Healthy in So Many Ways...

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

I was wondering what I'd post today, when I saw this.

Joe - Bucharest, September 2011.



We all know Joe looks great and very healthy, but I'm routinely struck at how healthy he is overall; physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. He has a balance in his life that some people could find enviable. He just seems to live well, in all parts of his life. There are lots of reasons Joe is attractive, this is a big one for me.

This was part of an article for a fitness magazine. Many thanks to @flaninfo on twitter for posting the English translation.

Well, I don't know much about Joe's emotional and spiritual health :) But yes, physically he's very fit and healthy. Gorgeous on many levels. And still, invariably the most beautiful human being on this planet :)

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

Well, of course, none of us know *personally* about his spiritual and emotional health. ;) But my *perception* is based on just how he talks, what he says, and how he behaves at least in the conversations I've had with him. What he says when he talks about his family, his perceptions on society, and his career, and, sometimes, what he doesn't say, says a lot too, when you just quietly observe. And then there's what his cast mates say about him.

Like you say, gorgeous on many levels. :)

I agree--he is very fit, healthy and gorgeous--on all levels!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

exactly. You said it much better than I. I think I'm still business trip/jet lagged. ;)

"I'm routinely struck at how healthy he is overall; physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually"

THIS ♥

I've been fortunate to meet quite a few famous people, and it can be a very mixed blessing (there's a reason they say never meet your heroes...) I have to say that Joe really impressed me - even if his attempt to say something Welsh was horrific :D

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

LOL it was the thought that counts.

and yes, I have the same opinion. Of course none of us know him personally, but its more what he conveys even when appearing publicly.

[hanorganaas.livejournal.com]

Oh my lord, that face, those eyes....

-grabs Kolya's harpoon- I'm on the hunt again.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

LOL Happy hunting ;)

Beautiful pic.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

oh definitely. :)

[sheplover928.livejournal.com]

This picture really is wonderful of Joe!! He looks fantastic!!

[toomuchfandom.livejournal.com]

seeing this pic made me squeal in delight and then I had to take a cold shower...

damn, that man is hot.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

LOL yes! The pic is very hot! I love the half smile and he just seems very relaxed in it. Very casual.

[toomuchfandom.livejournal.com]

very nommy

[admiralandrea.livejournal.com]

He really is gorgeous! Doesn't he follow some sort of Buddhist type philosophy?

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

I have no idea, i just have the impression from what he says, how he seems to live his life, and the perception he coveys in interviews and answering fan questions.

[gaffsie.livejournal.com]

*g* It looks like a picture for a gym ad.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

That would make me go to the particular gym the ad was for. ;)

[ffergus.livejournal.com]

Hehe, I actually know that particular gym :)
You'd love it here, there's also a big pool, including a heated outdoor pool (it's a bit strange to see people swimming outside at freezing temps...)

My hairdresser used to be located on the same floor until this summer, just before Joe arrived in Bucharest.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

rats! Too bad! You could've got a haircut and went sightseeing at the same time. heheheh

[dinabr.livejournal.com]

I want him in my gym :)

[dinabr.livejournal.com]

I don't care if he advertises gyms, supermarkets, bicycles or vegetables. I'll buy anything ... LOL

[ffergus.livejournal.com]

For sure the colourful background adds quality to the picture, but undeniably Joe brings the light to it.
Hope the English version is passable for the native speakers, I've tried to keep it consistent with Joe's previous interviews and way of speaking.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

Really appreciate the effort. :) It made sense and was fun to read. I adore the picture!

[sheplover928.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much for sharing the pic and interview--Very much appreciated!!!!!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

Agreed! Wow. *melts* I can even ignore the tattoos and look at that bicep! ;)

[dinabr.livejournal.com]

Damn ... LOL

[valika56.livejournal.com]

He looks great. Thank you for linking the report!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

you're welcome! I enjoyed the article as well.

[stella-pegasi.livejournal.com]

Oh my....he is the most gorgeous man alive. I don't like tattoo's and he even makes tats look good.

Gorgeous....omg, those eyes.

Great pic, thanks for finding.....

[sheplover928.livejournal.com]

I dont like tattoos either, but damn if the man can make anything appealing!!!!

[sheplover928.livejournal.com]

Reread my comment and i meant that he can make anything look appealing and damned good!!!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

hehehe... I agree on all points ;)

[dinabr.livejournal.com]

The WorldClass gym magazine sure knew who to interview :)

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

LOL for sure! Great taste! ;)

[jantoscaper.livejournal.com]

i think this pic goes to my file with the best pics of him. I like it very much and the interview was nice to.
I want to see him more on screen. miss him.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

me too. and agreed on the pic, its fantastic :)

[djin7.livejournal.com]

I nearly keeled over when I saw this. good god. Awesome pic hunting, thank you!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

Hehehe... umm... yeah. that pic made my head go pitter patter! *happy sigh*

[ayouas.livejournal.com]

Well, the healthy, balanced lifestyle sure pays off - he makes 45 (or 44, when this would have been taken) look good. Ridiculously, deliciously, wildly good.

Thanks for the interview and *gulp* my new favorite photo.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

agreed. he looks *fantastic* :D

YW. Wish I could take credit, but I just helped spread it to a wide audience :)

[dinabr.livejournal.com]

He is "Flantastic" :)

[rogerpittman.livejournal.com]

Now THAT is the kind of photo that can inspire a person to work out.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

oh most definitely! ;)

[ninja007.livejournal.com]

He looks so happy! Really lovin' this photo. He's not stressed and looks really, really happy.

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

yes! he looks happy and... content? :)

[lizlou57.livejournal.com]

He looks great! Relaxed, happy and fit! The epitome of what life should be!!

[sgafan.livejournal.com]

oh yes, exactly! :D
