Now that I'm on "American Gladiator", the day's hectic. You've got interviews, radio shows to do; you're pretty much on their beck and call. So, it's a lot of travelling, a lot of appearances, when you're not shooting. When you are shooting, it's up at 6, you're at the set at 7 o'clock warming up, working out on the machines, getting ready for a tape day, and then you film 16 hour to 20 hour days. Barely get some sleep, and then right back up, do it again. But it's only for about 3 weeks. It's just a lot of fighting. After that, a nice little vacation and then back on the tour doing this kind of stuff: radio shows, TV shows, which is actually a blast.
