Lenny Kravitz Shares High-Rep Workout and Explains Why He Trains in Leather

The Men’s Health cover published a detailed 50/35/21/14 rep routine on July 14 and framed Kravitz’s case that his stage-ready physique is built without peptides or testosterone.

Overview

  • Men’s Health on July 14 ran a cover interview and workout breakdown in which Kravitz and longtime trainer Dodd Romero listed specific exercises and a 50/35/21/14 rep scheme for multiple moves aimed at dense, low-bulk muscle and high core volume.
  • Kravitz said he trains 45 to 60 minutes five to six days a week, uses hundreds of abdominal reps per session, and adapts workouts while touring by working with Romero remotely from hotel gyms.
  • He defended working out in leather, denim and boots by saying those are his stage clothes and let him “fit in a workout anytime, anywhere,” and he uses a 28-inch pant as a simple, analog fitness gauge.
  • Kravitz repeatedly denied using performance-enhancing therapies, telling the magazine his results are natural and that he does not use peptides, human growth hormone, or testosterone.
  • The coverage follows a 2024 viral leather-pants gym clip and has prompted wide media attention that highlights his decades-long coaching relationship with Romero and the touring-friendly, high-repetition training philosophy behind his lean, agile look.
