Snipes is known to always be in phenomenal shape especially whenever he was prepping for a movie, and his workout plans include weight training, calisthenics, Pilates, stretching, kicking, boxing, yoga and sleep. Calisthenics is a very dynamic exercise filled with rhythmical movements for increasing flexibility and body strength. With only the use of your body weight for resistance, you’ve got to jump, bend, swing, twist and kick. Not only does this sort of exercise improve your muscles, it also helps develop balance. Even after his stint in prison for tax evasion in 2010, many counted out Snipes, citing that he would probably end out of shape. But on the contrary, Snipes still kept his body in the best shape ever and still does to this day.
