Mike O?Hearn believes in what Buddha had preached

The ‘Titan’ was collaborating with his friend in this Q&A, and they were discussing the connection of mind and body, mimicking what Frank Zane also used to say. Giving the body proper rest and sleep along with discipline was the main goal, according to the 54-year-old.

The main crux of the discussion was to work out and keep a healthy lifestyle, see that there was a proper work-life balance and that the health of any individual was not compromised.

The bodybuilding icon and actor explained that even with the negative influence of social media, he still saw many successful people benefiting from the same.

He said, ?The one thing I do notice is those guys that are successful and they do focus, most of them when they get at a certain age they do focus on changing on ?I need to be healthy.?

He also very humbly brought back an ancient teaching by Lord Buddha where the bodybuilder said, ?I think Buddha said that people waste time to make money and then they try to spend the money to get time to be healthy.? Then he followed the idea with the fact that everyone is young for a short period but older for a longer period.

O’Hearn said that ultimately to regain longevity, one has to maintain their body and their mental health and concentrate on their own benefit. O?Hearn?s ideas are always applauded by the bodybuilding world and even the veterans of the classical era.
