Colorado head coach Deion Sanders has been grabbing the headlines as he embarks on a 21-day gym challenge, determined to redefine fitness for his followers. Despite multiple surgeries on his calves and thighs, Coach Prime, at 56, refuses to let age define him.
Taking his New Year's resolutions seriously, Coach Prime is aiming to reclaim his playing-day fitness and physique. In an Instagram story, he shared his rigorous workouts, accompanied by a fiery rap performance. The clip posted by IG account @uninterrupted captioned the post:
"THEY CALL HIM PRIMETIME 🗣️ @deionsanders dropping gems ‼️
His recent Instagram posts featured laps around the Buffs' practice pitch, demonstrating his dedication. In a recent conversation with his son, Deion Sanders Jr., Coach Prime even detailed his intense sprint routine, challenging conventional notions of age-related limitations.
Addressing past struggles, Sanders confronted critics who overlooked his hospital visits and surgeries. In a recent Instagram story by Undeterred, the two-time Super Bowl winner was seen engaging in accelerated cardio, breathing heavily but delivering motivational words to his followers.
Coach Prime's journey to recovery is not only a personal quest but also a challenge to the Buffs' strength and conditioning coaches who lost a pull-up challenge to the NFL legend.
