Personal Trainer

Joey Ansah, one of the creators of Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fist had asked Mike Moh to bulk up even before officially signing him up for the role in TV series. So, to make sure that he was prepared for the screen presence required from him, he hit the gym six days a week. To ensure that he wasn’t overtraining, he limited his workouts to 1 hour.

He focused on lifting heavy weights over low repetition range and with little rest in between. The aim was to shock his body that would help widen his frame. The focus was on lifting a heavy weight off the ground, which made powerlifting exercises such as squats, deadlifts, and shoulder presses an integral part of his workout.

He had single workout session for squats and deadlifts, another for chest and triceps, and a separate one for back and biceps.

See his workout videos on Instagram here and here.
