He's been a bodybuilder his whole life ... and he's just trying to keep his connection to the industry.
I know right a way there's a person that's very insecure; that he's trying to out do me. And, ah, like I was saying before, if you give one-hundred percent of your best, and you may have fault, but there is nothing you can do, because you gave one-hundred percent.
If you are going to try and hide something, sooner or later people are going to find out.
The best effect I have on the other competitors, is the fact that I have a good time.
There is no excuse for anyone not to train three times a week. People want to look fat. Anyone can change their mind if they want to. It's all about motivation.
Pumping iron is not what it used to be. It doesn't have the personality it used to. When we started out, people who worked out had nothing. Now there is so much money involved; back then it was the love of the sport. We appreciated what we have. Today it's not the same.
Anytime I do a movie or a TV show, I make them aware of my hearing loss at the beginning, and that makes it much easier for all of us to communicate and get the job done.
I am proud to be able to do my part as part of the team and to help these brave and dedicated deputy sheriffs in keeping Los Angeles County safe for the people who live, work and visit here.
I get attention no matter where I walk, regardless being an actor or celebrity, because big as I am people always look at me.
When I work out, I wear two in-the-ear hearing aids for comfort, and then I wear the behind-the-ears for my day-to-day non-physical activities, when I need maximum hearing and to communicate with people and do interviews!
The Hulk was a unique character because of his strength and power. He doesn't have a costume like Spiderman or like Superman - The Hulk is more visual. His passion and his strength, that is what separates him from anything else.
I think Eric Bana would be a good Superman. He's got that look. I think he'd be a great Superman.
I train a lot of people on the side as a personal trainer, but I still work out myself to keep in great shape.
I love doing comedy. I did comedy for seven years on 'The King of Queens.
