Watch Zac Efron Grill Nina Dobrev in a Cryosauna
Efron, whos about to take a turn as serial killer Ted Bundy in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile promises the show to offer insight into his guests athletes and celebrities and their goals through a workout. With Dobrev, the focus is on abs and butt. A routine of band walks, and controlled banded butterflies. ( Mens Health Fitness Director Ebenzer Samuel annotated the routines, noting they missed the controlled part of the exercise. ) Taking direction is important on set and in the gym, Zac.
They go on to rack up sets of pigeon slides, plank slides, kettlebell halos, side bends (Going for Fight Club dips), sled pushes, and hollow body holds. ( Eb says: "Efrons could be sharper if, you know, he did it right and elevated his shoulder blades off the ground. But...hollywood..." ) . Then the Dobrev debriefs Efron on her recent African safari trip over a set of planks.
Efron then helps Dobrev pass a brutal three minutes in a cryosauna by peppering her with lightning round interview questions. ( Eb says: "I wish somebody would play a game like that with me when I was doing cryo." ) Dobrev, it turns out, will take pancakes over waffles. So, Efrons really delivering on that insight into his subjects promise. Its fun. And we can expect a new episode each week.
Well keep Eb at the ready.
