First Published: October 17, 2011 4:25 PM EDT Credit: Mens Health NY., N.Y. -- Caption Henry Cavill on the cover of Mens HealthEye candy alert! Hunky Henry Cavill is flaunting his biceps in a skintight t-shirt on the November issue of Mens Health. Very hot! Its hard to believe a guy with that physique was ever known as Fat Cavill. But, its true The Immortals star reveals to Mens Health that his classmates back in England used to tease him. Kids are cruel. Whatever. I was fat, adds Cavill. Thankfully, Cavills chubby days are in the past. For the past few years, hes made women drool as the dashing Duke of Suffolk in The Tudors. Now, hes ripped onscreen as a Greek warrior in Immortals and is currently filming the ultimate superhero role as Superman in the reboot Man of Steel. Yet, it wasnt until the 28-year-old started training for Immortals a few years ago that he finally stopped thinking of himself as pudgy. Cavill spent hours lifting weights alongside the films other ripped warriors. There was a sense of team and camaraderie, he tells Mens Health, adding, We all sweated together, we all bled together, we all ate the same highly inefficient food and just kept on going and supported each other. Right after wrapping Immortals, he began training to become the man of steel. Cavill was determined to suit up sculpted and sexy. So, to achieve that goal, he did a training routine known as the tailpipe. Its a 100-rep workout that burns fat and emphasizes both the exercises and recovery. After you finish an exercise, then you take eight controlled breaths in and out before you start the next exercise.
