“I doubled down on my workouts and bike rides and cut out the bread this month and I’m almost at my goal weight of 218—well, to be totally honest, I actually still have 5lbs to go, so I’m not there yet,” he further wrote in his second newsletter. Adding to that, he also told his fans that he has leveled up his workout regime by adding skiing to it regularly. Skiing adds to his cardio and strength which will work more effectively.

“It’s so important to get your regular exercise, but also to participate in activities that make you happy and remind you why you train, even though somehow my thighs are always destroyed after a skiing weekend,” said the legend.
