........WITH PERSONAL TRAINER REQUEST
Veteran hellraiser RONNIE WOOD has left his wife JO amazed after joining her for a work-out with her personal trainer. The ROLLING STONES guitarist, who has had a well-documented battle with alcohol and drugs, asked if he could exercise alongside his former model spouse. Jo says, "We worked out together - me and Ronnie. Can you believe that?! He rolled up his sleeves and just got on with it. "Today, he's suffering, of course. He keeps complaining that he can't move, but secretly I think he's delighted with himself. I am, too. "I never take anything for granted where Ronnie's concerned, but it's a step in the right direction, isn't it? Next, I think I'll get him into gardening." 30/12/2006 12:58

Kind of surprising - I would've guessed that even with his problems, he did some sort of regular exercise, just because he's so damn SKINNY. We know Mick exercises like a maniac - I just figured Ronnie (and Keith too) did as well despite their decadent lifestyle. |

Can you really imagine Keith exercising?
I think it's more of just that they don't eat alot or they have extremely high metabolisms.

This was all in todays Daily Mail. It hinted at Ronnie doing the exercises to keep a tab on his missus as she has the hots for the trainer. This particular newspaper has run several exclusives on Ronnie in recent years. They seem to have an obsession with the band and actually, unlike some other UK tabloids, I think they are quite positive about them. |

As normal, all this "hub-bub" about Ronnie having one foot in the grave and on his last breath over the past three years has been for the most part Incredibly exaggeratted.
Sure the dude has an addiction. He will tell you that. And all that drinking isn't good for anyones health. But come on the dude can work out at the gym any time and he is able to go in and do it with ease. That right there tells the tale.
Right there is your proof the dude is not in piss poor shape.
He is fine as he always was. Just trying to stay away from booze is all.

wrong. Ronnie even admitted it himself. Front page story and 3 page interview in the Sunday People almost three years ago. He was told by doctors that he was in the early stages of emphysema and if he didnt quit smoking it could kill him within a year. His words. Not some idle internet gossip.
And three or four spells of rehab for alcohol addiction since 2002 doesnt exactly suggest he's been in tip top shape all that time either. |

I know for sure Keith (yes, keith) used to have pretty regular jogging in the eighties and early 90s. Saw pictures of him jogging. got no idea of if and how he still does. there's most life-jamming among rockers and sportsman nowadays, sometimes pro-sport and musicians share experience and teach something to each other, noting strange in misbehaving and doing kinda sport at the same time. there are plenty of examples. |

It took me a second, but I think I gotcha. I recently read an article about how Eddie Vedder & Kelly Slater hang out. Cool Stuff! |

You saw photos? I've seen pictures of him on a bike & it didn't look all that steady. I cannot picture Keith jogging. |

Was he jogging or just burning off some lines! |

LOL The idea of Keith doing a fitness program is quite fankly unbelievable. He's in fine shape but I think he probably doesn't eat much. |

strangely, his voice improved as a result of droping the guitar, which was mostly a prop during his sets. |

It was horrid early on this fall but it improved as the tour went on. Those mini-strokes were tough on him. |

yep. I m not sure it was a strictly athletic programme, anyway, a picture dont mean a schedule. I have the picture here, it belongs to the early eighties, th text says "keuth doing long jogs in connecticut". I am hopeless computerwise, promise I'll do something to share the pic very soon.
What I can give you for sure is that rockers do more sport than they like to admit. I am a sport journalist/anchor with a strong rock infection, so I find myself in the middle a few times. it's nice, sportsman learning the first goofy chords at 45, guitarists with sore backs after the first workout at 53, yeah, nice. |

I recall seeing an article in Life magazine from the early 80's that showed Mick jogging & the other group members laughed at him for it. |
