The Immortal One took to social media to reveal his physical transformation. According to him, he dropped a massive amount of weight, and the scales hit 275 lbs. This was his 9th grade weight, and he was back to that.

“I was just with Hulk a week and a half or two weeks ago and he is training. Although the training is a little bit different than it used to be, he’s doing his physical therapy four or five days a week, a couple hours a day. Gets home and spends another hour or two in the gym and is eating as healthy as he can eat and I’m sure he’s praying his heart out to try to get a lot of the mobility back that 17 back surgeries and a couple hip replacements will take away from you.” H/t ComicBook
