The 45-year-old doesn't look his age at all, thanks to his ripped body which fans would know he puts a lot of effort into maintaining. It didn't come as a surprise when he named his YouTube channel "Gym Jong Kook" (pretty witty, we must say), considering it's literally a universal fact that he spends a considerable amount of time in the gym.
His channel has already surpassed one million subscribers too!

His very first video included a thirst-inducing thumbnail showing off his buff physique, which was more than enough to entice fans and other exercise junkies to click into.
He also hilariously revealed that he "goes insane when someone takes a long break" while working out, so people tend to go MIA on him after just one exercise session together.

Kim Jong Kook made sure to include a disclaimer that he doesn't "force people to work out if they don't want to", but the video cuts to him assisting his fellow Running Man member, Haha, in his exercise. Funnily enough, Haha looked like he was in agony and on the verge of tapping out!
The edits in his first video already shows comedic potential. His subsequent uploads will surely be a fun watch!

He will also be sharing more about his meal plans in future videos so viewers can take inspiration from them and kickstart their own healthy eating journey.

A compilation of his transformation from 1995 to 2020 was included towards the end of the video, and it shows how he went from being lean to muscular. He also said that even though he's not an expert, he will try to share more about his passion for and experiences in exercising to motivate everyone.
