In 2010, the American celebrity magazine People proclaimed Reynolds the sexiest man on the planet. It turned out that fans are most attracted to the actor’s sense of humor. And also many are interested in the question: did Ryan Reynolds have a nose job, a facelift and botox injections? Let’s see how he looked in his youth and how his appearance changed after.
Plastic surgery
Thanks to the right angles, viewers consider Ryan Reynolds to be a charming man with perfect facial features. However, if you look at his photos, the asymmetry becomes noticeable. The actor’s chin is turned to the right, and the left eyebrow is lowered below the right. But his charm and rich facial expressions distract attention from the slight asymmetry.
Ryan Reynolds had a nose job. But he does not abuse plastic surgery. He is a great example of how the shape of the nose can transform the appearance.
When he first started acting in Hollywood, Reynolds looked more like a bearded teenager than an adult man. To play in more serious films, the actor had to do something with his appearance. Therefore, he turned to plastic surgeons to do rhinoplasty for him. Everything is possible when you have money! And with such an appearance, how not to earn again and again?
Diet and exercise
Ryan Reynolds looks young. Don Saladino, the owner of gyms for individual classes and an American coach of such movie and television stars as Ryan Gosling, Hugh Jackman and Scarlett Johansson, helps him achieve results.
Saladino has been working with Reynolds for more than a decade. He knows that in order to get an actor in shape for a role, it’s not enough just to pump up the pectoral muscles and abs. To make Reynolds look the best in the frame, Saladino devotes time to different types of training — both functional and strength. The coach also helps the actor develop endurance so that he can easily withstand a 15-hour shooting day.
According to Saladino, Reynolds honestly goes to the gym four to five times a week. Each lesson begins with a 10-15-minute functional workout: in other words, the actor does squats, bends, presses, deadlifts, and so on. This, says the coach, is necessary in order to stretch and unclench the muscles. After that comes the power part.
“Now we mostly arrange full-body workouts. He’s in great shape, so we don’t overload him. Usually we build the lesson like this: exercises on the shoulder girdle, squats, lunges, exercises on the core muscles. The program changes based on how he feels and what he needs for the role,” says Hollywood stars coach Don Saladino.
Over ten years of work, the coach and the actor have tried different ways, but in the end they came to the conclusion that working out all muscle groups in one workout is more effective than focusing on the legs, then on the arms, then on the body each time. Thus, the muscles are not overworked, which avoids pain and injury. Saladino explains: the same load is on the muscles, but it is spread throughout the week.
The workout ends with explosive cardio. According to the trainer, Reynolds most likes to do five sets of ten seconds on an exercise bike or walk 15-30 meters on a vertical step lift.
But because of the hellish training regime, Reynolds can not deny himself food. Moreover, in order to gain muscle mass, he needs to eat well. Saladino claims that the actor copes with this task perfectly. Oddly enough, many people do not succeed: the coach claims that 95 percent of people involved in sports do not eat enough. So it’s worth taking an example from Reynolds.
“We introduced more carbohydrates into the diet, and I think that was the decisive factor. His favorite carbohydrate food is potato. In the morning he eats oatmeal and protein. During the day — wild rice and some fruit. After he started eating more carbohydrates, his body began to look better than ever. Carbohydrates gave his body the energy that allowed him to look the way he always wanted,” says Don Saladino.
