I met morris a few times at my local gym he was here in my town working on a TV show, he is the nicest coolest guy ever!! Every time we would see each other he would remember my name and always talk to me. I never asked for a picture or autograph we just talked like regular people about work and life, so grateful to meet him he deserves all the success!

Met this dude @ the airport on the way to Atlanta. Morris looks fitter and younger in person, he also was eating the same foods he talked in the vid- very humble and grateful individual.

[@divineunique77]

I luv how human he is about it.. Admitting his downfalls, going back to get another double cheeseburger etc...as clean as I eat (90% fruit) I've done the same thing he mentioned many times over. Respect

[@365tonkatruckfit2]

Been following this Brother’s Nutrition/Fitness Lifestyle for years to help get even more creative with my own. Met a lot of OG’s like him in the gym and outside the gym that are his age and older. Shout out to all the OG’s out there helping us younger men to realize that Nutrition/Fitness is a MUST even when we are older or old men! Blessings!!

Morris is me!! When I’m dieting, and even when I’m not, I like to eat the same meal over and over. It helps me stay regimented and keeps me from spending too much time thinking about the next meal.

Yep, meal prepping really helps. Takes the guess work out of what you’re going to eat. Keep it simple

[@sparkle3000]

You are what you eat for sure. At 60 I take for granted my great diet until I eat something I shouldn't. It only takes two days before I realize how 60 really feels. Drink lots of water and get your sleep. Keto or Meditation

[@thenewjord50]

His birthday was on New Years Day and still look like he was 20 years ago. Give Morris his flowers talented but underrated actor in the game

[@Pretty30715]

Him,Larenz Tate and others still look good in their 40s or 50s. I know it's not really old but some people let themselves go.

[@christianjames92]

It seems the younger the generations get with health, nutrition, and science being so good now the guys and women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, etc that were born after a certain time are looking younger and younger. I met a chick the other day that was born in 1972 and I couldn't believe she was 50. Legitimately looked like she was 28 or 30 tops.

[@Marinegrunt0311]

I’ve been working out since I was about 25 and now I’m 59 and people think I’m in my 40’s. My daughter who is 34 years old is always tell me her friends are always saying to her that I’m fine. I find it funny and flattering but it is about the gym and your diet.
