He said, “During lockdown I’ve really gotten fit. I’ve walked in the pool, I’ve played tennis. I just wanted to come out the other side not overweight and feeling that when I go back on tour I’m going to be the fittest I’ve ever been.”

He revealed that his weight has often gone up and down over the years. Recently, he decided to really focus on himself and his health and it looks like it has been paying off! He continued, “I’m probably my really fittest I’ve been in a long, long time, and I feel great.”

He continued, “There’s no point in moaning about being overweight. You’ve got to do something about it. And it’s just starting the process, sitting down with a doctor or nutritionist, saying ‘How do I approach this? How do I do it?'” Elton also said his two young kids were an inspiration to get healthier, get in the best shape possible, and stick around as long as possible for them!
