Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio is a renowned American actor and producer known for his good looks and exceptional acting skills. He was born on November 11, 1974 in Los Angeles, California. DiCaprio was given the name Leonardo after his mother, who was pregnant at the time, felt him kick while admiring a Leonardo da Vinci painting at the Uffizi in Florence, Italy. 

When DiCaprio's parents divorced when he was a year old, they agreed to live next door to one other in order for him to have his father's presence in his life, as he spent most of his time living with his mother. After four years at the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies, he attended Seeds Elementary School and then John Marshall High School. DiCaprio has stated that he despises public education and frequently requested that his mother accompany him to auditions in order to help his family's financial position. He dropped out of high school after his third year, but eventually got his GED. 

DiCaprio has stated that as a child, he wanted to be a marine biologist or an actor, but he eventually chose the latter because he enjoyed impersonating characters and people. DiCaprio struggled to get an agent in the start of his career, and when he did, he was advised to change his name to Lenny Williams in order to appeal to an American audience, which he declined. Despite 100 auditions, he stayed jobless for a year and a half. He was disillusioned by this and considered quitting acting, but his father persuaded him not to, and he needed the money to support his mother.

He made his television debut in 1991 with 'Santa Barbara,' and went on to become an international celebrity. He debuted in the film industry with the horror film 'Critters 3' and went on to star in films such as 'This Boy's Life,' 'Titanic,' 'The Great Gatsby’, ‘Inception’, and others. His roles in dramas such as 'Romeo and Juliet,' 'The Basketball Diaries,' and 'Catch Me If You Can,' earned him a lot of praise.

The film 'Titanic' was a turning point in his career as an actor. After 'Titanic,' he got his first Golden Globe Award. DiCaprio's performance in the 1997 catastrophe film is unquestionably one of his best. In the film, DiCaprio's portrayal of the poor artist Jack Dawson grabbed the audience and catapulted him to superstardom. The film earned mostly positive reviews from reviewers and went on to become a massive commercial success. Let me know who else sobbed at the end in the comments section, because I did!

He's worked in a variety of film genres, including romance, historical and period drama, thrillers, and even science fiction. He has won numerous awards, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Drama, Musical, or Comedy for his roles in the films "The Aviator" and "The Wolf of Wall Street," as well as the Academy Award for Best Actor for his work in "The Revenant." Let me know which of his films is your favorite in the comments section below.

He is a humanitarian in addition to being a producer and actor. The fact that he donates to animal and environmental conservation groups demonstrates his compassion for society and the environment. DiCaprio has been described as one of the most vocal celebrities in the fight against climate change. He claims that he has been interested in ecology since he was a child, having grown up watching films on rain forest depletion and the extinction of species and habitats. In 1998, he founded the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to raising environmental awareness. Although it is concerned with all aspects of the environment, it concentrates on global warming, biodiversity preservation, and renewable energy assistance. 

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the best actors in the world, as well as one of the most philanthropic celebrities. I'd love to sit here and speak about his life and the causes he supports for the rest of the video, but his workout mindset, routine, and nutrition plan are just as fascinating as his life. Keep watching because we're about to get into his workout mindset.

Leonardo DiCaprio’s Workout Mindset

Leonardo is one of those actors who isn't scared to alter his physical appearance in order to portray his roles well. If he was asked to gain or lose weight, he would gladly accept the challenge. That is a sign of a brilliant actor, but it is also a sign of a really concentrated man who is mentally strong enough to put his body through such drastic weight changes.

Workouts are the most effective way for Leonardo to rip his body. Leonardo works out for 90 minutes six days a week under the guidance of his personal trainer, Gregory Joujon Roche. Rather from sticking to one workout approach, Leonardo DiCaprio keeps his fitness routine as varied as his acting jobs, alternating between strength training, cardio, and yoga. His typical workout is a three-day-a-week "prison-style" bodyweight strength training routine. Leonardo DiCaprio likes to incorporate cardio into his workout by using a stationary bike or a treadmill in addition to this circuit-based regimen. However, this is not all. On days when he feels particularly motivated, Leonardo DiCaprio adds extra circuits to his program.

When it comes to working out, DiCaprio has a few tricks up his sleeve, which his personal trainer shared for his fans. Let's have a look at what they are.

First, find your ‘Breakout Moments’, which are those times when your body tells you can't do any more but your mind knows you can, so you have to do it anyway. 

Second, each exercise should be done three times with a minimum of 15 reps. 

Third, choose a weight that permits you to complete at least 15 repetitions of each exercise. Four, have at least 60 seconds of rest between each set and rep. 

Five, make sure you're using proper form, as this will give faster results than doing a lot of reps. Six, at the end of the 15th rep, make sure you're exhausted. If not, keep going until you locate your breakout point. 

Seven, if 15 reps is too easy for an activity, increase the number of reps for the next set.
Eight, throughout your training, remember to keep your focus on your safety.

If you start working out, I'm sure his workout recommendations will come in handy, so make sure you follow them. Now it's time to learn more about his workout routine and what we can do to get his attractive figure.
