Everything you need to know about me
The only thing more impressive than Cristiano Ronaldo’s goal-scoring is his set of abs. He gets them by doing 1,000 situps a week. So I tried it.
There’s a reason he and I look like a “Before-and-After” diet pill ad.
Check out the rest of my “Day in Their Life” series. And hit me up on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook to let me know what celebrity routine I should try next.
Two things I love: Game of Thrones and wishing I was on Game of Thrones. For the HBO show’s Season 7 premiere, I put my Braavosi coin where my mouth is to see how I’d stack up in a sword fight against guys like Jon Snow and Jamie Lannister.
Skip to the 1:05 mark in the Daily Glow episode below to watch me go through armored combat training before jumping in a real fight against a (much bigger) knight-in-training. Things…didn’t go well.
I knew I was in for a beating when I started sweating profusely just putting on the armor. But the good news? Not only did I battle to a draw in my second fight – I didn’t bleed or puke! King in The North!
So it’s been an exciting start hosting at LittleThings and, now that I’ve been there a few weeks, figured it was time to share some highlights from my first month on the job.
From animals trying to bite me, to my AcroYoga debut, to holding a pushup contest against myself, here’s a look at some of the cool stuff you might’ve missed.
NBC’s Spartan Team Ultimate Challenge is back for Season 2, and so is host MJ Acosta. She shares how she got the gig and how it fits with her TWO sports anchor day jobs…in two languages! Plus more talk on her career path (including time as a Miami Dolphins cheerleader) and MJ is nice enough to indulge Mike’s obsession with Apolo Ohno.
Check out NBC’s Spartan page for more info on the show and keep up with MJ on Twitter and Instagram. Of course you can always follow me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat.
