I concentrate on making everything strong, and you can’t do that with just cardio. I strength-train one day – and I’m not talking heavy weights, just a little. I see my trainer one day, next day I take a yoga class or cook. I’m not someone who just opens a pantry and rustles something up.

I didn’t just show up as a walk-on back in 1989. I’ve done this my whole life, and I’d tell any young trainer to start in quarter horses because you have to do everything. I broke them, rode them, wrapped them and slept with them since I was a boy.

If you want to lose weight, you have to be obsessed with it. You can’t depend upon your dietician, your trainer or various health aids that you have. You have to be organised.

Passion and hunger are the two ingredients that I look for in first making the judgment on – whether an athlete, an assistant coach, or a horse trainer or anybody I do business with.
I sometimes look on YouTube and see people label videos ‘Anthony Yarde sparring his trainer Ade’ but that is not sparring, that’s just practice. We practice getting attacked, countering and attacking your opponent back, in intelligent ways.

I aim for four workouts a week. I work out with a trainer once a week. Then, I take a circuit class twice a week. The fourth workout is random, depending on what I’m in the mood for – either a run, a spin class, or yoga.

I love to do lunges because I don’t want my butt to start sagging. I say that to my trainer all the time; he thinks I’m nuts.
I thank God that I had such an amazing father who was my trainer as well.
I’m a gym rat; I love my hour-long afternoon sessions with my trainer.
I’m not about anything special – I don’t use a trainer or anything like that. And really just eating healthy, eating balanced, knowing what is good and, when you push it too far, easing up and getting back on track.
My coaches, trainer and agency have all helped make me the player and the business that I am today.
I’ve considered going to lightweight. As soon as my trainer decides that I can go up, then I will.
I’ve got a personal trainer, and I train three times a week.
I loathe exercise. And I hate gyms. I’ve never had a personal trainer.
The fact is that movie stars are as insecure as the rest of us – if not more so. Many live in a luxurious bubble in which their best friends are their trainer, their hairdresser, their publicist, and their Kabbalah instructor.
