BTS is officially back in action, and not just in the recording studio. As the world’s biggest K-pop boy band prepares for their highly anticipated group comeback in Spring 2026, the members underwent intense physical training when they were working on the album in Los Angeles. With long hours in the studio during the day and equally demanding gym sessions, BTS is rebuilding itself from the ground up, musically and physically.
How BTS members are training amid hectic schedule?
Fitness trainer Ma Sun-ho, who flew to LA to personally work with the group, recently gave fans a rare look into BTS’s workout routine through a behind-the-scenes vlog on his YouTube channel. Known for training top Korean athletes and entertainers, Ma is overseeing the group’s transformation, making sure their comeback isn’t just a musical one, but also a visual upgrade.
The daily schedule is no joke. Ma starts his own day with a jog at 6 a.m., and shortly after, BTS members begin their weight training before heading to the studio. Some even return for a second workout in the evening, showing just how committed they are to the process. The vlog captured moments of the members lifting heavy weights, staying focused, and working through gruelling sets with impressive stamina.
Jungkook, who’s often praised for his athleticism, took over the internet, training shirtless and revealing a well-defined physique. V brought humour to the session by filming part of the workout on Ma’s phone, while RM could be seen cheering on his bandmates, especially Jungkook, as he pushed through each rep.

What sets BTS’s training apart is their dedication to a high-intensity method known as “training to failure.” As explained by celebrity trainer Kirk Myers of LA’s Dogpound Gym during a chat with GQ, this technique involves continuing the workout until muscles are fully fatigued, then adding assisted reps to go slightly beyond that limit. It’s a proven approach for building muscle fast, and BTS is clearly all in.
Another key element in their routine is precision. Instead of rushing through reps, the group performs slow, controlled movements. This not only maximises the muscle engagement but also reduces the risk of injury. Myers emphasised that swinging weights might look cool, but real strength comes from resisting momentum.
Of course, even BTS isn’t immune to physical setbacks. Jungkook, who rarely skips a workout, was advised to take a rest day due to shoulder soreness. Trainer Ma stressed that rest and recovery are part of long-term success, not a sign of weakness.
While the workout sessions are intense, there’s still room for camaraderie. The members often turn their routines into friendly competitions, with V jokingly accusing Jungkook of pretending to be injured. These lighter moments show that BTS continues to thrive on teamwork, both in the gym and in the studio.
The group has been stationed in LA since July, working on their comeback album set to release next spring. And we can't wait for their new look and the album too. It's going to be an another version.
