"He started out every moring in the same manner: he woke up around 8.30 or 9.00 am, had a cup of coffee and chased it down with a can of Old Milwaukee beer. And if there was any chocolate cake left over from the night before, he'd have a healthy slice of that as well."

so thats how he kept in such great shape
