Jason Kelce Shows Off Weight Loss Transformation After NFL Retirement

After leaving the NFL, Jason Kelce went back to the field to see the Philadelphia Eagles practice, where he displayed his incredible weight loss achievements.

In a video released by X on Monday, August 5, the former athlete was seen watching his old squad practice for the next football season while sporting black basketball shorts and leggings, a green T-shirt, and a sun hat.

Jason had begun the “process” of reducing weight in April, and his figure had visibly shrunk, particularly in the lower body and around the core. During an episode of the “New Heights” podcast, the Ohio native, together with his younger brother Travis Kelce and guest Arnold Schwarzenegger, introduced his new health and fitness regimen and disclosed his weight loss objective.

“I’ve retired. Throughout my career, I played 295 [pounds]. I’m attempting to drop to 250 or 260. Lose two pounds a week is my objective. At the time, Jason stated, “I want to lose it but maintain my muscle mass.” “I’m attempting to keep an eye on my fats, carbohydrates, and protein to make sure I’m hitting at least one pound per body weight.”

Given that Arnold, 77, is a bodybuilding legend who won seven Mr. Olympia titles, the program seemed to be the ideal opportunity to discuss his weight loss objectives.

“The most important thing is that you slowly decrease body fat and increase body muscles,” the actor from Terminator said to Jason. Simply swap them out. It’s not solely related to the weight.

Jason disclosed later in the talk that he “got down to like 285 [pounds]” the week before.

There are various approaches to this. “F-k no, I’m not doing that,” Jason remarked, “I personally don’t subscribe to doing extreme diets like going all vegan or all carnivore or keto.”

Two months later, Jason had a meeting with GQ that resulted in his newfound daily routine—which included losing weight and taking time off from his family.

“I look forward to dropping some of the pounds that I put on throughout my NFL career. I weighed 295 for the duration of that time. I want to avoid becoming too little. In a June 26 story, Jason made a serious jest to the journal, saying, “I think a lot of guys, especially offensive linemen, lose too much weight, and then they look like bobbleheads because their neck gets so small, but their head stays the same size.” “So, for some reason, I think that at 250 to 260, I’ll still be large and content with my appearance without having a six-pack. However, I will still be able to somewhat possess that stature.

At the time, Jason disclosed that he weighed 277 pounds and was “almost 20 pounds down.”

To be honest with you, it’s difficult to envision losing another almost twenty pounds. However, my back feels better already,” he said. “My knees feel better already. Thus, gaining an additional 20 pounds should help that become considerably more skilled at playing with my kids [Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett].
