Watch: "Arrow" Star to Gain 25 Pounds of Muscle

It wouldn't be an E! News chat with Colton Haynes if we didn't grill him about his buff body, now would it?

And that's exactly what we did when we caught up with the Arrow hottie at Coach's benefit for the Children's Defense Fund.

"I gotta gain another 20, 25 pounds of muscle," Haynes said of bulking up for the second season on the show. "I have a feeling I'm going to be possible be wearing a suit of some sort."

Oh, yeah!

They finish filming this season in less than two weeks. Production starts back up again in July. In other words, Haynes has a lot of working out to do in the next few months.

"Training, a lot of eating, a lot of steaks," he said of his of upcoming fitness regimen, while stressing he'll work out "in the healthy way."

That's good to hear, becauase if Haynes isn't careful all that extra bulk could interfere with his good looks. "I'm going to [become] a meathead," he joked. "I'm going to have no neck."

Must be really tough getting paid to get into incredible shape.

"You do it for the art," Haynes said. "Yeah right, I do it because all the fans want to see all the guys on Arrow with their shirts off."

Just ask star Stephen Amell.
