The Hollywood star, who welcomed his fourth child with Blake in February, is clearly very focused on getting into shape so that he will be able to rival his Deadpool 3 costar, Hugh Jackman.

Ryan is known for how competitive he can be on social media, often teasingly challenging his wife Blake over Instagram or Twitter. Find out all about their sweet relationship in the video below.
