Hudson Williams just revealed his workout — and it’s basically a holy war for TV’s fattest butt
If you thought Heated Rivalry was only giving plot, romance, and hockey drama, you clearly haven’t met the internet’s #1 investigative unit: queer fans with Wi-Fi, time, and a mission to identify exactly how Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie built those now-legendary hockey cakes.
Well, the case just cracked wide open. Williams pulled the curtain back on his Hudson Williams workout in a new fitness video, listing the exercises he leans on to stay camera-ready: dumbbell flies, lying dumbbell curls, Bulgarian split squats, seated cable rows, tricep extensions, lateral raises, and dragon flags. Translation: pain, sweat, and the kind of effort that makes your mirror whisper, “Congratulations, you are now a thirst trap.”
And while directors might tell actors they don’t need to be “wall-to-wall muscle,” Williams admitted that promise lasted about as long as a gay man’s resolve in a well-lit locker room. He said he looked around at the cast, saw guys who “look like underwear models,” and then saw Storrie — and suddenly he was motivated by the oldest force in human history: competition… and cheek envy. Williams even joked he cut carbs and tried to get as big as possible, because when your co-star is out here serving gluteal excellence, you either rise to the occasion or get left in the dust behind him.
Season 2 goals: “bigger, juicier, thicker”
Williams isn’t easing up for season 2 — which he says is expected to start filming this summer. His goal is to add 10 pounds of muscle, and he described the vibe with the kind of double entendre energy the gays have come to expect: he’ll be doing things that “rip” and “tear” him, and frankly, that sounds like either a workout plan or a deleted scene.
Instead of splitting workouts into classic body-part days, Williams said he prefers full-body training so he hits everything in one go. The plan: 45 minutes to an hour in the gym, consistent work, hypertrophy focus — aka training designed to grow muscle. That’s not just gym talk; it’s essentially the Heated Rivalry brand at this point: build the body, build the tension, build the legend.
And then he said the quiet part loud: Connor Storrie has “the fattest butt I’ve ever seen on a man.” Williams sounded equal parts impressed, amused, and personally threatened — like a man staring at a trophy he intends to steal. He also joked that Storrie probably wants to stop talking about his “beautiful cheeks,” but sorry, king: the internet has already made that butt an international landmark.
The queer impact: gay joy, body positivity, and being seen
Here’s the sweet part under all the sweaty chaos: Heated Rivalry has given queer audiences something that’s still weirdly rare — mainstream(ish) gay romance that’s allowed to be sexy, funny, tender, and unapologetically wanted. The obsession with these two men’s bodies is definitely thirsty, but it’s also part of a bigger shift: queer viewers loudly claiming space in pop culture and treating queer stories like the main event, not the “special episode.”
Williams also embraced the attention fans have paid to his own body details, including the stretch marks and dimples people have been zooming in on like it’s the Zapruder film. His attitude — “I like them” — is the kind of body positivity that lands especially hard in queer spaces, where so many people have been taught to either chase perfection or hide entirely. Seeing a leading man in a queer love story shrug and say, yep, this is my body, and it’s hot — that matters.
So yes: the workouts are real, the butt rivalry is serious, and season 2 is apparently gearing up to be an arms race… but for glutes. And honestly? In a world that still tries to shame queer desire, watching two men build confidence, flirt with the fandom, and treat gay joy like it belongs on the biggest screen available is exactly the kind of “spicy content” we deserve.
