CeeDee says he spends $1.3M a year on body maintenance

[jblaze2004]

I usually spend $14

Sounds like the same as Zeke. It's a shame he should have been a beast longer. He didn't take care of his body.

Seems there is a cheaper way to get the same results.

That is for Double Quarter Pounder with Bacon Hamburger and a larget size cold drink and fries.

I usually get a Diet Coke for, you know, healthy choices

Well let’s compare their work load….


Christian McCaffery 1347 carries….
Derrick Henry has 2355 carries
Saquon 1546


Zeke 2139 carries

Henry is another one of those freak of natures I never seen someone built like a defensive end run like that. But those guys can also be prone to injuries so he deserves his due. Hes for sure a workout warrior and Zeke did use to be out and about especially earlier in his career. I don’t know if I could expect him to be much more then what he is at this point of his career. Derrick Henry defied the odds but most running backs are cooked by 28.

Yes, but to be fair CMC gets a ton of usage catching the ball as well.

Emmitt Smith was the first that I heard spent money on body maintenance, I’m sure there were more before him like Walter Payton who Emmitt might have gotten that from.

I wished Emmitt had talked more to Zeke about that, I don’t know if he did but I would think he did because he talked with Marion about it but Marion didn’t listen and I believe Zeke didn’t either.
Zeke in my opinion thought that doing all the drills with cones and tires was the answer but in truth he was still not giving his body the proper rest during the offseason, the stuff he did was still wear and tear on the body

He does. But his body is also breaking down.

 

[Pass2Run]

Zeke spent at least $18K per year in piercings.

$98,000 on tequila and coke.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

I usually spend $14

LOL

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

T.O. was the first.

This, remember TO doing this also.

 

[Sammy]

I usually spend more than that. Good plastic surgeons are expensive!

 

[LovinItAll]

Hmmmm.....never heard this one before but good for him.

Several athletes say they spend that amount of money on their bodies, but I'm not sure how. Let's say they hire a personal chef who is available 24/7. What's the top end for that job, $150k? I guess the food can count, but everyone will spend that, so let's say they spend $1k/week on food. That's $52k. Supplements, $5k/yr. Can't count a workout room at home; that's a one-time purchase. Full-time masseuse available 24/7, another $100k. Personal trainer available 24/7, call it $125k.

What have I missed? I think those numbers are pretty liberal, and they add up to $432k/yr. Somebody please tell me where the other $500k+ goes.

 

[phildadon86]

If only Zeke had spent a tenth of that.

He did. It was just on drugs and booze to destroy his body. Not maintain it.

 

[SultanOfSix]

Pretty sure you can do that for A LOT less.
