00:00Yo what's up, it's JD here with Men's Health and I'm just gonna show you guys

00:20where my workout's at. I train to do Outer Banks every year just because it's a

00:24really physical show so I always try to come into the year feeling good and

00:27ready to go. There's a lot of swimming. I'm not gonna say oh I freestyle and do

00:31the breaststroke. I usually just swim to not look stupid on camera. I think my

00:36routine really just goes off of what my schedule is like and where I'm at in the

00:41world. Yeah I train with Chase or Austin or Drew or Rudy, anybody who wants to go

00:45to the gym. I see Austin the most just because we play basketball together. I'm

00:48not one of those people who can just run so I usually try to find like basketball

00:52or a sport to do cardio for me. I grew up playing football. I played two years of

00:57varsity football in Texas so that's where all my workout background comes

01:00from. You know there have been goals where I've been like I kind of want to get

01:04bigger or I want to make my chest look a little bigger today or I want to make my

01:08abs come in a little more. A general goal is just to kind of like not lose any

01:12strength that I've gained. It's just to kind of stay like at that consistent, at

01:16a consistent mark. Okay now let's get into the workout.

01:23I'm here with my trainer and good friend Risa Theid and we're just gonna walk you

01:28through the workout I do to get prepped for outer banks. We start with a warm-up.

01:32So we're first gonna start with some resistance bands. We're just gonna open

01:36up the shoulders and the chest and then we're gonna do a little floor work to

01:39warm up the lower body. I usually just try to work it in however I can. You know if

01:47we got a pretty long work week I'll either come ahead an hour in the gym

01:51when we're off. I work out every weekend I can. It's necessary for that show.

02:01First move up we got bench press. Because I know JD wants a big chest, big shoulders

02:09so it's the perfect move. Bench press I used to hate because like I have long

02:17arms so it's really hard for somebody skinny with long arms to bench a lot.

02:21Like it's just harder for me to do but I got to do it anyway because that's what

02:25being a dog is about and I'm a dog.

02:33And then I like to do a set of box jumps whether that's single leg or double leg.

02:38I do that because I did it in high school for track. It's just a really good

02:43overall athletic movement to have. Being able to take the impact and then

02:47explode up from it kind of just keeps you young and your hips really flexible.

03:00And next up we got back squat. We do this because I know this is actually JD's

03:08specialty. We go super high on the weight so he works his core, he works his legs,

03:13his quads and this is actually perfect because I know that he has so many

03:17stunts to do on outer banks and so this is a great move to keep him dynamic and explosive.

03:22I'm one of the weird ones. I actually prefer doing legs over arms. My favorite

03:29exercise is either squat or hand clean or power clean or a deadlift depending on how

03:36I feel because I like doing a lot of weight on deadlift but squat I love hitting pretty consistently.

03:43Diet is the most important part of training because it's the only thing that can give you

03:56drastic change in how you look. The workout really just kind of like makes the muscles

04:00more defined and like keeps you at a certain weight but if you want to like have a drastic

04:05change in how you look and feel you have to change your diet. It's harder to change your

04:09diet than it is to actually go to the gym. So then we're moving to tricep kickbacks. Yeah,

04:16just nice to kind of really define the tricep. It's the biggest part of your arm and just have

04:20to make sure those things stay nice and defined. I also like doing this move after we do our heavy

04:24movements and our primary lifts. These are great accessories especially once you're feeling a

04:28fatigue. For some reason I'm just really bad at like tricep dips. I feel like my arms just

04:40explode whenever I try to do those so if I'm doing like skull crushers or something I got

04:43to do it like an easy bar or I got to do it like one arm because if I try to do them like I don't

04:48know my elbow. It's like something weird. And so the last movement we're going to do is farmer

05:00carries with a super set of hanging knee raises which work the lower abdomen and the farmer's

05:06carries work the shoulders and the back a little bit as well as the triceps. I love this super set

05:12because it's the perfect burnout. JD spends a lot of time on outer bang, shirtless, front and

05:16around carrying you know maybe someone who got injured so this is a great movement to put on a

05:22heavy load and see how long you can go to a failure. And then the same thing for the abs like

05:27I said JD's shirtless all the time so we got to make sure that he's got those washboard abs so

05:32I'll set him up on the pull-up bar have him hold a weight for 30 seconds and then break into as

05:36many knee raises as possible so he's burnt out he's got a great workout. I think any dedication

05:45makes you a better actor. It's a discipline so you know if you can discipline yourself enough

05:51to work out every day then you can discipline yourself enough to do anything else and there

05:55are plenty of roles where you need to be in shape. Thank you guys so much for joining me on my workout.

06:15I hope you get something out of it. If you use it please let us know in the comments or DM me

06:19personally and I may or may not respond to it. And please check out Outer Banks season 4 on Netflix.
