Like her new co-star Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot is bulking up as she prepares to take on the role of Wonder Woman in Man of Steel 2.

Gadot posted a photo of herself on her Facebook page, showing off her growing muscles. In the photo, the actress is seen flexing her bicep, captioning the photo, "There's nothing like a good workout in the morning... Love it! You?"

Gadot has had to deal with naysayers who weren't happy with the choice with the Man of Steel producers' choice to cast her. The actress has since responded to the criticism.

"I represent the Wonder Woman of the new world," she told Israeli entertainment news source Good Evening with Gai Pines. She was asked about more specific criticism that she's too thin for the iconic role and that Wonder Woman is supposed to be large-breasted.

"Breasts... Anyone can buy for 9,000 shekels and everything is fine," she replied. "Wonder Woman is Amazonian, and historically accurate Amazonian women actually had only one breast. So, if I'd really go 'by the book,' it'd be problematic."

She added that she is working on a serious exercise regimen that includes kickboxing, Kung Fu, Jujutsu, Brazilian and swords.

Robert "Maximus" MacDonald, owner of Gym Jones, said that he is training Gadot in addition to Cavill for Man of Steel 2.

The suit designs for the main characters of Man of Steel 2 are expected to be revealed within the next few weeks.

Man of Steel 2 is scheduled for release in theaters on May 6, 2016.
