Garth Brooks Opens Up About His Weight Loss Journey in New Interview

Garth Brooks is feeling like his younger self! The country music superstar recently wrapped up a 5-night performance in Ireland, and when talking to the press before the event, the 60-year-old revealed that he’s back to the weight he was at age 35.

Garth was inspired to get in shape after revisiting the concert hall from 25 years ago.

He said, “You want to try to be as fit as you can. Because my job is to get to everyone in that stadium. And we have two and a half hours to get it done. So we will be moving a lot. And physically I wanted to not have that as an obstacle.”
