That Body Is Just Not Natural
Published by Marcus Vanderberg on Wednesday, July 2, 2008 at 12:36 pm.Rapper LL Cool J is on the cover of the August issue of Men’s Fitness, looking yoked as usual.
I know they say “good Black don’t crack” but at age 40, a body of that type is just not natural.
Makes you wonder, how he is able to maintain a body like that.
Here’s an excerpt from the article:
LL has always preached long hours of sweat and sacrifice as he only secret to his incredible physique. And that, he says, has not changed. “Steroids? more like L-roids.”
“Lets be realistic: I have been a relevant figure in practically every era of hip-hop. No one else can say that. You have people that dominated one era. I have been relevant in every era and dominated a couple. Russell Simmons and I are the blueprint for everything that you see going on in hip-hop.”
“I am not going to lie and tell you that i am overly impressed with hip-hop right now.” As for who the greatest rapper is alive – a title Jay-Z currently boasts – LL Cool J says only time will tell. But the self-proclaimed “Greatest of All time” reminds everyone that he’s he is rap’s version of a dynasty. “It’s like trying to compare the spurs to the Lakers or the Celtics. Yes the spurs have a lot of championships and are very successful. but you cant compare them to the Celtics or the Lakers. I am on a whole other level. a lot of these guys are the Spurs. And that is no disrespect.
LL’s new album, Exit 13, comes out in August.
He should change the title to “Exit, Stage Left” and retire for good from the rap game and just pose with his shirt off.
Take a look at LL’s intense workout routine.

It’s always SAD when We talk for the sake of talking! LL COOL J is someone that has WORKED HARD to get in Shape and keep up with it be continued hard work. As Black Folks Some Things About Us are of God.
Anyone can Hit the Gym and be in that same shape at almost any age.
He is a great model for what we can accomplish with hard work. NOT JUST IN THE GYM BUT IN EVERY DAY LIFE.

this is a beautiful man! everyone needs to have respect for this man. He is one of the 1st rappers to really put it down. He has made it thru over 20 years of this rap game. Most people fall off and he has kept his body looking great over the years. He looks better and better every year.
LL is the SH*T body wise, but as far as hip hop goes he WAS the man back in the day. As for the present I would say he is not exactly relevant…Greatest of all time…Definately NOT!! True he is the man for coming wit 13 albums I mean nobody has done that but im sorry your not relevant anymore LL sorry! Your time has passed hang it up while your still ahead and go down in history like the greats like KRS-One, Big Daddy Kane, etc.
Psycho is correct
rrc and lisa 33 have said it right!!! He looks awesome…..stop hatin’, guys!!
