Parker Young has just gotten a script that calls for his character, high school jock
Ryan Shay of ABC’s popular Wednesday night comedy, Suburgatory, to take off his
shirt. That’s all the motivation the 24-year-old actor needs to head to his CrossFit
gym and ramp up the workouts. Young has always been athletic—captain of his
varsity football team in high school while maintaining a straight A average—and
admits that he needs regular exercise to burn off energy. But, showing off his body
in front of millions of viewers from week to week has added a whole new reason to
stay in peak condition. “I can definitely tell that my motivation varies depending
on whether or not I know that I have a shirtless scene,” he confesses. “Being on a
TV show where my shirt comes off and I have to play this high school kid, I have to
be aware of how my workouts are affecting my body and how my diet is affecting
my body because I have to look a certain way.”
So how does an actor maintain a body worthy of showing off on camera?
