'Don't Give Up!': 76-Year-Old Netanyahu Shares Gym Video, Shuts Down Health Concerns | WATCH VIDEO
Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has shared a video of him working out in gym. The video is being seen as an attempt by the 76year-old to shut down criticism from political rivals over his age and health concerns.
Jerusalem: Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has shared a video of him working out in gym, days after details about his prostate cancer surgery and radiation treatment became public. The video is being seen as an attempt by the 76-year-old to shut down criticism from political rivals over his age and health concerns.
'You're Capable Of Much More Than You Think'
The video showed Netanyahu training his arms on a cable machine with a young man recording his workout session. The Prime Minister then shifted to lifting weights, saying that he spends almost every morning in the gym.
While interacting with the young man, Netanyahu also told the Israeli youths to join the military, saying, “Train and don't give up. You are capable of much more than you think.”
He was also seen climbing stairs at the Prime Minister’s Office gym, sharing that he prefers walking than taking the elevator.
Post-Workout Session Snack
Following the workout session, Netanyahu was seen eating a hard-boiled egg.
When asked about protein shakes, Netanyahu jokingly replied, “Do you want those disgusting shakes?” before holding up the egg. Calling protein shakes awful, Netanyahu shared that he prefers eggs for protein.
He said, "Boiled eggs with lots of salt... Some people ban salt, but it's essential for protein."
The video was posted nearly a week after Netanyahu’s health report revealed that he had undergone surgery to remove a cancerous tumor and later received radiation treatment. The disclosure had triggered discussions in Israeli political circles regarding the Prime Minister’s health and fitness to continue leading the country during the ongoing conflict in Gaza and Iran.
The post also came after repeated remarks by Netanyahu’s political rivals over his age. Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett recently referred to Netanyahu as “approaching 80” during an interview.
