“I haven’t made a video from the gym in a long time,” said Stallone, the man who gave us some of the best workout montages in movie history. As Rocky Balboa, Sly refined his training and nutrition to the point that he redefined the transformations actors now make for their roles. achieve a body fat level of less than 3% Rocky III. Then there’s John Rambo, a soldier so ripped that his torso is used in political posters. But at age 79, the star, who continues to have huge success with Tulsa King, doesn’t feel the same need to appear shirtless in front of the camera. However, that doesn’t mean he avoids the gym. In fact, it remains a space that is very special to the actor’s heart.
Sylvester Stallone continues to inspire at the age of 79
“You know, it’s kind of like a sanctuary in a way, a church,” the king of sequels shared, talking about his love for the gym. “We pray to get better. To feel better physically, so that you have the strength to achieve your goals, feel confident and ready to take on any challenge.” In the IG reel, Stallone appears to be in great shape, slim and muscular while wearing a black vest and sweats. “Anyway, keep hitting, see you soon,” the Cliffhanger star signed off, allowing fans, friends and co-stars to show some love.
“Sly, ever since I first saw the original Rocky in theaters. You have unknowingly been a mentor to me. You have led by example time and time again. You gave me the confidence to believe in myself,” wrote WWE legend Diamond Dallas Page in a heartfelt comment. “Unbelievable,” wrote bodybuilder Edgard John-Augustin.
This sentiment was echoed by stars around the world, including 2026 Mr Olympia, Derek Lunsford and host Mario Lopez. Fans were also quick to judge Sly’s update. “Leading by example and looking great Sly,” one follower wrote. “We’d be lucky to look like Sly at his age,” wrote another. We think a lot of people would be lucky to look like Sly, at half his age! Luckily, with season four of Tulsa King currently in development, Sylvester Stallone will be back on our screens and inspiring us again soon.
