All about balance! <\/span>Danny Trejo<\/a> is committed to his wellness regimen filled with exercise, healthy food, self-care, and more \u2014\u00a0and he\u2019s telling ET about his well-rounded approach while celebrating his partnership with Sandbox VR for their <\/span>Deadwood Valley Zombod challenge<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

“<\/span>Sandbox VR<\/a> is known for bringing family and friends together. … It’s wild how real everything feels in virtual reality. You feel like you’re really fighting zombies \u2014 or getting eaten by them,” the <\/span>Machete<\/span><\/em> actor, 80, says.<\/span><\/p>\n

“People feel more connected after they have a shared experience like trying to save humanity. Sometimes technology can make people feel more alone, but Sandbox VR is all about community,” he adds.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Trejo isn’t busy immersing himself in virtual reality game experiences, the <\/span>Breaking Bad <\/span><\/em>star enjoys hosting fun game nights for his loved ones.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We used to have friends and family come over for Animal Crossing, but now we mostly enjoy board games,” he shares.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regardless of what he’s playing, in order to take home the winning prize, Trejo relies on a full mind, body and soul approach to feel strong and ready.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I always start with walking. Walking is the healthiest form of exercise and good for the heart. Sometimes I walk the dogs individually and then I add in some bench pressing, light weights, and do crunches. I just keep moving,” he explains.<\/span><\/p>\n

As for his diet, the restaurateur reveals, “I start my mornings with eggs, huevos rancheros and sometimes oatmeal. For lunch, or anytime, I eat tacos because they’re easy. I focus on lots of protein like fish, chicken, pork and vegetables. I keep it clean and simple.”<\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to his emotional wellbeing, Trejo stays grounded through meditation and gratitude practices. “I meditate for half an hour a day in my yard and go over the week. It’s important to get your scale right and everyone needs balance. I also give thanks to God every day for keeping me on the green side of the grass,” he notes.<\/span><\/p>\n
