About

Jacked Kumail refers to pictures of actor and comedian Kumail Nanjiani shirtless and very muscular which he shared on his Instagram. He worked on his muscular figure in preparation for his role in Marvel's The Eternals. The pictures shocked social media users who did not expect Nanjiani to look that way. Nanjiani was also praised for being honest about his process of getting that fit.

Origin

On December 16th, 2019, Kumail Nanjiani posted two shirtless pictures of himself to Instagram, showing off the body he had attained in preparation for The Eternals.[1] In the caption, he wrote his thanks to those who helped him, and he acknowledged it would not have been possible without the resources and time he was afforded by being a celebrity.



I never thought I’d be one of those people who would post a thirsty shirtless, but I’ve worked way too hard for way too long so here we are. You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. I found out a year ago I was going to be in Marvel’s Eternals and decided I wanted to transform how I looked. I would not have been able to do this if I didn’t have a full year with the best trainers and nutritionists paid for by the biggest studio in the world. I’m glad I look like this, but I also understand why I never did before. It would have been impossible without these resources and time. So big thanks to @grantrobertsfit who started working with me at the beginning of the year and made me understand true physical pain for months and months. Then, once we started shooting, a massive thanks to @davidhigginslondon and his team (@ellispartridge, @thebeardypt, @tomcheesemanfitness) for training me almost every day and making me strong, limber and injury free. I can almost touch my toes now. (And thank you for forcing me to do cheat meals David.) Matthews Street Catering for their delicious and healthy meals. And finally, the biggest thanks goes to @emilyvgordon for putting up with me complaining and talking about only working out and dieting for the last year. I promise I’ll be interesting again some day. #thirstyshirtless (Photo by @markupson.)

>people talking about how he did good saying it was unrealistic for most men to get this muscular

Have you dumbasses never been to a gym? Like, sure you aren't going to reach that level in a snap, but there is the little thing we call motivation. Maybe if these twitter warriors had some of that, they'd realize they can get muscular like him.
