Truthfully, everyone knows how to eat right. They know the difference between oatmeal and a jelly cream doughnut. They know how to walk. Everyone has this in their brain. When I started, we didn't have all this knowledge.

Well mine is not gimmicky - it is the 6 food groups that God made, and exercising every day. Trying to think positively.

We're all in trouble, and we all need to sort of pick up the pieces and start to exercise more and really be careful with the food.

For my workout, I'm up at 4 A.M. I say my prayers, count my blessings, and I work out right away. I just get it done.

My persona has always been what a man was never supposed to be. Outrageous, gregarious, crazy, silly, funny.

Most workouts are way too aggressive. Thousands of lunges wear out the body.
