Meet Cesaro, fitness enthusiast

Getting your body warmed up and ready for the upcoming rigours of in-ring action is one of the most important aspects of match preparation in the world of professional wrestling and especially in the WWE. After all, your body is your greatest weapon when you’re a professional wrestler.

One of the most popular ways to get the body ready is a variety of push ups. Be it normal push-ups, Hindu push ups, push up planks or any other variety of push ups, it’s the exercise of choice for many superstars.

Popular wrestlers who swear by the push up include the likes of Cesaro – who does them with extra weights – Big E from The New Day, and more.
