‘I genuinely like taking care of myself’

Asked ‘how he motivates himself every single day’ to stay fit, the actor, who turned 52 in December 17, 2024, said: “I’m practically an agnostic… I’m practically an atheist. I believe my only religion is taking care of yourself. Your body is your temple, you need to look after it. I don’t do it for narcissistic reasons… I want to believe I’m always in a transformed state, most of the time. maybe with about 10-20 percent deviation, and I genuinely like taking care of myself. I don’t do it for narcissistic reasons… like I need to have a six-pack for this film or for that film. If I have it, great. If I’m fit, great.”

John Abraham hits the gym seven days a week

When the actor was asked if ‘there has never been a day when he has not felt like going’ to the gym, he said, “I mean Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, if there’s another day in the week maybe that day (I don’t feel like going to the gym) – but the seven days, I go, I hit the gym… if I’ve got a migraine issue or low-grade temperature, so I’ll work out and I’ll do lighter weights, but I will not not go to the gym. I won’t be foolish but I will go (for a workout) and get some sense of sanity… There’s a special ecosystem of people that really get what I’m doing.”
