Lenny Kravitz can’t believe the attention he’s received because of his unusual workout attire. Nearly a month after documenting his workout in tight leather pants, the «American Woman» singer explains his fashion choice.
«I always work out in leather pants or jeans and boots and whatever — if I’m not doing cardio», - said Lenny, 59, in an interview for Variety published on April 30. «If I’m doing cardio, obviously, I’m going to wear workout pants because I’m going to sweat everywhere. But if I’m lifting weights, I don’t sweat as much».
Another factor that plays a role in his choice of workout clothes is Lenny’s schedule for the day.
«Often I come from somewhere or I’m going somewhere and I don’t care», - he said. «I just walk in. I have 45 minutes, we work out, and I go somewhere. So I’m not doing it for effect. I didn’t do it to be so different and wear leather pants and glasses. No, I just walked in off the street».
On April 9, Lenny made headlines again when he documented his workout program on social media. Along with his trainer Dodd Romero, the rock star went to the gym in a purple shirt and matching leather pants.
«Thank God for today! Grateful. It’s never been better», - Lenny wrote alongside a video of his fitness program. «There are no shortcuts, so make the most of your day. Anything is possible. Love!»
While many followers were quick to comment on his outfit, others objected to his workout program. The New York Times wrote an article titled «Trainers Express Displeasure Over Lenny Kravitz’s Workout Video».
In his latest interview, Lenny — who was recently named the first global brand ambassador for Ray-Ban — responded to critics and reassured fans that he knows what he’s doing.
«I know my body and what it does and what it can do and how it feels, and it’s all good», - he explained. «I've trained with elite athletes, I’ve trained with football players, NFL and NBA stars. I’ve trained with MLB stars, wrestlers, boxers. I’ve played with all of them. I won’t name names, but these are all people you would know. And they will tell you that I train very seriously»
