Even at 82, Sir Mick Jagger still commands the stage with the same energy that defined The Rolling Stones in the ’60s. That kind of longevity<\/a> doesn\u2019t happen by accident. Jagger has spent decades prioritising his health and fitness<\/a> \u2013 and the results speak for themselves.<\/p>\n

Author Isadora Puiggen\u00e9 explores Jagger\u2019s remarkable endurance in her book Pacto Con El Diablo: Los H\u00e1bitos Saludables del Rolling Stone M\u00e1s Din\u00e1mico del Mundo (A Pact with the Devil: The Healthy Habits of the World\u2019s Most Dynamic Rolling Stone)<\/a>. According to Puiggen\u00e9, Jagger approaches fitness with complete dedication.<\/p>\n

\u2018He works out almost daily, combining various sports disciplines, follows a diet akin to a high-performance athlete, and practises meditation<\/a>. We cannot deny that Mick Jagger has enviable genetics, but his true elixir of eternal youth is the discipline and willpower he applies to everything he does \u2014 especially when looking after his body and mind. It\u2019s not a pact with the devil; it\u2019s a pact with himself,\u2019 she told Hello!.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2018My interest in Mick Jagger\u2019s healthy routine arose when he turned 80. It seemed like a brilliant idea to use a rock star like Jagger, known across the globe, to show that it\u2019s never too late to start looking after yourself.\u2019<\/p>\n

Jagger has trained with Norwegian coach Torje Eike for many years, folding a wide mix of activities into his routine to keep things both effective and engaging. He swims, kickboxes, cycles, practises ballet to improve balance, and works on mobility through yoga<\/a> and Pilates<\/a>. It\u2019s a packed schedule \u2013 he trains up to six days a week \u2013 but he\u2019s not pushing to the limit every session. For him, consistency beats intensity.<\/p>\n

\u2018I train five or six days a week, but I don\u2019t go crazy,\u2019 Jagger has said<\/a>. \u2018I\u2019m training for stamina.\u2019 <\/p>\n
