Tim McGraw quit drinking after his wife told him he’s ‘gone too far.’
But not only has sobriety impacted his intimate relationships, it’s affected his physical appearance – for the best.
Stripping down to a pair of light grey tracksuit shorts, the 47-year-old country crooner showed off his impressive form in the newest issue of Men’s Health Magazine.
“We work with pulleys, bars, and do core training, strength and balanced movements to build up the muscles between the ribs and connective tissues,” McGraw’s trainer Roger Yuan told People. “I have trained a lot of people and many are hard workers. But Tim is another animal. I have to rein him in and have to tell him, ‘You can’t do that much.’ There is no quitting him.”
According to sources, McGraw is reportedly following the paleo diet – which focuses on organic proteins, healthy fats, non-starchy vegetables, and excludes sugar, processed foods, and dairy. A typical dinner might include grilled salmon served with asparagus and lightly fried polenta slices. He also likes to indulge in the occasional cheeseburger, but admits such treats are kept to a minimum. “I like to eat. I like food. That is one of the reasons that I throw that extra hour of working out in,” he says.
All of this adds up to a training routine that’s beyond what most of us might pursue: 90 minutes, 3 times per day.
“I’ll be the first to admit I take it to extremes,” he tells Men’s Health. “‘I’m not one of those people who can sorta half-ass something.”
