If I'm trying to put size on for a role, then I don't do much running.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm an athlete, but I'm not a runner. I'm 5-foot-8 and stocky - not exactly a runner's type.
It is funny to me that because I can run, because I'm athletic, people tend to see that as my only asset.
When you have good runners, you always run fast. That's the motivation for me. But I have room to improve in my technique and in the start.
I never plan to run at a certain pace. All my career my motto has been 'no limits.' I don't try to run with a set time in mind, sticking to set splits, because what happens if you're ahead of your splits - are you going to slow down?
For me, I don't think about size - I focus more on being powerful and confident.
I was playing a defensive guard in 'My All American' who is a really fast runner, so a lot of my training was running. I wasn't too worried about bulking up because he was supposed to be on the small side.
For me personally, I try to use my size to my advantage where I can either slip by guys or try to create more space for myself.
When I'm not involved in an acting job I try to run 10 miles a day.
I always want to be the best and if I can't, I don't want to run.
I love to run, and I actually run quite a bit.
