Speaking on the Money Maze Podcast, Rodriguez said, “Well, it certainly gets harder and harder with age, right? It was much easier at 27. But I think it’s nutrition and then as a diversified way of going about things, I get bored easily. So I like to get some lifting in, some hot yoga. I spin on my bike.”
