In a recent TikTok video, Jelly Roll offered more saga advice to his millions of followers. He explained how going for a walk each morning helps to uplift his mental health.
"When I first started walking and running, I realized that even though I didn't see what it was doing for my physical health for the first couple months, because that's just how training works," Jelly Roll said. "It helps me so much in my emotional health. My mental health, my emotional wellness, like, man, just go take you a walk."
As the video continues, Jelly Roll quotes David Goggins when explaining the value of walking and the impact it can have on both your mind and your body.
"David Goggin says you got to go beat that bitch out of you first thing in the morning. So yeah. I instantly go from being angry about things to... running and meditating and turning into praying for them. It's just crazy how fast my mind shifts just in that one hour of cardio I do every morning. But it doesn't have to be an hour, y'all. It could be 15 minutes. It could be 10 minutes. Like start somewhere, anywhere. Today's a great day to start. Love y'all."
Jelly Roll Could Be Preparing for a WrestleMania Moment
Jelly Roll has undoubtedly adapted to his new lifestyle after dropping hundreds of pounds. Walking is one of the best fat-loss tools available, and it's totally free. So, his messaging is both on point and logical.
Let's be honest, there aren't many people in a better position to provide health and mental health tips. Jelly Roll has shedded the pounds in recent years, including getting under the 300lb mark so he could compete in SummerSlam 2025.
Now, it looks like he could reap the reward of that performance, as wrestling insider Dave Meltzer has noted Jelly Roll could be heading for a WrestleMania moment.
"I kind of wonder where they're going with Jelly Roll," Meltzer said. "It just feels to me they're going to build to some gimmick match with Kit Wilson, maybe a tag with The Miz because The Miz has been involved in the storyline. They could do that. I had asked about the story because there was a story about Royce Keys, and I was told that it's not Royce Keys, for whatever that's worth. I wasn't actually told that there is a match [for Jelly Roll], but when you look at it, it certainly seems like they're building it."
Jelly Roll has cracked the code to living a healthy and happy life. He's sharing the blueprint as he enjoys the journey. You've got to love him for that.
