If there’s one thing we learned from the high-octane antics of Deadpool & Wolverine, it’s that Hugh Jackman’s still rocking it like a fitness fanatic on steroids (metaphorically speaking). This Aussie dynamo isn’t letting his 50s slow him down. His return as Wolverine isn’t just about popping claws—it’s about showing off a physique that’s leaner and meaner than ever before, thanks to some serious dedication. Reports spill that Jackman’s pre-film fitness regime was nothing short of epic. Picture this: a jaw-dropping 6,000 calories a day to bulk up and then a rigorous workout to sculpt that muscle into pure Wolverine awesomeness. Balancing a Hollywood career with a Herculean workout routine? Not a walk in the park, but Jackman nailed it, with a little help from his trusty personal trainer, of course. ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’: From Alex Kyshkovych to Daniel Stevens – Meet the Stunt Doubles in Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s Marvel Film.

Get ready to embrace the barbells and lean meats. If Hugh Jackman can do it, so can you—just be prepared to make some serious sacrifices (and sweat a lot)!

Hugh Jackman's Diet For 'Deadpool and Wolverine'

The Jimmy Fallon show’s official page cheekily posted, "@thehughjackman ate 6,000 calories a day to prep for #DeadpoolAndWolverine! #FallonTonight." In the clip, Jackman spilt the beans about his Wolverine physique, winning cheers as he dished on his heroic diet. Fallon jokingly suggested Jackman’s bod might come from munching “boiled rocks,” but Jackman set the record straight. “It’s a lot of food,” he said, “but not what you’d think. Sure, you could hit 6,000 calories with half a pizza, but I was feasting on lean proteins like chicken and tilapia with veggies.” Despite an extended diet due to a strike, Jackman declared, “It’s worth it,” and the audience agreed with hearty applause.

Hugh Jackman's Diet Breakdown For 'Deadpool And Wolverine'

His daily grub included hefty helpings of black sea bass, which packs in 2,000 calories of lean protein, and two chicken burgers for another 2,000 calories. Add to that grass-fed sirloin steaks, bringing in about 2,200 calories, and you’ve got a muscle-building feast. Breakfast was a wholesome cup of oatmeal, paired with sweet potatoes, broccoli, and eggs (yes, yolks included). For extra protein, chicken, spinach, and avocado made frequent appearances. The result? A shredded Wolverine and some seriously impressive willpower.

Hugh Jackman's Diet In 'The Wolverine' And 'Logan'

Throughout his career, Hugh Jackman has teamed up with various personal trainers, with fitness expert David Kingsbury taking centre stage for The Wolverine and Logan. Jackman’s diet was as dynamic as his training—carb cycling was a key strategy. He’d load up on carbs before 3 pm on weight training days and cut them out on rest days. Protein and supplements were always on the menu. Kingsbury kept a hawk-like eye on Jackman’s calories and macronutrients, stressing the importance of precision. Jackman’s meals featured clean, wholesome foods like sweet potatoes, brown rice, and chicken. Sure, there were occasional cheat days (think five In-N-Out burgers), but his diet was mainly clean and on point.
