However, his success was not pure luck, but dedication.
Most days, Banks starts his day at 4:30 a.m., where he kicks off fast cardio.
For the rest of the day he balances family life with a strength program and finishes it by 8 p.m. at the latest.
He told BarBend, “If I’m really locked down for these shows and prep, I’ll be in bed by 7pm.
“I don’t like to push beyond that because recovery is key.
“Routine is so important.
“I believe a lot of my success comes from what I do every day – adapt and stay focused.”
However, Banks is most notable for his incredible V-shaped physique, evident through his huge back muscles.
And he has now let fans in on his secret workout, which he does twice a week.
It contains:
- Lat pulldowns with straight arms: 4 x 20 reps (moderate weight to warm up)
- Chest Assisted T-Bar Row: 4 x 12 reps (Hard)
- Seated Lat Pulldown: 4 x 12 reps (hard)
- Rack pulls: 3 x 10 reps (super hard)
- Extended row: 4 x ten reps (super hard)

Before competing professionally, Banks was a gifted athlete in high school and then majored in kinesiology in college.
Despite his inclination towards fitness, he admitted that he never wanted to be a bodybuilder.
But in 2017, trainer Terry Reeves “begged” Banks to try.
Since then, the 33-year-old has perfected his craft to become the best in the world.
He said: “We’ve tried to preserve every other part of the body, but once you start exercising to the extreme, everything grows.
“During these months we became more sophisticated.”
During one cut, Banks burned about 2,700 calories per day.
After a ten-week break from competition, he increased it to 3,200 calories.
Most of its nutrient gains come from chicken breast, rice, and broccoli.
He said, “After 10 to 12 weeks, we push that stuff aside.
“It’s based on being the best.
“I’ve never gotten bored with food, so for the past three years I’ve prepared myself and eaten the same things over and over again.”
After his InstagramBanks teased that he would try the Classic Physique division when he retires.
