Rockin' Fitness Secrets: How Sting Stays Young at 73 - It's All About "Vanity and Discipline"
Ex-Police Officer Paul Simon ["Sting"] Unveils His Exercise Philosophy: 'Ego and Self-Control' - Exercise philosophy revealed by Sting: "Vanity and discipline" - Rockstar discloses his fitness approach.
Hailing from New York and the Fields of Gold, music legend Sting is a force to be reckoned with, ruling the stage at 73 with energy that puts many in their 30s to shame. So, what's his secret? Vanity and a touch of self-discipline, admits the Englishman.
The man behind "Every Breath You Take" starts his day with a swim and a workout routine consisting of stretches. While he won't be found lifting weights, his active lifestyle keeps him in tip-top shape. The base of his fitness regimen dates back to his teenage years as an athlete, a dedication he's kept alive throughout the years.
Remember when we heard rumors of the singer's health issues and canceled shows earlier this year? Sting chuckles and compares it to a footballer with a swollen ankle - not exactly cause for alarm, right? "It's a sports injury," he says, adding with a grin, "Nothing more, nothing less."
In June and October, Sting will be gracing Germany with several performances in his power trio. With a love for his job as deep as the River of Dreams, the former Police frontman can't help but gush about his career, which has spanned nearly half a century. Even so, before every show, Sting feels the pressure. But it's not nerves that make his heart race - it's the determination to deliver an unforgettable performance.
"I prepare because you never know what might happen when you step on stage," he notes. Aware that he needs to be at the top of his game, Sting explains that he takes his job seriously and faces the pressure head-on, not wanting to disappoint his audience.
