We reveal how to get the enviable physiques of the stars.

This week:This week: Tom Cruise's torso.

Tom Cruise keeps active: 'Sea-kayaking, caving, fencing, treadmill, weights, rock-climbing, hiking'...

At 53, Tom Cruise is still in good shape. The Top Gun legend admits that he trains rigorously to keep in shape for film roles, often putting in four to five hours a day of intense workouts, including dancing, boxing and circuit training.

Variety is the key to his enthusiasm for exercise.

'I'm constantly training for one thing or the other,' the Golden Globe winner says. 'Sea-kayaking, caving, fencing, treadmill, weights, rock-climbing, hiking, I jog, I do so many different activities.'

What to try:

The long-arm weighted crunch will really target your abdominal muscles. Lie on your back, feet flat on the floor and knees bent. Hold one weight or a bottle of water with both hands. Extend your arms straight back behind your head.

Engage your abdominals and crunch your rib cage towards your pelvis, so that you lift your upper body and arms carrying the weight off the floor.

Perform 12-15 repetitions.
