The London-native added, “I work out extensively.” He also emphasized that even though he works out a lot, the star has been ?generally very fit? because he?d played soccer throughout his life. Besides, Stewart seemed irked by the presumption that he is a smoker. ?I don’t smoke. It’s funny, critics keep saying on this tour, ‘Oh, he’s gone off the stage to have a rest.’ No, I haven’t!? he exclaimed in a chat with People.?

The star noted that surviving on tour now is much easier than how it used to be with his bandmates. He travels in his private jet, stays in the best hotels, and enjoys life on weekends. ?I think I deserve it,? Rod noted.?
