The saying, “Like father, like son” has been modified slightly. It’s now more like “Like father-in-law like son-in-law” for Deion Sanders and rapper Jacquees. At 56, Coach Prime is all fit and fine. So much so that he refused to skip his training, even during vacation, with a lingering leg issue.

And Deiondra’s fiancé Jacquees noted it and caught the motivation bug. The rapper, too, now goes for a run at the beach. While Jacquees has the privilege of feeling the excitement, the soon-to-be mommy, Deiondra, is restricted to her home and misses her dad. 

Deion’s son-in-law chronicles his fitness journey 

What’s the secret sauce of Deion’s fitness game going strong even in his late 50s? It’s only two things- hard work and commitment. Deion’s exercise regimen is so top-notch that it has turned his rapper son-in-law into a fitness fanatic. The soon-daddy-to-be is in no way going to fall in the dad-bod group. Instead, he is on a mission to sculpt his body, emerge stronger, and flaunt his abs and muscles. And what’s his plan? To hit the beach and run through the sandy terrain. Deion’s son-in-law posted his video on his Instagram story with the caption, “Day 73.” 

But what makes Coach Prime’s fitness routine so unique? It’s his motivation to show up beating all odds. The Buffs HC is already in a lot of physical pain because of his amputated foot that underwent multiple surgeries. Yet that did not stop him from hitting the beach during his recent vacation at San José del Cabo. While dad enjoyed his solo trip in Mexico, daughter Deiondra suffered from a fun-deprivation crisis.  

Major missing for Deiondra

Deion took his fans on the trip along with him, sharing snippets from the picturesque place. On July 26, he shared a selfie with the turquoise sea in the backdrop. The caption read, “Had to get my work in on the beach. Got a mile & a half in and my legs are hurting me. The sand was soft, and it made me work harder. Quit was jogging right beside me but I finished tired and tested.” While every bit of the caption reverberated with Coach Prime’s strong will to push harder when life challenges him, Deiondra hardly cared about that side of the story.

The soon-mommy-to-be is in her third trimester and is mostly restricted to her house because of her difficult pregnancy. Instead of taking note of her father’s struggle, she commented, “Daaaang this woulda been the perfect dad and daughter trip…” 

While dad Deion and fiancé Jacquees are on their mission to be fitter with each passing day, Deiondra has gained 27 pounds. But she is rocking this new look with zero embarrassment. She even posted her pictures sporting a swimsuit, leaving Jacquees mesmerized.
