  • Matthew McConaughey referred Cohen to trainer Alfonso Moretti, who set him on a program of 100 daily push-ups and brief, regular workouts.
  • Rather than extreme calorie restriction, Cohen’s plan relied on a fiber-rich, low-sugar, high-protein diet to drive muscle gains.
  • The pace of his three-week transformation forced Ironheart’s costume team to make two $5,000 adjustments to his Mephisto outfit.
  • On Instagram, Cohen joked about swapping beer for protein shakes and experimenting with Ozempic, private chefs and personal trainers.
