WWE SmackDown star and a former four times WWE World Championship Sheamus who is also a former three times WWE United States champion recently discussed how his training routine is changing as he is getting older. The Celtic Warrior is one of the biggest attractions of the blue brand of WWE right now.
Sheamus is working in WWE for over a decade and he had been one of the biggest talents of WWE throughout his career. He has been a former four times World champion and also been an excellent mid card. He has been involved in so many great matches and memories throughout his WWE career.
Sheamus Reveals Why His Training Routine Is Changing
Recently he has formed an alliance with Butch and Ridge Holland and together they were famously addressed as the Brawling Brutes. This faction had been a big attraction of WWE Friday Night SmackDown and recently they had a great feud with none other than the Bloodline. The faction had been pretty impressive since the very first day of formation.
Sheamus also had an excellent feud with the WWE Intercontinental Champion Gunther for the title. The former world champion might have lost the feud but he had been involved in some of the great matches with Gunther. Their performance at the Clash at the Castle pay per view event has received 5 star rating from Dave Meltzer and it is already a contender for match of the Year.
Sheamus who is also a former three times WWE United States champion recently spoke to Men’s Health where he discussed how his training routine is changing as he is getting older. He said;
“I was dreading going into the gym to the same boring stuff, the same workouts, the same thing over and over again. I lost my motivation. I started doing these kind of cool, outside workouts with sleds, battling ropes, and wall balls—that sort of stuff, you know? And I was like, this is fun. This is how workouts should be.”
“I have a trainer. It’s actually John Cena’s trainer, and also he does a lot of work with other guys. His name is Rob MacIntyre. It’s a four day split: legs, back and bis, shoulders, chest and tris.”
“The older you get, the smarter you get. You have to know your limitations. So what do I want to do? Do I want to throw big, heavy weights around the gym? Do I want to start sumo squatting, like 600 pounds? Squat like 400 to 500 pounds? No, I don’t. I want my longevity. I want my workouts to compliment my ringwork.
“So I need to be smarter. So I don’t have any ego throwing weights around. I don’t need to do that anymore. To me, it’s how I look in there, how I move. I also want to look aesthetically good. So a lot of it is diet as well. So, you know, no sugar, cut back on alcohol—which obviously hasn’t gone well this last wedding week—got to get back on track with that because alcohol causes a lot of inflammation. So does sugar.”
