How Cyrus Broacha stays fit at 55
Opening up about his toned physique, Cyrus shared, “I’ve always been into weight training. I’m just a little more careful now. My shape is better, but my size… could be better. I always loved training. During the pandemic, I cleaned up a lot. I got myself a barbell, a squat rack, a bench, and 340 pounds (154 kilos) of weight.”
In the same podcast, he revealed that he’s currently into power building, “which is a mix of both” strength and bodybuilding. Cyrus added, “I’m also doing a little backward walking to get the blood flow better.”

I don’t do cardio. I don’t walk,” he said candidly. He also opened up about his diet and fasting routine, sharing, “I don’t eat 7-7. I work out fasted, but eat immediately (after).”
