Chris Jericho Says He Doesn’t Lift Weights No More Because His Joints Are Too Messed Up These Days

Lee South Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara vs Aussie Open Indianapolis, IN AEW Dynamite 9/6/23

Chris Jericho opened up about his physique.

For 35 years, Chris Jericho has reinvented himself in many different ways whether it was his look, moves, or the alignment he had with certain wrestlers. Now, Jericho is deep at that age where many expect him to retire, but for the former Undisputed Champion, just feels like he is getting started.

Jericho recently opened up during an appearance on the ‘Adam Carrolla Show‘ where the current World Champion of Ring Of Honor said he doesn’t lift weights any more because of how messed up his joints are from wrestling for three decades.

“It really is focused on diet now more than anything,” Jericho said. “I don’t lift weights, per se, anymore cause my joints are getting too messed up. I really enjoy that for a cardio workout. It’s good for the form and for the definition as well.”

Jericho won the ROH World Championship in a Ladder Wars match against Mark Briscoe on the October 23 edition of AEW Dynamite.
