SOLE Fitness has released a new guide to help readers follow the intense workout routine used by actor Tom Hardy for 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises.

Salt Lake City, United States, August 8, 2025 -- With its new release, SOLE Fitness details Tom Hardy’s physical transformation as he prepared for his iconic film role as Bane in The Dark Knight Rises. Even thirteen years after the final entry in Christopher Nolan’s acclaimed Batman movie trilogy, SOLE Fitness points to Hardy’s obvious gains as an example of what structured training programs can achieve - revealing his workout plan accordingly.

By implementing the featured exercises into their own routines, SOLE Fitness suggests that readers can replicate the results that Hardy made famous in 2012’s superhero blockbuster. Crucially, the guide demonstrates how the renowned English actor was able to pack on more than 30 pounds of muscle in a matter of months - largely with heavy lifting drills and suitable nutrition.

SOLE Fitness also notes that Hardy’s aims went beyond aesthetics. The role of Bane was physically demanding, calling for a muscular frame that could convincingly overwhelm Christian Bale’s Batman and other characters on screen.

As such, Hardy stuck to reps and exercise combinations that prioritized mass, power, and explosiveness - with full training details listed in the SOLE Fitness guide.

Hardy’s five-day training split mostly involved a sequential focus on building muscles in his chest, arms, legs, core, back, and shoulders. SOLE Fitness then names the key exercises Hardy performed on each set day, ranging from bicep curls and deadlifts to sledgehammer slams, tire flips, and more.

Yet, an oft-overlooked part of structured workout journeys is nutrition - which is why SOLE Fitness also examines Hardy’s food intake together with target calories. Readers are encouraged to consider these insights as they tailor their own fitness routine to match Hardy’s in pursuit of a Bane-like frame.

For optimal results, SOLE Fitness recommends that enthusiasts invest in gym equipment that can help match Hardy’s strenuous physical performance. Its own retail store features several suitable products, with the manufacturer recommending the SW180 Adjustable Dumbbells, SW116 Adjustable Weight Bench, SW111 Olympic Barbell, and others.

Their spokesperson said: “Hardy trained like a beast, but you don’t have to go extreme - train hard, fuel right, and stay the course. At SOLE Fitness, we build high-performance fitness equipment that’s made to last, so you can focus on getting stronger every day.”
