Magnus Method

Beast

Get started today!

Welcome to the official BEAST program that I used to get my man James McAvoy in killer shape for the movie Glass! If you haven’t seen the results yet, check out the coverage his body got in Men’s Journal, Men’s Health, and GQ. Over 6 weeks you will be building a lean, muscular, and highly-versatile physique. We do both weights and conditioning with a focus on building a solid core. Check out the FAQ below to learn more about the program! Share your progress with me by tagging #magnusmethod
