Will Smith has been going hard in the gym — and it's paying off.
On Sunday, the 53-year-old actor shared an update on his fitness and health journey, posting a montage of his hardcore workouts on social media. In the clip, the Bad Boys for Life star appears strong and fit as he lifts weights, does pull ups and runs.

Fans of the actor raved in the comments about his progress.
"I knew he was gon lose that weight 👏," one person wrote. Another user added, "KING WILL 👏👏🔥🔥🔥."
One person even left a comment incorporating Smith's motivational line from his film The Pursuit of Happyness: "Don't ever let someone tell you, you can't do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you got to protect it. People can't do something themselves, they want to tell you you can't do it. You want something, go get it. Period."
