Strahan is just as cordial off camera (and via phone) as he is in front of one, which is why millions of viewers tune in to him every day. This likable football star who s been described by many as a gentle giant (he s 6 5 and weighs 240 pounds) quips about how envious he is that South Floridians can bask in the sun while people up north freeze. But that s not the only reason he loves it here. You ve got to be in shape to live in South Florida, says the retired NFL defensive end for the New York Giants. There are too many opportunities to walk around without a shirt on. The weather makes you want to be healthy. It encourages you to have an active lifestyle. Hence, the smoothie. It includes YOU VE ONLY GOT ONE BODY SO YOU HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF IT. Michael Strahan spinach, kale and almond milk and he drinks one every day after he s finished taping the show. It might not sound appetizing but Strahan promises it tastes good. As he s gotten older, the 42-year-old has traded in junk food for fresh, healthy fare and while he s not as active as when he was on the field, he makes it a priority to work out for an hour a day, five days a week. It s a great way to relieve stress and tension and it makes you look good, says Strahan. When I retired, my back was aching and my shoulders hurt. But for a body that s been in the NFL for 15 years, I need to keep moving. Now I feel like I m 25 years old again.
