say:
"Static holds are a gigantic f***ing waste of your time unless you are trying to get good at static holds."
Adding a static hold to this exercise is just a good way to waste energy.
He has already covered Henry Cavill's workout 😜
@@GameN3rdz holding dumbbells in the presence of metabolites standing like that is going to do a lot less than just doing regular controlled reps until you hit 0-3 RIR. so yes Dr. Mike's obvious critique is correct. just because something isn't a 100% waste of time doesn't mean it's the best idea for someone who is busy and needs results fast.
Always and forever …. Superman !
Superman.
Best Superman...
After Reeve!!!
Thank you, I was gonna say 😂
There’s only been two 😂
before tbh
Reeve set the standard unless you're young and wasn't around when those first SUPERMAN movies hit the scene. You didn't get to feel the magnitude of how big it was.
reeve who?
Dr. Mike better see this! 😅
Haha so true
Who is Dr. Mike ?

Goat superman and tbh really
Nice bloke
Dont forget that this is the guy who said 4 hour gaming is fair amount of time😂
XD
Wished he was my Dad.
Girl: I like gamer guy
Gamer:
I call these Andreas curls as CJ did them on San Andreas.
Awesome for peak bicep, superset with Hammer curls for quality mass gains.
Get back in the saddle. nobody else is allowed to play Geralt.
Haha facts!
saddle is a poor choice of word, considering Cavill played Superman, just like Reeves...
@@AugustEriksson-qp1ub or the Witcher. Who rode a horse...
@@MilesHoppus Thanks for explaining why it's ironic
Michal Zebrowski tho..
Henry cavill is peak human, just perfection🙂↕️✋
I’ve replayed this too many times
Well that's definitely brightened my day up a bit!
his entire body from face to everything is just.... oh my god. just watching him makes me feel stuff is usually feel when someone is doing stuff with me
He looks much more like Superman here than he ever did on screen.
Thanks Superman 🦸♂️ 🦸♂️
Imagine your best friend in WoW raids playing Superman and The Witcher.
I never thought they would be able to replace Reeves, Henry just said, "hold my dumbell".
This man is an awesome actor.. my favorite
This dude walks in a bar and it’s game over for every other dude in there.
As a man I say this dude is 100% a hunk, but I can guarantee you that there are many women that find smaller/shorter/chubbier guys more attractive!
@@Awes0m3n3s5 You're not wrong!
@@Awes0m3n3s5sure , but these women look different from ones that prefer hunks
For a second I thought the trainer at the end was Henry just doing another American accent 😂😂
What a specimen of a man
Definitely the best person to play Superman 💯💯
Learned this seeing pics of the great Frank Zane in Muscle and Fitness many years ago. Don’t lift the opposite arm too high-takes the desired tension off that arm
I wish I looked like this guy
So does every other man on the planet
@@zachary_smith1 Maybe not Brad Pitt... well, maybe yes XD
You can. Do what he does.
@@rmerrida Tren?
Dude if he did workout videos that were this informative id watch and learn from him. Straight up. Geralt of rivia everybody
Definitely my favorite Superman of all time
i personally like this guy amazing nice and humble person
How do isometric dumbbell holds help with strength for pulling back? If you want general strength and hypertrophy stick with regular curls with a concentric and eccentric. Pepper this in to have all bases covered if you want.
He still has concentric and eccentric, but you're right, the isometric is unnecessary. For hypertrophy it's better to milk the eccentric with a slower descent. Also no reason to alternate arms.
Yeah it’s generally a bad idea to take fitness advice from celebrities since they’ll never reveal their true secret (hint: it’s not their workout routine)
@@Charley.Burley The sad part is it probably is their workout routine. Celebrities get duped by trainers telling them to do everything but conventional lifting
@@deltoidable It's not unneccessary, it does create/keep extra tension. And the alternate tempo is there to give the other arm the TUT on the isometric. This seems to be a version of Robot Curls I learned from the master Jeff Cavaliere (AthleanX), but in his version the arms go fully up for full ROM and they were done with hammer grip to emphasize forearms and brachialis. I've done those and I can vouch for them being a great exercise!
@@Charley.Burley Celebs like Cavill and Hemsworth are trained by the top dogs in fitness industry. They are just repeating what's shown for them. And obviously it works!! Juice is debatable... At least Cavill looked natty AF on Superman! 💪
Dr. Mike Israetel is gonna have a field day with this one.
He is the definition of hitting both the genetic lottery and a personality lottery. I hope gets the Emperor of Mankind role for future 40K movies
I like that the witcher is his iconic role
Superman bigger
It’s not… it’s just the most recent big role…
Yea fantastic genetics, but I've seen this guys work ethics, amazing also.
They took two major roles from him. He was iconic as Superman and as the Witcher. What yall doing is wrong…
Man, this guy hit a perfect score on every rubric. It's crazy.
Can he hold and heave me like those dumbbells- I’m a straight man
U ain't straight
I love when we breakdown the most basic of exercises like it’s a new way of doing things that we haven’t been doing for 80 years
Well then you'd love to hear my uncle break down how to grill a piece of meat to perfection.
Lifting things is still kinda new to us humans though......
@@Cornholio17no it isn't, anciet greeks had gyms and used stone dumbbells, lifting isn't new in the slightest
Well, there's new people getting into the world of fitness and health every day, so it's more for them really. After all, we all started somewhere!
I love how he’s a gamer too. He had passion for The Witcher
Bro is genuinely the hottest man alive and still such a cool person, man.
Silly variation to an already perfect exercise. Just do more reps and/or weight instead.
I love Henry, but that variation is dogshit
Has to scroll too far down to see good comment
@@lefonwastaken3393 he knows too
This dude is a tank
How could someone be so perfect?
Bro looks incredible
Dumbbell curls. Glad I learned this inside industry knowledge.
My current fave biceps exercise
I never thought of reversing the starting and peak points of curls. I’m gonna try this!
He is a Gaming and a Gym Bro, god i love this Dude
Doing this from now forward
😂 juicy juicy Hollywood Style Pump You Up 🧷
You added a pin not a needle 😮😂😂😂
You know he’s natty right
You picked the wrong actor because he's a legit natty and everyone knows it
The most beautiful man ever
We're gonna miss you Geralt 😢😢
Don't forget about the steroids. It's the 90% of his results
he's natural
He’s natty
Says every small guy ever.
If he trains regularly, ate right stuff, his body is possible without steroids, but it does take time, its not done overnight.
He will always be the real Superman for me, i refuse to accept anyone else as Superman.
This man is absolutely beautiful. Some people were just born to be looked at and admired.
That is 1 million times more explaining than Geralt would have ever done. Geralt wouldn't have even acknowledged the question ever happened. 😂
Yeah, and I think Henry wasnt even acting but being himself. Especially the bath scene, he must have hated every second of it.😂 genuinly.
U gotta love him. What a dude.
This guy would make a great Superman.
This guy's gonna make it.
i couldve sworn i heard geralt when said "extra strength there"
Best looking man of all time.
HE LOOKS SO GOOD !
“Fly son, it’s time.”
HENRY CAVLL My best actress Superman so good❤🎉🇵🇰
So handsome that he actually makes receding hairline works
That's clark kent aka Superman right there. David is like MCU meets CW superman😂
I forgot about that work out, ty " superman "
can't wait for Dr Mike to have a field day with this
When i first saw the thumbnail i thought it was mac from its always sunny lol
The first workout coach i would subscribe to
This man 😭🩷🩷🩷
unbelievable that this guy is also a gamer😊
Our best superman it's gonna we gonna miss him 😭😭😭 I hope they bring him back in future who knows the future maybe hold something for us
Maybe is just me but i would love to see more of exercise demonstration by Henry. I mean, its obvious he knows what he is doing, plus he is more than capable of providing a clear explanations and hints and instruction. Since, you know. Vocal abilities, charisma, well read, etc.
one day my body will look like this
I was like, *let's see how he does it*.... It's exactly how I do it!
