Alex Rodriguez is always on the grind. But the former New York Yankees player also knows what it means to take care of one’s health and is never one to compromise on it. Having led the life of an athlete, albeit one with a controversial past, A-Rod knows the true meaning of ‘health is wealth’. Even after trading his pinstriped jersey for crisp business suits, the 47-year-old still follows a strict diet and workout regimen. Especially more so after a recent scary diagnosis.

A few weeks ago, Rodriguez revealed he had early-stage gum disease. What was supposed to be a regular dentist check-up brought with it some terrible news. But A-Rod is not easily fazed and is doing everything he can to combat it. Even though he is currently vacationing in Europe with his family, Rodriguez has not given up on his daily habits.

Alex Rodriguez keeps up his rigorous workout routine

The Rodriguez family has been touring the European part of the world for a few weeks now. From Croatia to Italy, their social media is full of trekking trips as well as fun times on a cruise ship. Rodriguez is accompanied by his two daughters, Natasha and Ella, as well as his girlfriend Jaclyn Cordeiro. Additionally, his half-siblings, Joe and Suzy, and nephew Nick Silva are also on the trip. Recently, the former Yankee even posted a picture with some of his co-workers from A-Rod Corp and FOX Sports. Seems like everyone’s taking full advantage of the summer!

But while this may be a vacation from the daily grind, Rodriguez has not forgotten his health. He even posted a picture of himself lifting weights to his Instagram. The flat lay shot captured him bench pressing with a weight in each hand at the edge of a boat, with water just behind him.
