John Goodman Puts 200-Lb. Weight Loss Transformation on Display
Sacha Baron Cohen’s physique is looking very nice.
In preparation for his new role as Marvel villain Mephisto, the Borat star intensified his workout routine and debuted a toned transformation that surprised even himself.
“In the past, I would’ve thought you needed hour-long sessions,” Sacha told Men’s Fitness UK in an interview published July 24. “But the short sessions made it so much easier to stay consistent—even with the demands of being on set.”
In fact, the 53-year-old—who shares three kids with ex Isla Fisher—revolutionized the way he thinks about exercise, thanks to the help of his trainer Alfonso Moretti.
“My mindset around fitness has definitely evolved,” Sacha continued. “Instead of lying in bed overthinking, and staring at my phone, I get up, jump on FaceTime, and train with Alfonso. It sets a positive tone for the whole day and I don’t even have to look up from my phone!”
And with his signature wit, he added, “I now believe that just 20 to 30 minutes of movement a day can make a real difference—and it’s something anyone can fit into their routine, especially celebrities with personal assistants to do all the boring stuff like shopping and attending friends’ funerals. So, no excuses!”
