The price that megastars Mary J Blige, LL Cool J, and Diddy have paid to achieve their impressive physiques can’t be assigned a mere monetary value. Not according to author and fitness trainer Mark Jenkins, the man responsible for their amazing transformations. As the chief architect behind the amazing bodies of the aforementioned stars, in addition to other clients such as Beyoncé, Busta Rhymes and De’Angelo, Jenkins believes that the physical results achieved by these stars is based on a fundamental idea that everyday Americans are capable of tapping into: determination. According to Jenkins, that alone provides the necessary advantage to turn a flabby beer belly into a glorious six pack.
I have some people who believe that the only way that these stars were capable of achieving these bodies, was because of their wealth,” he shares. “And while it does help to be able to afford the personal care of a professional, every single one of these people worked hard to achieve the bodies that you see. I can only do so much as their coach and chief motivator, but each one of these people put the time in, and worked extremely hard to achieve what you see before you.”
Jenkins put his money where his mouth is in his new book, The Jump Off: 60 Days To A Hip-Hop Hard Body, where he outlines a systematic approach to achieving a body that you can be proud of. The book, which offers heartfelt celebrity testimonials, gives Jenkins a larger platform to spread his gift. “I’m extremely proud of The Jump Off,” Jenkins states. “Through this book, I hope that I can inspire people to push themselves to achieving their full potential.”
