Actor Robert Pattinson has shared his diet and exercise program for The Batman, and it sounds pretty tough. In the latest issue of Healthy For Men (via IGN), Pattinson reveals what he did to get jacked and fit for what might be one of his biggest roles to date, and it involves drinking less booze and working out more.

　　To get abs, Pattinson did circuits of bicycle crunches, dumbbell side bends, double crunches, and a superman--he did three sets of 25 repetitions per move.

　　For cardio, Pattinson ran 5-10 km three to four times per week. And for his general strength, Pattinson performed army-style heavy sandbag routines on the beach and boxing. Pattinson also took long walks to not only burn calories and limber up, but also to get his mind in a better place.

　　In terms of his diet, Pattinson said he cut down on alcohol and ate less processed meat and fried foods.

　　Pattinson told the magazine about his strength and conditioning preparation for The Batman, "It's all about pushing boundaries and building up to a point where you know you can do justice to the physicality required. He also specifically mentioned Chris Hemsworth, The Rock, Robert Downey Jr., and Chris Evans as the "true warriors of the superhero genre," adding that he spoke to some of them ahead of his performance as The Batman.

　　Pattinson wasn't always too interested in diet and exercise. He said in a 2013 interview with Australia's Sunday Style, "Body dysmorphia, overall tremendous anxiety. I suppose it's because of these tremendous insecurities that I never found a way to become egotistical. I don't have a six-pack and I hate going to the gym. I've been like that my whole life. I never want to take my shirt off. I'd prefer to get drunk."

　　In a wild interview with GQ, Pattinson said he wasn't exercising at all for The Batman, but according to director Christopher Nolan, the actor might have just been trolling everyone.

　　Production on The Batman is currently paused due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The film has been given the greenlight to begin production again in the UK, but cameras have not started rolling yet.

　　Pattison will star in the upcoming Batman movie as Bruce Wayne/the Dark Knight. He'll be joined by John Turturro as crime boss Carmine Falcone, Andy Serkis is Alfred, Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle AKA Catwoman, Paul Dano as Eddie Nygma AKA The Riddler, and Jeffery Wright as Commissioner Gordon.

　　While leaked photos from the set tend to pop up here and there, director Matt Reeves revealed photos of Pattinson in the Batman costume and the Batmobile, which looks like a classic American muscle car, and that's pretty rad.

　　The Batman will come to theaters on October 1, 2021.
