Mike O’Hearn’s unwavering spirit toward fitness

The YouTube video posted on his channel films Mike O’ Hearn walking on the treadmill as he speaks words of wisdom. The ace bodybuilder says that he feels terrible even though he looks incredible while pushing himself hard to get that rigged physique.

He says, “At this little body fat, it’s not great to be that low all the time, and carrying that kind of muscle mass and minimizing the food that you’re taking in to get this look,” he confesses, and continues, “I have to do it to make sure that I continuously try to force to get better and better and better.”

Reflecting on his younger self, the 54-year-old actor says, he wanted to struggle to better himself but as he aged as fine wine, things changed.
