Do you remember little Luke from ABC's Modern Family?

For 11 seasons, Nolan Gould portrayed the youngest Dunphy child, and we watched him grow up.

By the end of the series he was a young man, getting into just as many antics as he did as a kid.

But actor Nolan Gould had a lot going on behind the scenes, too. For one thing, Gould graduated high school in a gifted program at the age of 13—almost 9 years ago.

At 22, he's now abs-olutely muscled up.

In order to bulk up, Gould worked with a friend who is a personal trainer.

"I've been working out an hour and a half everyday with my friend Michael who is a personal trainer. We have a really cool socially-distant setup that has allowed me to get fit while also being safe," he said.

"It's been nice. Especially being unemployed in quarantine, having a reason to get up and stay motivated. It's been something that's been very healthy and positive for me in quarantine. It's really changed my outlook."





Gould's one-and-a-half hour routine reportedly consists of an hour of strength training, followed by 30 mins of cardio and core.

He also stressed in order to obtain this, he had to go on a "pretty crazy diet."

"Cutting out alcohol, for me that's actually been very nice. I feel more clear-headed and have been doing as much writing as possible, being in acting class, taking all the steps I can so when the pandemic's over, hopefully I'll be ready to go to work."





Modern Family's final episode aired on April 8 2020, dead smack in the middle of the first major round of shutdowns due to the ongoing pandemic.





Gould said he has a lot of other life goals besides acting.

"A lot of my life goals outside of acting have to do with the outdoors — I know I want to climb big rock walls in Yosemite, and so I want to get fit for that...One of my big life goals is to do the Pacific Crest Trail which is up the coast of America, Mexico to Canada and back."

He also said one day he would like to do his own stunts, and hopefully with this training regimen, Gould will be able to accomplish that.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
