While a lot of people gained a lot of weight in lockdown, Elton John says the opposite happened to him. The singer revealed on the “Deeney Talks” podcast that he got into shape while stuck at home during the pandemic.
"I've always had a weight issue and a body conscious issue and I think it takes a long time for you to come to terms with that," John shared. "I don't think I ever will."
But Elton, who has Type 2 Diabetes, says he made his health a priority over the past year, consulting with a nutritionist and getting active. "I'm probably my really fittest I've been in a long, long time, and I feel great," he said. "I just wanted to come out the other side not overweight and feeling that when I go back on tour I'm going to be the fittest I've ever been."
And it helps that he has two great sources of inspiration, his sons 10-year-old Zachary and eight-year-old Elijah. He notes, "I've got two kids that I want to be around as much as possible.”
