To stay in good health, Gardell has requested that his producers provide a weight bench and adjustable weights in his trailer so he can exercise when he has time on set. He has also changed his diet, saying he eats healthy, smaller portions and no longer indulges in unhealthy foods regularly.
Although he has received criticism for his weight in the past, Gardell has learned to brush it off and focus on his health. He hopes to inspire others to prioritize their self-care, just as he has.
Gardell also shared that he underwent gastric bypass surgery two years ago, but emphasizes that it’s not a quick fix. Committing to a healthy lifestyle is key to maintaining long-term success. He encourages others to ask for help when needed and to seek support when making lifestyle changes.
As a father, Gardell hopes to set a positive example for his son and demonstrate that it’s never too late to prioritize health. He wants his son to understand that anyone can make changes to better themselves, one day at a time.
