Celebrity Trainer’s Quest: Outsmart Gravity In 20 Minutes Or Less
KEY POINTS
- •Harley Pasternak shared that he strength trains for 20 minutes six days a week at his multiple LA home gyms.
- •He prioritizes recovery now, switching exercises every five days to keep his muscles challenged and avoid boredom.
- •Despite skipping cardio workouts, he maintains 12,000 steps daily to support heart and mental health.
At 51, Harley Pasternak—the guy who’s sweat-dripped on Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, and Robert Pattinson—has a home gym so complicated it makes Avengers’ tech look basic. He works out six days a week for 20 minutes, focusing on tweaky muscle groups like rhomboids (shout out to your upper back feeling seen) and hamstrings with exercises like inverted rows and stiff leg deadlifts. Pasternak does Netflix-binge style reps, starting at 20 and dropping down to 13, throwing in pike planks for core drama. Since his recovery used to be 'pilot episode quick' and now feels like a slow reboot, he alternates exercises every five days, because apparently, muscles get bored faster than anyone streaming the same true crime doc six times. Oh, and 12,000 daily steps keep his heart and sanity alive, proving cardio’s for the faint-hearted.
