As an offensive lineman, Kelce has no desire to have a six-pack.

Rather he seeks to maintain his burly frame for the grueling position in the NFL trenches.

“I think a lot of guys take nutrition really seriously,” Kelce told Sports Illustrated.

“There’s a level of it, right? As long as you’re in the middle, you’re going to be fine.

“Some guys go over the top and want to have six-packs (abs) and all this stuff.

“I don’t go to that level.”

And Kelce refuses to eat bland foods to maintain his weight.

“I can go to McDonald’s and eat food that I can figure out,” he added.

”I can go to Wawa, look at the menu, and figure out what to have.

“I don’t need to have brown rice with chicken breast with no flavor.

“If that’s what’s required of me to play in the NFL, I probably wouldn’t do it.”

At 6-foot-3 and 282 pounds, Kelce is extremely quick and strong for his size.

And he has maintained his high levels of performance and durability in the league thanks to his gruelling workouts in the offseason.

Kelce has won the Eagles offseason ‘championship belt’ multiple times after coaches give the players to compete against each other in events such as tug of war, agility drills, strength tests.

“It’s just a great way for all of us to work out and challenge each other. That’s what it’s all about,” he said.

“I enjoy the offseason, I enjoy competing and pushing myself and we have this competition and we all really get a kick out of it.”

Kelce also works out three or four days a week, and runs two or three times a week during the offseason.

“As long as I’m in shape going into camp, everything will kind of figure itself out,” he said.

“You don’t want to overthink it.”
