He added that it is not enough for the actress to simply do all the reps. She has to do the workout with ease and fluidity to own it. The actress has learned to stay cool and composed despite any discomfort. Johnson shared,
“Many people make an ugly face when they train, but Scarlett doesn’t really have a painful face unless she’s trying something new and difficult. We’re always pushing her ceiling so anything below that is attainable and easier such as learning stunt choreography on the fly.”
Johansson also focuses on diet for a strong and lean body. For Endgame, she followed time-restricted eating to stabilize her energy. If she had her last meal of the day at 9 p.m., she wouldn’t eat until 9 a.m. the next morning. In the days before the shoot, the star cuts down on carbs, to enhance her cuts.
