I want kids to enjoy skating and I think it’s a great workout.
My workout is ballet class and rehearsal – I’ve never belonged to a gym.
Sometimes I hope that through osmosis I might get a workout – just by wearing the clothes.
You want your workout to sneak up on you. That’s when you get the best results.
I basically live in workout clothes.
Performing is the craziest workout for me, because I feel like, on the first day of tour, I’m going nuts. Halfway through, I’m just so tired but obviously you keep pushing yourself because you have fans watching you.
My daily routine would include waking up very early, usually around 6:00 A.M., going for a workout or hike, and getting on with my day. I always just try to keep every day as productive as possible.
When you’re at the house, there’s a lot of distractions and a lot of things that can take you away from your workout.
The act of exercising at 6 A.M. really helped me. It made me not dread the workout part of my day all day long. Also, when I went to have a tiny cheat, I would really think back to how hard I worked and thought, ‘It is not worth going to boot camp an extra week over one peanut butter cup.’
I’ve always been a workout type guy. So if I’m feeling down or I’m not happy with something, I go to the gym and I get a shot of energy.
You spend so much time in your head in life. And what yoga does is, it asks you to allow your head to be quiet, to allow it to be still, just for an hour and a half. Just deal with your body and your breath. And it’s a great workout. I love it.
I’m probably the least flexible athlete you’ll find. When it comes to yoga, I can’t get in the positions and I can’t hold them. You have to be pretty flexible to do it. Once you get certain positions, you have to have the core strength to hold those positions. It’s a pretty good workout.
No matter what I do, it’s all about the workouts. When I travel, I make sure I get my workout in first. When I’m in camp for a fight, I don’t travel at all, and I train three times a day. The secret is to just keep working.
I might have 10 almonds straight after a workout, then a protein shake and then a meal.
Any kind of workout has a lot of benefits. But working out in open spaces provides environmental stimulation and helps you connect with nature.
When I am travelling or shooting outdoors, and if there is no gym around, I do pull-ups. If there is a bar somewhere, I manage push-ups, squats, and generally I just sweat it out in the room or my vanity van. But I make sure my workout regime is never hampered at any cost!
I’m a slob. I live in sweatpants and workout clothes.
I’m addicted to a really tough workout. I like to be drenched in sweat when I’m done because I feel accomplished.
A buddy will keep you honest and add a dimension of fun to your workout.
For a workout, I love to hike or take a long walk. Being outside is crucial; I can’t stand gyms.
We had training camp for a week, and we used the actual military drills of that period. We didn’t have to work out much after hours, because going up and down hills all day was a good workout in itself.
My favourite quality workout is 6 X 5 minutes with 1 minute rest between each.
Half the struggle is just getting yourself to the gym or getting yourself in your workout gear and ready for action.
If you were inactive due to an injury or a surgery, then common sense rules the day when inching closer to the area that was hurt. That is very different from inactivity due to being ill. After illness, be aware of how taxing your workout is cardiovascularly and err on the side of less.
In the House gym – I go every day, in fact; I’m part of a bipartisan workout group. There’s one that does this P90X that’s kind of like dancing around and whatnot. And then there’s one that does CrossFit. And I’ll just say Paul Ryan and I are not in the same workout group.
To be honest, for me, my main workout is when I’m on stage. Even though I make pop music, I don’t think I perform in the classic ‘pop star’ sort of way. I’m very active on stage; I always end up dripping in sweat afterwards. It’s always like a full-on, wild performance, so that’s pretty much like my exercise, I would say.
Just because they’re going to the gym, a lot of guys wear old T-shirts that look like they’ve been lying in the closet for 15 years. My workout clothes have to work.
A regular workout for me is 30 minutes of intense cardio followed by lifting weights.
I was hoping to workout with Kareem on a daily basis. After that first workout, I never got a chance.
I have a series of exercises in which I do a lot of core. I enjoy an ab workout. I practice every day and do many different types.
Eat carbs such as sweet potato or jasmine rice within one hour of your workout. Cut down on them on rest days when you don’t need the extra fuel.
I’m an English boy. I played a lot of sports growing up, but I never had any kind of workout regimen.
If I’m going to get it in with the sugar, if I’m going to have some cake. I always make sure I put in a hard workout after that for sure.
No matter how busy I get or how much pressure is on my shoulders, a good workout makes me feel at ease. I come off the treadmill feeling relaxed, full of joy and with a sense of perspective over the issues on my plate.
Working out, no matter what time of the night, rejuvenates me. At times, I don’t feel sleepy after a workout session, as I am all fresh and charged up, and I don’t mind compromising on my sleep.
Just being an ape is a workout.
You can sit in the chair and do the workout. There’s no other program in the world that is like DDP YOGA.
Hip hop classes and ballet are what I’ve been keeping up with, and of course my usual abdominal workout, which consists of 500 sit-ups a session. Or I take a 30-minute abs class at my gym. But dance classes are a full-body cardio workout, which always brings me success and keeps me feeling great.
I’m so busy and there’s so much going on, that the gym or a workout can’t be a last minute thought, like, ‘I have nothing to do today I’m going to go to the gym.’ Now it’s, ‘When am I going to find time to work out tomorrow?’
After a workout, you definitely have to have a protein shake. I drink my six-pound whey protein all the time, too. I throw some fruit in there – strawberries, blueberries – with some peanut butter and banana, and it gives you all the recovery you need from a hard day of lifting and running.
I eat whatever I want. I don’t follow any diet. The reason I workout is so that I can eat. If it’s a bikini shoot, of course you should not eat a pizza a day before. Otherwise I am not a dieting kind of a person. If I am hungry, I make sure I eat.
Although I train hard with England and Rajasthan Royals, when I am at home in London I always like to join some group fitness classes and experiment with new workout ideas.
I love matching workout sets. There’s something about looking good and feeling good, as cheesy as that sounds, and it always makes my run seem a little better.
I’m not ashamed to admit that for many years, most of my fitness information came from a VHS series by MTV called ”The Grind Workout.”
Oh, I’m up at 6:00 A.M. every morning because I have a lot to do. Plenty. I work out probably at, like, 8:00. I gotta eat at 6:00 so, therefore, I can workout at 8:00.
I always find a way to get a workout in.
I often eat a lot of food when I eat and I eat maybe three or four times a day. I eat a good breakfast I have a protein shake or something between breakfast and my workout. After working out I have a shake and then eat lunch.
Because dancing is way more fun than the treadmill, I downloaded the video of Beyonce’s ‘Single Ladies’ and started to learn her dance. Let me tell you, if I ever did that dance in a club, I would still be a single lady! But what a workout!
As athletes, we love to say, ‘Just one more; I’m going to figure it out on this next one.’ It’s tough to pull back the reins and do what is smart physically, listening to your body and always ending a workout or session feeling like I could have done more.
It didn’t feel difficult at the time because I was so charged up about both books. Afterward, however, I was pretty tired. In a good way, like after a great workout.
On the road you can’t go hardcore with your workout and lifting and then play.
If you ever see The Rock working out in the gym, don’t think you can just go up and disturb his workout and expect him to take a picture. He’s there to work, so kindly just pass the silverback on by or he’ll rip your face off.
My workout routine changed pretty dramatically in the NFL. Workout programs from college to the NFL are significantly different.
That’s the thing I’m worst at: resting. I have to be forced to do it. Sometimes I think of loopholes. ‘Oh, I’m just going for a walk, up a dune that’s 45 degrees, but I’m walking, so it’s not a workout.’
After a workout, I have a protein drink and always keep a protein bar in my bag.
I take a magnesium supplement before my workout because it prevents cramping.
I try to squeeze in a workout whenever I can, even if it’s doing squats with my 7-month-old in the kitchen or jumping on the trampoline with my 5-year-old.
A dance or steps workout is so enjoyable, as you have to think about the moves, so you haven’t got time to think about anything else or how much it hurts.
