Overview

  • He steps on the scale daily but maintains that short fluctuations do not derail his focus on overall progress.
  • His daily workout starts with 10 minutes of strength training designed to preserve bone health and flexibility.
  • He aims for 10,000 steps each day, fitting in "walking snacks"—brief strolls at 30 Rockefeller Center and loops around Central Park.
  • He cooks his own meals, beginning mornings with yogurt, granola and banana while still enjoying steak dinners and apple crisp in moderation.
  • He credits these habits for aiding his recovery from prostate cancer surgery and a 2022 hospitalization for blood clots and gallbladder removal.
