X-Men: First Class cast strived to beat each other in gym.

X-MEN: FIRST CLASS actor Lucas Till detailed his workout regimen in issue 21 of VMan Magazine and says that he wanted to look as athletic as his charater Alex Summers appears in the comic books.

“I warm up my shoulders with a couple of three-minute boxing rounds.” says Till. “Then we move on to various body parts without working the same muscle groups we worked the day before. I finish with abs. Then a quick stretch and maybe a protein shake and I’m finished for the day. And I do this five days a week.”

Till says many of the cast members set records in the gym and made charts listing their physical fitness accomplishments.

“It keeps everyone constantly striving to beat everyone else, so there’s always a reason to get into the gym.” he continues. “I am currently ahead of Edi Gathegi [who plays Darwin in First Class] by one. Just thought everyone should know.”
