At 83, Mick Jagger is still one of the great references of international rock. Beyond his career as the leader of the Rolling Stones, the British singer draws attention for his physical condition and the energy he displays during his performances.

However, behind every show there is a preparation that combines physical activity, diet, and constancy.

Far from depending solely on musical rehearsals, the artist has incorporated different sports disciplines into his life that allow him to work on resistance, strength, and flexibility.

In an interview granted some time ago to the now-defunct Q Magazine, he explained how he organizes his training to respond to the demands of his concerts.

"I train five or six days a week, but I don't go crazy. I alternate between the gym and dance, then I do sprints and things like that. I train to gain resistance," he stated.

His physical preparation is not limited to lifting weights or running.

The musician also devotes time to activities that favor mobility and body control, two fundamental aspects for maintaining the pace of his performances.
One of the singer's main objectives is to maintain the resistance necessary to face concerts lasting several hours.

To achieve this, he combines cardiovascular exercises with strength and flexibility activities. Among his training habits is the possibility of covering up to 12 kilometers a day, whether outdoors or on a treadmill.

When his schedule or weather conditions do not allow it, he can replace this activity with swimming, cycling, or kickboxing sessions.

He also incorporates disciplines such as ballet, yoga, and Pilates, which contribute to improving balance, coordination, and mobility.

These practices are also part of his preparation for performing the movements and choreographies that characterize his shows.

For years, his training was supervised by Torje Eike, a Norwegian physical trainer with experience working with high-performance athletes. The sessions, which could extend between two and three hours, were mainly aimed at improving his aerobic capacity.

The combination of these activities allows him to work different physical capacities without concentrating exclusively on a single discipline. In any case, it is a routine adapted to his professional needs and not a program recommended for all people of his age.
