Guardians of the Galaxy was a risk for Marvel. Sure, people loved Iron Man, but a story about criminals in space? Featuring a talking racoon? And starring the overweight guy from Parks and Rec?

Gaver was given six months to get Pratt in shape. Not that the actor needed encouragement to hit the gym. “Chris is one of those guys where you have to say ‘Hey let’s take a day off’,” Gaver says. “He definitely wanted it.” In fact, so committed was Pratt to achieving a certain physique that Gaver still talks about him to clients today. “I put two ...

Far from it. “To begin with, it was let’s train every other day, with some days off,” he explains. “After all, you don’t get fit in the gym, you just get beat up in the gym.

Sets:As many as possible Reps:5 Rest:None Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointed slightly out. Sink down as you push your hips back, as if you were sitting in a chair. Go as deep as possible, keeping your weight on your heels, then drive explosively back to standing. After 15 reps, grab your pull-up bar again and repeat all three m...
