As a personal trainer myself I’m always extremely impressed by Magnus and his ability to adapt to his clients needs. He doesn’t simply regurgitate bodybuilder splits that have been around since the 80s like a lot of modern trainers you see. I love he always puts the clients physical well being and them staying injury free above simply chasing a certain aesthetic. Training to look like a warrior and training to perform/act like a warrior for months at a time are two very different things and I very much appreciate Magnus and his ability to differentiate between those two scenarios. Alexander both looked and performed amazingly in this movie well done guys. Shoutout to Belfast! I’m northern Irish myself seeing amazing projects like the Northman being filmed here makes me very proud of our film industry.

It's an awesome and amazing insight into a routine necesarry for building up and preparing an actor for a role. However, do not ever fall into the trap of "I'll eat and train like X = i'll look like X". It is almost always not the case, because each and every one of us is different. And props to Magnus for just sharing the routines, and not advertising them as a way to get into the same shape as Alexander Skarsgard. Respect

@@davidlloyd2594 Yeah just be honest about it, so shady when celebs and trainers say "he eat like this and look like this" or sell a product when on roids and claim it's natural....people will just be dissapointed when they don't get any gains.

Truly an amazing feat for Alexander. The Northman was extremely impressive. His take on the character of Amleth was genuinely believable by how much his physique and character portrayal came to be. This is by far Alexander's best work. He deserves accolades for his work on the Northman. I have nothing but respect for Alexander as an actor. He is in my top 5 favorite actors of all time. He holds no barrier in his craft. I hope to see him in more epic movies like this.
Right? It’s just lying. It’s real fucked up. Just be honest and everyone will still be impressed. The diet and training is still no joke but why are you fuckin with impressionable boys heads making em believe this shit? some go through years of training trying to look like their movie star role model and get body dysmorphia even though what they end up achieving is still impressive. Such a bummer to lie to a bunch of kids. It’s essentially what they’re doing.
@@standunitedorfall1863 Juicing up is the only thing that does work. And it's unlikely the industry will ever own up to it, unless they absolutely have to.
@@byunism I don't think so, looking at the shoulders and traps and even the mass. The result are very good but not unrealistic (remember that is job is to move and train all day). This physic is, in my opinion, reachable with hard work, discipline and a hard cut (hardest part...). How are you justifying your thoughts?
Used to live in NYC, and while working in BBC Productions in BBC Worldwide, a friend of mine went to Marvel Studios just as Marvel were really ramping it up. She said three things - 1) some actors use steriods, 2) a lot of the action shots include best lighting angles and 3) if that didn't work, in post production they would work on some aspects of the actors body if they could make it work (like highlighting/shadows/ etc). Now I saw Northman, and I remember Alex from HBO Generation Kill - the guy was always in good shape and his body is not too crazy for someone who is in good shape, trained hard and looked after himself. Some of the Hollywood folks are definitely juicing
Most are juicing. He was probably juicing. It’s kinda necessary for extreme transformations in short time frames, so it’s not a criticism, just part of the process.
@@jizzlemack9927 But... you then have the coaches and the actors promoting themselves talking about random exercise routines and silly diets. That, i believe, deserves criticism. Because it is a lie.
You’re definitely right- but let’s not forget that stuff isn’t some miracle drug that’ll turn a lazy slob into a stud, it’ll just make the results from the work come faster.
@berzerkr blitz Absolutely. I know from person experience, I’ve done it natural and I’ve done it juiced to the gills, and the difference isn’t as huge as a lot of people seem to believe. It’s a big improvement for sure, but there’s a sentiment nowadays that EVERYONE who’s lean with some muscle is juicing. The only reason I’d assume this guy did was because of the time frame required for a part in a movie.
@@bojangprodoktschns5428 A lot of these actors who get a little ‘specialized training’ are under contract so even they wanted to be candid, they probably can’t, I love Alexander but I’m I just a bit skeptical
Just saw ge movie in the cinema. FANTASTIC MOVIE! @magnus I saw your name in the ending credits. You must be truly proud of yourself. Alexander looked amazazazing!!
Even as a computer nerd who used to workout, its lovely to see all the classic exercises still being used and how relaxing this is on the mind afterwards. Good luck to everyone who gets involved with it!
After watching the movie and seeing just that first action scene with adult amleth I was actually stunned at how awesome he looked because it was so accurate to a berserker and he was such a beast
I go to the gym 5 days a week and my jaw dropped when I saw him walking with his gigantic shoulders flexed out in the beginning. Its when they're pillaging a village and he's double fisting his weapons. He put on between 20-25 lbs for this role.
How is this "accurate" to a 'berserker' or viking? Did vikings eat 5 meals a day? Probably not. Did they do very balanced workouts which were not connected to fighting? Also no. Were their looks even that relevant to them? Also highly unlikely.
@@geronimo8159 The beauty standard for Viking age Scandinavians was actually pretty high for the period, we know from both English and Scandinavian accounts that they were better groomed than the Anglo-Saxons and the Franks, there are loads of viking age burials and finds that include combs, brushes and even an instrument for clearing ones ears. When you consider the fact that wealth was always, especially for viking age warriors, portrayed through material culture like weapons and armour, it's pretty safe to say that they did care about how they looked.
Nice video man. I wish I could do all these exercises, but I am still really fat and unflexible. Have been trying so hard recently though. Going to gym every day, and I got great meal plan from Next Level Diet. I hope I will slim down fast so I can start with calisthenics. I believe in myself, that's the most important thing IMO.
Just wanna give you support man! Keep exercising and keep up with your healthier diet. If you ever falter in your faith come back to these comments and know that complete strangers are happy to see you succeed! Also try some yoga (like Alex in the video!). Not only does it help with your inflexibility, it can be pretty intense depending on the regiment you take. Good luck!!!
finally (my curiosity were killing me). thank you for the free explanations. nice to see you are making your name in the products industry as well. I hope your channel grows bigger and bigger. congrats
I really love the workout routines this guy gives and I can’t wait to implement them. However, to all the average physique guys out there that might be gullible and stumble upon this video. You’re not gonna look like that in weeks, or even months. Keep at it and maybe you will in years. Even if you don’t you will be healthier and look like a beast in your own right.
if we all had access to Hollywood lighting, special effects, movie editing software and make up artists who can shade and tone average abs into sculpted gods, We sure could look like that in no time.
come to islam, and stop being utilitarian liberals or whatever the moral system or ideology you have. Islam is the only metaphysical and moral system that doesn't generate contradictions. Learn more through sheikh like othman ibn faroq or mohammed hijab or free books (Divine reality and the mirage of atheism, the Burhan, etc) ... and hopefully you guys will understand that this life is made temporary and ment to follow our desires, but to worship the necessary existence, self-sufficient, etc, who created us (through evolution or whatever the theory). There is only one god (Allah). He is not a contingent existence. He is unique and has no partners. He descended revelations to prophets such as Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally Mohammed peace be upon them all. Islam structures your life so your din, intellect, family and property is protected. It makes sense and its a way of life that will make you happier as a consequence. Paradise is for ever, this life is temporary, don't be blind. Its just a reminder for those who reflect.
@@MrHouloul Where the hell did that come from lol? Do you even realise there a many religions on this planet who all think the exact same thing about their teachings, their system and their god? Every or atleast most different religion thinks they are correct and other ways to live your life is wrong. What makes your religion so special or different? I heard this kind of thing a million times from different religious organisations. At the end of the day be glad you believe your own bullshit about allah and your religion, because no one else does. I can also suggest to stop crying in comments about things no one wants to hear, if you hate the freedom and the lifestyle of the West/Europeans then stop going websites we have created, stop indulging in our culture and our creations, stop going where you know you will be offended. Or better realise your religion doesn't mean anything and live life on your own terms. Either way, get lost.
@@vitaliyivanov7768 What makes your religion so special or different? thats a good question. Islam is the only logical metaphysical system. It respects the fundamental principles of logic. God has to be omniscient, self-sufficient, and be independant. Catholics and protestants believe god is jesus, which is a big contradiction, so the principle of identity is not respected, done. You cant have someone who don't now be omniscient. a human has a biginning and an end. Jesus prostrated to god. he cant be god, his nature is limited. You cant be unlimitted and limitted at the same time unless you're schizophrenic. Judaism in the story of the oven of akhnai, rabis debated god and god has apologised for his mistake... So their god is Not omniscient, another contradiction... Hindus are polytheists, so how can you have a gods that are limited and not limited at the same time, same contradiction with chriastianism... How can you worship a cow or animals or whatver contingent existence it is. Atheist are materialist, so they believe matter is god, but matter does not have will to create and its not independant, its a contengent existence, so contradictory to the definition of god. Only islam is clear about its monotheistic belief. And only belief that respects the fundamental principles of logic. So, NO, not every religion are the same, islam is above all religions.
@@emotionalintelligence776 Well he is pretty old, 45. You don't build muscle as easily at that age since as men get older their testosterone naturally decreases. Also, putting on muscle mass takes a long time. The amount of muscle he gained in such a short amount of time is sus.
@@juniordev2570 Dude if you believe thats all you can do with ample money and support then I won't waste my time. There's a big world out there for those who have their eyes and their minds open.
Magmus, I played (multiple) sports most of my life (HS varsity and college, etc ...), Powerlift (until life got screwed up the last few yrs, had 40inch quads, etc... and training to break a bench press record (max bench was 425lbs, before the aforementioned)) and more. So of course I realize not everyone powerlifts (or honestly is "cut out" for it). With that said, I didn't like your lifting suggestions, they're two light and not enough sets and you didn't mention "negatives" which greatly enhance size and more importantly Strength. Though for the "average person" and "newbie", it was ok and appropriate to start out with. And, I do highly appreciate the need for agility training and the abilities of agility & range of motion - these techniques you showed I did like and suggest others to listen to you on them. And Remember y'all, Form IS Everything! If you want to gain max results, size, strength, agility and Avoid Injuries - Form is Everything!! ... If its too heavy for you to workout with (including "maxing out") while keeping good form; then do Not Force it - work up to it!!
So overjoyed to see the man that Skarsgard spoke of in his hilarious“cheat day” story! Also, James McAvoy’s retelling of his training for Split was great.
@@ericwilliams538 yeah I wasn’t surprised that McAvoy named Magnus as his trainer for that project. It’s funny to think of the connections behind the camera.
@@kingmuhu it’s not as much as you’d think then a syringe 💉 is involved. You can basically be more lenient on your diet and working out and you’ll still end up extremely ripped

Wow the first time I saw Alex was in True Blood and to see his body transformation is extraordinary. Two thumbs up for him. Yeah and to you too for his training 🔥💪🏽
You did a great job! And Alex is such a hardworking person, I admire his determination! Thank you for sharing his training. Can't wait to watch The Northman, the premiere is on April 29 in my country.
@@gregoryking4796 Exactly. Whatever this video says, it's a half truth at best. They probably had little time between Skaarsgard's prior production and this to get the body. It's the same all over Hollywood. It ain't five meals and kettle bells or regular gym training.
I have only two criticisms of the film: 1. The draugr fight shouldn't have been played off as fake, since none of the other mystical elements were in such a blatant way. 2. Although we don't know much about Slavic religions, we know enough to have made Olga's character more authentic (e.g. invoking Morana, Veles, Stribog etc instead of "the earth" or "the north wind"). Other than that it was really great.
Gosh, I've been wasting my time with heavy compound lifts for years. Instead, I should have done light weights in medium rep ranges for six weeks! No wonder I've seen so little progress putting on weight.
@@BruceWayne-de4gm around 10-12 reps is medium I suppose. Below 5 would be low. Above 15 would be high. Just to be sure, my comment was all sarcasm : ) This guys' advise goes against everything I've seen for building lean muscle.
It's so nice to get actual content, instead of just random workout clips (without any explanation) like in many other "Train like Xxx" videos. Thank you for that. You did a great job & are a beast yourself! Will def check out more from your program.
Alex's body in the final scene of the movie was insane. Honestly didn't know a person that looks like Alex could possibly get that big without special effects. Good shit man.
Genuine question. Why is this exercise selection preferable to standard bodybuilding and then add all this rotator/hip stuff at the end? Why not just focus completely on muscle building first and then focus completely on the rotators and hips?
Just saw the “The Northman” for opening night and Alex’s physique was TOP NOTCH! Will easily steal awards in 2022 but the preparation you gave him months before that you’ve been keeping everyone informed about easily showed. Was super impressed before the film was released but on screen was a totally different monster! Great work, look forward to more of your clients absolutely crushing on screen 👏🏼🎥🍿
@@cosborne06 You clearly don't watch arthouse movies, or maybe you just don't enjoy them. This movie was amazing and will 100% win a few Oscars. His last movie won a very competitive Oscar despite it being much much less of a mainstream movie than this was, and this one is likely to win more.
@@cetus835 I'd like to hear about these objective flaws. The only issue I had with the movie was a single scene where I struggled to understand a few of the words.
Man you trained him to be a bare wolf! Awesome job bro! I loved this movie so much, Alexander has to win awards for this very believable Viking persona!
I have the exact same height and build as Alex Skarsgard, I always felt my ribcage was tiny, but seeing him being appreciated for his physique makes me feel much better about my own. Us ectos need our rest days.
Both you& Mr. Skarsgard did a fantastic job! This was extremely impressive and just reveals the amount of dedication and perseverance actors must have in order to prepare for a film and also the amazing trainers that help achieve what is required. You did such an amazing job! Mr. Skargard did a phenomenal job becoming his character; I believed I was watching a season in this characters life.

Wow just so the trailer for this. Love Robert Eggers and this cast is amazing so will defnitely see it in the cinema soon. Amazing you train all these top actors. He looks insane in the movie clips. Must be a dedicated guy whos commmited to the role and physical transformation. I was wondering does he take any PEDs. I know every at the moment in Holiday is getting called out for not mentioning that they often take PEDs prior to this sort of muscular transformation. What do people think?
He def takes PED. As a bodybuilder myself I can safely say that if you wanted this physique you would need to work atleast 8-10 years, but this guy and every other Hollywood actor can do these kind of physiques in a year… Still alot of work done, But it is not those exercises or the 5 meals a day which made this. I would even say that some people with bad genetics would not be able to become that big in their lifetime.
Oh crap! I'm too late. Your Long Bands are sold out... I like the fact that they are not a rubber. Any suggestion where else I could get similar to those? Thanks
Does performing farmer's walks at the start of the set not compromise grip strength on the following exercises (potentially failing on grip before properly exhausting back and bicep muscles), or was the aim to increase forearm strength/size? Also, if this is Alex's genuine back day and the aim (as per the reduced cardio) was size, shouldn't there be more heavy compounds? Not criticising, just surprised and genuinely interested.
Farmers walks seemed to be the main heavy compound movement. The exercise works your entire back, arms and shoulders isometrically in the same manner as a deadlift would.
Not that it may necessarily work, not for everyone at least, but the general idea behind the concept is that you’re doing farmer’s walls at the beginner with as much weight as you can manage so that you burn your arms out before anything else. . The belief is that your muscles build back harder and bigger if they’re already exhausted when your main exercise begins. You’re adding far more stress, and therefore Micro-Tears in your muscles, by burning them out first and then doing your exercises, than if you just did the exercises. . Like I said though, it’s certainly not a scientifically established concept, and it widely differs from person to person. One person may do it every day and see insane results within 3 months. Another person might do this and end up in the hospital.
Hell yes! You nailed it and I thank you and Alex for your hard work in producing this epic movie! It’s such a shame it’s not doing that well at the box office.. if there was ever a movie that didn’t deserve to bomb.. it’s this movie. Take it as no reflection for the quality of this movie. I personally blame the marketing team.. the hype for this movie was all over the place a few months ago and then almost nothing right after. They needed to follow that initial push up with more trailers and then they just didn’t. Did marketing run out of money or something?
Berserkers were a real thing in northern tribes. Basically the best warriors with religious fanaticism & drugs to numb out the pain & go into the "enraged state". During the roman conquest particularly past the Rhineland berserkers were most feared by the legions & kept the legions on one side of the Rhine until the rhine itself pseudo invaded with many tribes like the vandals, goths, alemmani etc
Need a part 2. You do great work with these actors. You barely scratched the surface of the exercises that got him the Northman body. What I want to know is how he got such big traps, what were the exercises? Thanks
In this life not too many things absolutely amaze me anymore, The mental and physical transformation you made is nothing shy of God-like, by far the most believable and incredibly real looking action film I've ever seen, you nailed this role my friend, Thank you for your commitment and performance!!🤘🤘
Interesting first part of the video. Learned some cool things about how actors prepare for a role. Other than that, the back workout was waaaay to easy to put that much muscle mass in that short time-frame. The lat-pulldowns were the only proper exercise there that builds muscle. Everything else was just warmup, stretching, core and some gimmick that I don't see the use for it.
How to get ripped like Skarsgard: 1: Hire a big shot trainer. Do what they say. 2: Hire a big shot nutritionist. Do what they say. 3: Get paid 7-figures to make training your full time job 5: Congratulations, you're now shredded
I never click on vids that pop into my feed. But this movie comes out here (in New Zealand) may 19th and I'm VERY much looking forward to it! Excellent work and great video. Thanks for including all the photos and random clips :)
Man I loved every minute of this. In film but recently did my knee doing sports, even though I work hard to stay fit, it happens. But it totally sucks, and a wakeup call at 36, and now I'm even more about injury prevention. The bands for rehab has been amazing, thanks for sharing!
Hey Magnus, amazing work over there, Alex looked HUGE on screen! Did you two decide to jump on T or smth else to improve his results? No hate, just to be transparent. Keep up the great work!
I don't think Magnus would approve of his clients doing "short cuts". He seems a good and honest guy. Remember, Hollywood celebrities have plenty of time to rest, obtain high quality foods and a team of make up artists to maximize their looks
@@joshua6792 its also their job so they just have more time in general, its not like they are working a 40-60 hour work week then doing this on the side
@@CM-tl4tn it’s possible he took something “extra”. But with time and resources, his physique is achievable naturally. He has always been a lean guy anyway.
@@Leo6933 But that's the problem, they always claim it's done in a matter of months, a year at most. In reality, this takes many years to do naturally even with great genetics.
Thank you so much for sharing your work. I was easily motivated to continue my body sculpting journey after watching The Northman. Your insights and guidance are valuable. 🙏
To anyone wondering if the Northman is worth going to see...it is! One of the most original movies in years. Definitely Alex's best performance yet.

Now I saw Northman, and I remember Alex from HBO Generation Kill - the guy was always in good shape and his body is not too crazy for someone who is in good shape, trained hard and looked after himself. Some of the Hollywood folks are definitely juicing
Most are juicing. He was probably juicing. It’s kinda necessary for extreme transformations in short time frames, so it’s not a criticism, just part of the process.
@@jizzlemack9927 But... you then have the coaches and the actors promoting themselves talking about random exercise routines and silly diets. That, i believe, deserves criticism. Because it is a lie.
You’re definitely right- but let’s not forget that stuff isn’t some miracle drug that’ll turn a lazy slob into a stud, it’ll just make the results from the work come faster.
@berzerkr blitz Absolutely. I know from person experience, I’ve done it natural and I’ve done it juiced to the gills, and the difference isn’t as huge as a lot of people seem to believe. It’s a big improvement for sure, but there’s a sentiment nowadays that EVERYONE who’s lean with some muscle is juicing. The only reason I’d assume this guy did was because of the time frame required for a part in a movie.
No shit xD
You and Alexander work TOO well together. His look in the film was INSANE
Thank you!
Lol he is not natural in this film at all
It would be interesting to see one of these outlets to be honest about these things for once. But that won't sell stretch bands I guess.
@@bojangprodoktschns5428 A lot of these actors who get a little ‘specialized training’ are under contract so even they wanted to be candid, they probably can’t, I love Alexander but I’m I just a bit skeptical
@@MrHouloul what are you even on? Do you just copy paste this to random videos?
Just saw ge movie in the cinema. FANTASTIC MOVIE!
@magnus I saw your name in the ending credits. You must be truly proud of yourself. Alexander looked amazazazing!!
Mid-40's and I bet he never looked that good in his life.
A testament to his dedication and your work Magnus.
Even as a computer nerd who used to workout, its lovely to see all the classic exercises still being used and how relaxing this is on the mind afterwards. Good luck to everyone who gets involved with it!
In the cinema it was amazing, you need a good sound system to get the best out of it.
Robert Eggers movies just have amazing and thunderous sound.
Why 'used to'? Why not start again?
After watching the movie and seeing just that first action scene with adult amleth I was actually stunned at how awesome he looked because it was so accurate to a berserker and he was such a beast
yea he def looked good, not quite natural I'm sure but still
I can't wait to watch this movie
I go to the gym 5 days a week and my jaw dropped when I saw him walking with his gigantic shoulders flexed out in the beginning. Its when they're pillaging a village and he's double fisting his weapons. He put on between 20-25 lbs for this role.
How is this "accurate" to a 'berserker' or viking? Did vikings eat 5 meals a day? Probably not. Did they do very balanced workouts which were not connected to fighting? Also no. Were their looks even that relevant to them? Also highly unlikely.
@@geronimo8159 The beauty standard for Viking age Scandinavians was actually pretty high for the period, we know from both English and Scandinavian accounts that they were better groomed than the Anglo-Saxons and the Franks, there are loads of viking age burials and finds that include combs, brushes and even an instrument for clearing ones ears. When you consider the fact that wealth was always, especially for viking age warriors, portrayed through material culture like weapons and armour, it's pretty safe to say that they did care about how they looked.
Nice video man. I wish I could do all these exercises, but I am still really fat and unflexible. Have been trying so hard recently though. Going to gym every day, and I got great meal plan from Next Level Diet. I hope I will slim down fast so I can start with calisthenics. I believe in myself, that's the most important thing IMO.
weight loss is predominantly about diet.
keep going man you got this
Good luck man dont complicate it and find yourself some good shows or games to play when you crave food.
You got this brother! Keep at it. You are on the path :)
Just wanna give you support man! Keep exercising and keep up with your healthier diet. If you ever falter in your faith come back to these comments and know that complete strangers are happy to see you succeed!
Also try some yoga (like Alex in the video!). Not only does it help with your inflexibility, it can be pretty intense depending on the regiment you take. Good luck!!!
Alexander's physique in this is absolute ridiculous.
PEDs 💉 coupled with diet and workout
finally (my curiosity were killing me). thank you for the free explanations.
nice to see you are making your name in the products industry as well.
I hope your channel grows bigger and bigger. congrats
Thank you!
@@magnus_method you lying tho. what was he taking?
I really love the workout routines this guy gives and I can’t wait to implement them. However, to all the average physique guys out there that might be gullible and stumble upon this video. You’re not gonna look like that in weeks, or even months. Keep at it and maybe you will in years. Even if you don’t you will be healthier and look like a beast in your own right.
To all those average physique guys, you already look like a beast! Working out is a tribute to what your body can do
You ever heard of noob gains? If u have good genetics you will definitely look good in a few months. You are clueless af
sipping on the kool aid
if we all had access to Hollywood lighting, special effects, movie editing software and make up artists who can shade and tone average abs into sculpted gods, We sure could look like that in no time.
You wanna look like that, it's gonna take more than good food, good sleep, and a good program
This was very fun. Please more videos on his training and nutrition. Thanks
And pharmaceuticals
I like that you have also included the rest times for the exercises. Really simple, concise and to the point. Thanks Magnus.
come to islam, and stop being utilitarian liberals or whatever the moral system or ideology you have. Islam is the only metaphysical and moral system that doesn't generate contradictions. Learn more through sheikh like othman ibn faroq or mohammed hijab or free books (Divine reality and the mirage of atheism, the Burhan, etc) ... and hopefully you guys will understand that this life is made temporary and ment to follow our desires, but to worship the necessary existence, self-sufficient, etc, who created us (through evolution or whatever the theory). There is only one god (Allah). He is not a contingent existence. He is unique and has no partners. He descended revelations to prophets such as Moses, Abraham, Jesus, and finally Mohammed peace be upon them all. Islam structures your life so your din, intellect, family and property is protected. It makes sense and its a way of life that will make you happier as a consequence. Paradise is for ever, this life is temporary, don't be blind. Its just a reminder for those who reflect.
@@MrHouloul Where the hell did that come from lol? Do you even realise there a many religions on this planet who all think the exact same thing about their teachings, their system and their god? Every or atleast most different religion thinks they are correct and other ways to live your life is wrong. What makes your religion so special or different? I heard this kind of thing a million times from different religious organisations. At the end of the day be glad you believe your own bullshit about allah and your religion, because no one else does. I can also suggest to stop crying in comments about things no one wants to hear, if you hate the freedom and the lifestyle of the
West/Europeans then stop going websites we have created, stop indulging in our culture and our creations, stop going where you know you will be offended. Or better realise your religion doesn't mean anything and live life on your own terms. Either way, get lost.
@@vitaliyivanov7768 What makes your religion so special or different? thats a good question. Islam is the only logical metaphysical system. It respects the fundamental principles of logic. God has to be omniscient, self-sufficient, and be independant. Catholics and protestants believe god is jesus, which is a big contradiction, so the principle of identity is not respected, done. You cant have someone who don't now be omniscient. a human has a biginning and an end. Jesus prostrated to god. he cant be god, his nature is limited. You cant be unlimitted and limitted at the same time unless you're schizophrenic. Judaism in the story of the oven of akhnai, rabis debated god and god has apologised for his mistake... So their god is Not omniscient, another contradiction... Hindus are polytheists, so how can you have a gods that are limited and not limited at the same time, same contradiction with chriastianism... How can you worship a cow or animals or whatver contingent existence it is. Atheist are materialist, so they believe matter is god, but matter does not have will to create and its not independant, its a contengent existence, so contradictory to the definition of god. Only islam is clear about its monotheistic belief. And only belief that respects the fundamental principles of logic. So, NO, not every religion are the same, islam is above all religions.
Skarsgard got massive for this role. Hard to believe just a few months of working out with kettlebells did that.
Why's that hard to believe it's his job. If you have a personal Cook, Trainer and probably a Masseuse you'll look like whatever you need to as well.
@@emotionalintelligence776 Well he is pretty old, 45. You don't build muscle as easily at that age since as men get older their testosterone naturally decreases. Also, putting on muscle mass takes a long time. The amount of muscle he gained in such a short amount of time is sus.
@@juniordev2570 Dude if you believe thats all you can do with ample money and support then I won't waste my time. There's a big world out there for those who have their eyes and their minds open.
@@emotionalintelligence776 And then there's people who have their brains functioning
Great Video! You can hear the passion in your voice for your job!
Yes! Thank you!
The movie was brilliant and bold. Alexander was a beast! His figure commanded those fight scenes.
Magmus, I played (multiple) sports most of my life (HS varsity and college, etc ...), Powerlift (until life got screwed up the last few yrs, had 40inch quads, etc... and training to break a bench press record (max bench was 425lbs, before the aforementioned)) and more. So of course I realize not everyone powerlifts (or honestly is "cut out" for it). With that said, I didn't like your lifting suggestions, they're two light and not enough sets and you didn't mention "negatives" which greatly enhance size and more importantly Strength. Though for the "average person" and "newbie", it was ok and appropriate to start out with. And, I do highly appreciate the need for agility training and the abilities of agility & range of motion - these techniques you showed I did like and suggest others to listen to you on them. And Remember y'all, Form IS Everything! If you want to gain max results, size, strength, agility and Avoid Injuries - Form is Everything!! ... If its too heavy for you to workout with (including "maxing out") while keeping good form; then do Not Force it - work up to it!!
What are "negatives"?
He looked SPECTACULAR. Truly one of his c r a z i e s t most riveting roles. So damn captivating. ⚡
So overjoyed to see the man that Skarsgard spoke of in his hilarious“cheat day” story! Also, James McAvoy’s retelling of his training for Split was great.
James McAvoy was ripped in that movie!!! He was in Glass too.
@@ericwilliams538 yeah I wasn’t surprised that McAvoy named Magnus as his trainer for that project. It’s funny to think of the connections behind the camera.
This is impressive. We sometimes forget all the people and experts that go into prepping an actor for a role.
And PEDs
I dont. Cus i dont even know how much work is involved. But its insane how much work gets involved.
@@kingmuhu it’s not as much as you’d think then a syringe 💉 is involved. You can basically be more lenient on your diet and working out and you’ll still end up extremely ripped
@@SSTVdd ehhhhh this isn’t true.
@@samwroblewski748 if he did a program as bad as outlined in this video then peds are involved for sure lol
Magnus really helped get Alex into the right shape for Northman! Amazing movie.
I am obsessed with your channel! It really helps me challenge myself with my workouts.
happy to hear that!
Wait wait wait let me guess... Chicken, broccoli and rice 5 times a day and working out 2 hours per day 7 days per week?
Either that or tuna and ramen, brah.
Jealous jabronis up in here
2 hours a day isn’t remotely close to enough to achieve half that transformation
@@MeowingWhale Lol what the amount of time you train doesn't really determine what your results are gonna be. You're gonna make more progress training 1 hour a day than 2...
Yeah! And he gained 30 lbs of lean muscle in six weeks! Completely realistic!
I found Magnus when looking up Alex's program for Tarzan and never looked back, I wish I could train with him for a month
Wow the first time I saw Alex was in True Blood and to see his body transformation is extraordinary. Two thumbs up for him. Yeah and to you too for his training 🔥💪🏽
"Alex", you guys old buddies? Lol.
What money can do! Incredible...
@@garethjohnstone8662 yeah, we are 2,000 years old 😂🤣 haven’t you see True Blood⁉️👍🏼
@@oczhaal also true. But he has the money well “he can break as many eggs as he wants”
@@jrbserious87 : * 1 thousand, Eric is only 1 thousand years old. Contrary to Godric, for example. ^^
You did a great job! And Alex is such a hardworking person, I admire his determination! Thank you for sharing his training. Can't wait to watch The Northman, the premiere is on April 29 in my country.
You're in for a treat. The movie is fantastic in every way.
Can you give a detailed schedule, doses, what was on /off , what on discontinuation etc?
This is the real workout they won't admit
@@gregoryking4796 Exactly. Whatever this video says, it's a half truth at best. They probably had little time between Skaarsgard's prior production and this to get the body. It's the same all over Hollywood. It ain't five meals and kettle bells or regular gym training.
@@thevideorium2665 right and the ENTIRE purpose of this video is to get the trainer more clientele
I have only two criticisms of the film:
1. The draugr fight shouldn't have been played off as fake, since none of the other mystical elements were in such a blatant way.
2. Although we don't know much about Slavic religions, we know enough to have made Olga's character more authentic (e.g. invoking Morana, Veles, Stribog etc instead of "the earth" or "the north wind").
Other than that it was really great.
Super pumped to see alex skarsgard in this movie, him and his brother's are some of my favorite actors currently.
cool!
Gosh, I've been wasting my time with heavy compound lifts for years. Instead, I should have done light weights in medium rep ranges for six weeks! No wonder I've seen so little progress putting on weight.
He is on the sauce, bro.
What would be medium reps ?
@@BruceWayne-de4gm around 10-12 reps is medium I suppose. Below 5 would be low. Above 15 would be high.
Just to be sure, my comment was all sarcasm : ) This guys' advise goes against everything I've seen for building lean muscle.
@@Dawarlord34 tomato, mustard?
It's so nice to get actual content, instead of just random workout clips (without any explanation) like in many other "Train like Xxx" videos. Thank you for that.
You did a great job & are a beast yourself! Will def check out more from your program.
yes he explained it very good
You did a great job with Alexander. The guy looks like an absolute BEAST
yes he does!
Both of you did an excellent job
Alex's body in the final scene of the movie was insane. Honestly didn't know a person that looks like Alex could possibly get that big without special effects. Good shit man.
U never seen anybody in the gym or a bodybuilder? Wtf
Special affects = PEDS
You got you a Subscriber for Life. I'm overwhelmed
Great film Eggers did an amazing job.
the footage of this movie is so epic!
Damn, if I win the lottery, I'm getting a personal trainer.
Genuine question. Why is this exercise selection preferable to standard bodybuilding and then add all this rotator/hip stuff at the end? Why not just focus completely on muscle building first and then focus completely on the rotators and hips?
Just saw the “The Northman” for opening night and Alex’s physique was TOP NOTCH! Will easily steal awards in 2022 but the preparation you gave him months before that you’ve been keeping everyone informed about easily showed. Was super impressed before the film was released but on screen was a totally different monster! Great work, look forward to more of your clients absolutely crushing on screen 👏🏼🎥🍿
“Easily steal awards” what movie did you see? It was all over the place and paced terribly
@@cosborne06 You clearly don't watch arthouse movies, or maybe you just don't enjoy them. This movie was amazing and will 100% win a few Oscars. His last movie won a very competitive Oscar despite it being much much less of a mainstream movie than this was, and this one is likely to win more.
@@ainmon5875 to be fair Oscars don't mean a damn thing anymore. If you like the movie great, but there are still objective flaws
@@cosborne06 pleb
@@cetus835 I'd like to hear about these objective flaws. The only issue I had with the movie was a single scene where I struggled to understand a few of the words.
Great Job Magnus 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Man you trained him to be a bare wolf! Awesome job bro! I loved this movie so much, Alexander has to win awards for this very believable Viking persona!
he did a great job training him
I have the exact same height and build as Alex Skarsgard, I always felt my ribcage was tiny, but seeing him being appreciated for his physique makes me feel much better about my own. Us ectos need our rest days.
Damn!!!! His shoulders look freaking monstrous!!!! I've been complimented on my shoulders but damn!!!! Dude is definitely ripped in this movie!!
Just saw the movie. Extremely bad ass! Dude is ripped
So proud!! 🤩
Thank you!!
Thanks for participating in The Northman
It's a fantastic movie
a lot of celebrity trainers do super weird exercises that really don't add any training value so I'm glad that you stick with what works!!
Also Skarsgard looks great!! Super intimidating
Where are the compound movements??? This video has 1 exercise that’s decent for putting on some muscle.
@@lahorimunda18 compound movements are great i agree
was already hyped for this movie but it is only now i realize that the Northman is played by the one and only Eric Northman. too perfect
haha yes!
Both you& Mr. Skarsgard did a fantastic job! This was extremely impressive and just reveals the amount of dedication and perseverance actors must have in order to prepare for a film and also the amazing trainers that help achieve what is required.
You did such an amazing job! Mr. Skargard did a phenomenal job becoming his character; I believed I was watching a season in this characters life.
Alex plays the best Vikings 👍Awesome job on getting him ready!
yeah :)
Alex is such a legend!

Wow just so the trailer for this. Love Robert Eggers and this cast is amazing so will defnitely see it in the cinema soon. Amazing you train all these top actors. He looks insane in the movie clips. Must be a dedicated guy whos commmited to the role and physical transformation. I was wondering does he take any PEDs. I know every at the moment in Holiday is getting called out for not mentioning that they often take PEDs prior to this sort of muscular transformation. What do people think?
He def takes PED. As a bodybuilder myself I can safely say that if you wanted this physique you would need to work atleast 8-10 years, but this guy and every other Hollywood actor can do these kind of physiques in a year… Still alot of work done, But it is not those exercises or the 5 meals a day which made this. I would even say that some people with bad genetics would not be able to become that big in their lifetime.
this trainer did good to Mr Alexander for a short period of time. thumbs up bro. need to see the movie
Honestly Alexander Traps were the best I've ever seen in my life.
Oh crap! I'm too late. Your Long Bands are sold out... I like the fact that they are not a rubber. Any suggestion where else I could get similar to those? Thanks
Does performing farmer's walks at the start of the set not compromise grip strength on the following exercises (potentially failing on grip before properly exhausting back and bicep muscles), or was the aim to increase forearm strength/size? Also, if this is Alex's genuine back day and the aim (as per the reduced cardio) was size, shouldn't there be more heavy compounds? Not criticising, just surprised and genuinely interested.
Farmers walks seemed to be the main heavy compound movement. The exercise works your entire back, arms and shoulders isometrically in the same manner as a deadlift would.
Not that it may necessarily work, not for everyone at least, but the general idea behind the concept is that you’re doing farmer’s walls at the beginner with as much weight as you can manage so that you burn your arms out before anything else.
.
The belief is that your muscles build back harder and bigger if they’re already exhausted when your main exercise begins. You’re adding far more stress, and therefore Micro-Tears in your muscles, by burning them out first and then doing your exercises, than if you just did the exercises.
.
Like I said though, it’s certainly not a scientifically established concept, and it widely differs from person to person. One person may do it every day and see insane results within 3 months.
Another person might do this and end up in the hospital.
dude good job man, amazing movie dude looked like a beast!!
I was curious about his training after seeing the trailer
Him scaling up the wall with the axe looked so insane, dude was shredded
Massive transformation. Congrats
That's a good program, lots of complex dynamic movements and the results are incredible.
the results are crazy!!
Hell yes! You nailed it and I thank you and Alex for your hard work in producing this epic movie! It’s such a shame it’s not doing that well at the box office.. if there was ever a movie that didn’t deserve to bomb.. it’s this movie. Take it as no reflection for the quality of this movie. I personally blame the marketing team.. the hype for this movie was all over the place a few months ago and then almost nothing right after. They needed to follow that initial push up with more trailers and then they just didn’t. Did marketing run out of money or something?
Berserkers were a real thing in northern tribes. Basically the best warriors with religious fanaticism & drugs to numb out the pain & go into the "enraged state". During the roman conquest particularly past the Rhineland berserkers were most feared by the legions & kept the legions on one side of the Rhine until the rhine itself pseudo invaded with many tribes like the vandals, goths, alemmani etc
Meekus has come a long way from that freak gasoline fight accident.

Well done Magnus!
This is sort of my dream job as a personal trainer... Someday...
hope you reach your dream job!
Need a part 2. You do great work with these actors. You barely scratched the surface of the exercises that got him the Northman body. What I want to know is how he got such big traps, what were the exercises? Thanks
You forgot to mention the secret sauce you added to the chicken and broccoli…
Excellent; Positive; Comprehensive; Focused; Genuine;
Wow..how you're able to sculpt a physique. Your videos are very professional and I appreciate the seriousness of safety..always..
safety is so important!
In this life not too many things absolutely amaze me anymore, The mental and physical transformation you made is nothing shy of God-like, by far the most believable and incredibly real looking action film I've ever seen, you nailed this role my friend, Thank you for your commitment and performance!!🤘🤘
Interesting first part of the video. Learned some cool things about how actors prepare for a role. Other than that, the back workout was waaaay to easy to put that much muscle mass in that short time-frame. The lat-pulldowns were the only proper exercise there that builds muscle. Everything else was just warmup, stretching, core and some gimmick that I don't see the use for it.
This movie is awesome and Alex looked and performed amazingly
How to get ripped like Skarsgard:
1: Hire a big shot trainer. Do what they say.
2: Hire a big shot nutritionist. Do what they say.
3: Get paid 7-figures to make training your full time job
5: Congratulations, you're now shredded
Hey buddy you are missing something here.
Step 4 has to be hard work, right?
Right?
@@sincetomorrow Sure, buddy, but that's just part of step 1 ("do what they say.") If you have a good trainer, they'll work you hard.
I never click on vids that pop into my feed. But this movie comes out here (in New Zealand) may 19th and I'm VERY much looking forward to it! Excellent work and great video. Thanks for including all the photos and random clips :)
Man I loved every minute of this. In film but recently did my knee doing sports, even though I work hard to stay fit, it happens. But it totally sucks, and a wakeup call at 36, and now I'm even more about injury prevention. The bands for rehab has been amazing, thanks for sharing!
Really efficient work outs and he explains each exercise extremely well and in layman’s terms for anyone to understand it
Just saw the movie, you created a monster
I would LOVE more videos detailing diet/training for Alex!
Hey Magnus, amazing work over there, Alex looked HUGE on screen! Did you two decide to jump on T or smth else to improve his results? No hate, just to be transparent. Keep up the great work!
They'll never be open about this. These videos are always pointless without the "extras" that are doing most of the work.
I don't think Magnus would approve of his clients doing "short cuts". He seems a good and honest guy. Remember, Hollywood celebrities have plenty of time to rest, obtain high quality foods and a team of make up artists to maximize their looks
@@joshua6792 its also their job so they just have more time in general, its not like they are working a 40-60 hour work week then doing this on the side
@@CM-tl4tn it’s possible he took something “extra”. But with time and resources, his physique is achievable naturally. He has always been a lean guy anyway.
@@Leo6933 But that's the problem, they always claim it's done in a matter of months, a year at most. In reality, this takes many years to do naturally even with great genetics.
Is the film called “The Northman”? Or is it “The Norseman” said with a lisp?
Thank you so much for sharing your work. I was easily motivated to continue my body sculpting journey after watching The Northman. Your insights and guidance are valuable. 🙏
So excited to know Magnus is real! (I saw the interview with Stephen Colbert where Alexander mentioned that Magnus is his trainer)
yes awesome insights given here!
