Celebrity Life

Rodjun Cruz on fitness: 'Kapag nag-start ka na mag-gym, lifestyle na 'yan'


Actors appear to have a glamorous lifestyle, but being a celebrity is actually quite demanding. Besides having hectic schedules and long taping hours, they also do not get that much sleep.

Despite all these, Kapuso star Rodjun Cruz makes sure to live a healthy lifestyle and keep in shape.

The baby-faced actor made waves with his portrayal of Eric’s suitor, Martin, in My Husband’s Lover. He also walked the runway in this year’s Cosmo Bachelor Bash. With proper time management, he gets to balance acting, modeling and working out.

What is Rodjun’s secret to having washboard abs, biceps and triceps?

He quips, “Ang secret kasi, dati idol ko talaga si Victor [Basa]. Hindi pa ako nagdyi-gym noon. Nakikita ko ‘yung billboards niya na pinapakita ‘yung abs niya, so nagsipag talaga akong mag-work out. Mga two years din siguro.”

“Seriously, isa lang ang secret. Kapag nag-start ka na mag-gym, lifestyle na ‘yan. Siyempre, kailangan talaga nagda-diet ka rin, tapos siguro mga three times a week na pupunta ka sa gym para makuha mo ‘yung katawan na gusto mo,” he explains.

Of course, one has to maintain an active lifestyle. This is not a problem for Rodjun, who does Muay Thai and boxing regularly. He is also known for his superb dancing skills. It is certainly not just about beating the rhythm for this dashing stud. It is all about being the rhythm and going with the flow of life’s beautiful offerings.

“’Wag naman all work and no play. Siyempre, dapat may time for bonding with family and loved ones. Kami, sabay-sabay kaming nanonood ng movies. ‘Yun lang, simple lang,” he shares.

“At the end of the day, dapat enjoy-in mo ‘yung meron ka kasi ‘pag masaya at positive ka, magiging mas confident ka na rin sa pagdadala mo sa sarili mo,” states Rodjun.
