Zac Efron Shows Off His Abs in Shirtless Birthday Thirst Trap

Zac Efron celebrated his 34th birthday this week, and marked the occasion on social media with a shirtless photo taken while at the beach in Thailand, which shows off the actor's toned six-pack abs and V-cut.

"It's my bday again? I’m gettin old now- thanks for the bday wishes everyone I love you," he wrote in the caption. "I am so lucky to be able to be on this amazingly fun ride with you all. This one feels very special as I get to spend it in Thailand, alongside the most talented and kind cast and crew, making a movie that I think will be awesome… couldn’t be a happier moment in my life. Love you all so much."

Efron, whose most recent screen credits include the Ted Bundy film Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile and the Netflix docuseries Down to Earth, famously got incredibly jacked while preparing to star in the 2017 movie Baywatch. But he has since repeatedly spoken publicly on how he "nearly lost his mind" due to the intense diet and workout plan that were involved in achieving those kinds of results, and has said that his body will never look like that again.

"I realized that when I was done with that movie, I don’t ever want to be in that good of shape again," he said in 2020. "It was so hard... You’re working with almost no wiggle room. You got things like water under your skin that you’re worrying about, making your six-pack into a four-pack. Shit like that. It’s just stupid and it’s not real."
