Hollywood actor Michael Fassbender reveals he uses Aussie Influencer Kayla Itsines’ fitness app

Hollywood actor Michael Fassbender has revealed he uses Aussie Influencer Kayla Itsines’ app SWEAT to keep fit.

The Irish actor, 46, told Men’s Health his wife Alicia Vikander introduced him to the fitness app.

‘My wife introduced me to the [app]. I was like “sure I will try that how hard can it be” and it’s hard,’ he said.

Michael said the app includes cardio based workouts and they can be challenging.

‘It’s hard, it’s cardio based body weight stuff. But if I’m travelling around I go to the gym first thing in the morning,’ he added.

SWEAT offers dozens of routines that guide you through squats, planks and lunges to hone your physique – without leaving the house.

Kayla, a South Australian mother-of-two, co-founded the SWEAT app with her ex fiancé Tobi Pearce in 2015.

They launched SWEAT as an ebook, before the company grew into an app-based online community with more than 50 million users worldwide.

The brand swiftly snowballed into the world’s largest online community for women’s fitness, so powerful it increased their bank balance by more than $400million (AUD) in just one year.

In early 2018, Tobi told the Australian Financial Review (AFR) their company’s research showed Kayla’s workouts were undertaken 11 million times in 195 countries throughout 2017.

The former couple, who share daughter Arna Leia, had an estimated net worth of $209million (AUD) each in December 2020, according to the AFR.

In 2021, Kayla’s sale of her company Sweat – formerly known as Bikini Body Guide – to U.S. software giant iFIT propelled her net worth to $164million.

This was enough to place her 39th on the 2021 Young Rich List, just one spot ahead of her business partner and former fiancé – Tobi, who had a similar net worth.
