“I don't lift weights. I do fitness exercises to stay strong.” — Chad le Clos Quote

I don't lift weights. I do fitness exercises to stay strong.

I realise every swimmer has a shelf life. No, I haven't given any thought to when I will retire, but I also know I won't be able to swim forever.

The reason swimming is one of the hardest sports is because you have to be in the pool by yourself every day, making that sacrifice. There's no time to do anything else.

An Olympic medal is much better than a world record, and so is a world championship or Commonwealth Games medal.

Everyone can train hard when they are feeling good. But it's the days when you're feeling bad that you have to step up. That's when champions step up. They pull through.

I can't imagine my life without a fitness regime and enjoy motivating others about the same.

My mom has a couple great tricks, but my father is consistently a good cook. He's extremely avid about health and fitness and a bit obsessive. He always talks about garden-fresh food.

The only way for a rich man to be healthy is by exercise and abstinence, to live as if he were poor.

I try to come at fitness and nutrition from a perspective of gentleness and what will make me feel good afterwards. I try to stay out of the mindset of needing to fix myself. I do whatever seems fun to me.

Whether you're a batsman, bowler, or an all-rounder, fitness is tough if you follow your regimen religiously.
