The host revealed, “We did a contest one year, and we went insane. I was doing cardio like seven hours a day. Because it was a contest.” 

It shocked the guest to hear that, and she asked Rogan how he managed his work and family at the same time. He explained, “I would just get up in the morning and bang out seven hours of cardio.” He also revealed that during that time, he used to get up at seven in the morning. Moreover, after a little dose of caffeine, he used to straightaway go to the gym.
