Deadpool Martial Arts Workout Routine
In this segment of the Superhero Training series, we are covering the martial arts workout inspired by Deadpool!
This week has been nothing but a hype trip after watching the premier of Deadpool and Wolverine. I think the best way I can wear the hype off is by bringing them two to the website.
Side note: After the ComicCon announcements, I doubt that this hype is going away anytime soon so.. Expect a Doctor Doom workout sometime soon. If you know, you know.
Since we already covered the full Deadpool breakdown, we can go straight into the workout routine in this article!
And in case you missed the breakdown, you can check it out here.
