Trevante Rhodes Workout And Diet
He wakes up at 4:30, then goes to the gym for a couple of hours, does abs, whatever muscle that is for the day, he jogs, and he starts his day at eight. His routine is as good for the body as the soul.
“I think it’s kind of like a chicken-and-egg thing,” says Rhodes. “But I think everything starts mentally. Everything starts mentally and spiritually, emotionally, all of those things. Everything is, for me at least, inside out.”
A good, early gym session leaves him feeling like he can do anything. To hear him describe his workouts is damn near poetic, a process of breaking down both body and mind through fatigue, washing that fatigue away in the shower, and emerging invigorated, ready to confront the day. If that sounds punishing, take it back to meditation.
“I jog on the treadmill with the lights off, man. It’s just peaceful, you know? I know it sounds strange, but it’s so quiet, I feel like you can breathe.”

I don’t feel like there’s a solution to our problems, but this movie might change people. That’s why you do it — because you feel like you’re doing something that matters. This is someone’s story.”
