Harry Styles at the gym looks like Robert De Niro's Max Cady in Cape Fear

'Every man had to go through hell to reach paradise', said Max Cady, and it seems Harry Styles goes through that when he hits the gym.
And thanks to his illustrated torso and arms, the One Direction star shares more than a passing resemblance to the psychotic serial rapist played by Robert De Niro in the Martin Scorsese remake of Cape Fear.
Grunting, sweating and covered in random tattoos, Harry opened up about his fitness habits during One Direction's seven-hour streaming event, 1D Day.

Just like Cady, Styles showed off his array of tattoos from swallows, to butterflies to nails and phrases all over his alabaster skin, but his reasoning for getting them will be a far cry from that of the murderous character.
'I understand, I'm not your type, too many tattoos,' Cady says in the film. 'Thing is, there isn't much to do in prison except desecrate your flesh.'
Luckily, the popstar won't be hanging onto the underside of a car anytime soon, what with his millionaire status, mentally stable personality, and penchant for the romantic comedy genre, which means he may not have seen the 1991 horror movie to get any ideas from.

Working out with a personal trainer, the teen hunk proved just how dedicated he is to staying in shape by admitting that he survives on just four hours' sleep a night.
Maximising his potential time in the gym, Harry revealed he likes to work out immediately before hitting the hay, and rises at 5am to squeeze in a spot of gruelling Bikram yoga before heading out on the road with his bandmates.
Speaking about his workout habits while running on a treadmill, he explained: 'It's currently 12.15am. I train for an hour, then go to sleep for four hours.

'Get up again at 5am, have breakfast and go to Bikram yoga and have an espresso afterwards. Easy peasy!'
And the young music megastar is by no means takes things easy during his stints in the gym, with the unique behind-the-scenes video showing him working up a sweat as he lifted a huge weight.
Visibly grimacing as he flexed his biceps, the teen icon showcased the vast collection of body art he has acquired on his chest and torso.

Panting heavily as he struggled with one barbell, he joked: 'I'm training to be Thor.'
But Harry proved he didn't take himself too seriously throughout his gruelling session, and poked fun at himself as he danced away on the treadmill, flailing his arms in the air as he pounded an imaginary pavement.
The behind-the-scenes video - shot during the Australia and New Zealand leg of the group's Take Me Home world tour - also showed the singer partaking in a press-up challenge with One Direction bandmate, Liam Payne, who seemed equally devoted to staying in shape as Harry.

Explaining the motivation behind the group's gym visits, Liam said: 'Being out there jumping around like a lunatic each night, and we're 126 shows in now, it's quite crazy.
'So staying fit is a huge deal. We've got the stadium tour next year and there's a 100-metre catwalk that we're going to have to run down so we have to keep in shape otherwise we just won't be on it.'
Boxing alongside a trainer in the gym, Liam seemed to be in equally good shape, and wore a white vest to proudly display his bulging biceps in all their glory.
Fitness buffs: Harry and Liam seemed to be taking their challenge rather seriously as they got to work
