Saw this on ESPN. JT has a blog about his dancing with the stars experience, a few excerpts (Link: http://sports.espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=3305195) below:
I also got a text from Coach Sparano after the first show. "Great job," he said. "You looked nervous, you looked a little winded because you were nervous, but great job.'' I told Coach Sparano I really appreciated the support. Just a simple text message. It was nice to get.
I'll be up at 7:30 and go lift. Then I'll head over to the dance studio and I'll dance from 11 to 2. Then I'll eat lunch for an hour and then come back and dance another three hours. I'll dance six hours a day. It's a different training for a minute-and-a-half or two-minute dance. In football you train to play 10 second plays for 60 minutes. But there's no better way right now for me to get in shape and burn fat than what I'm doing. I've got more lean muscle than I've had in probably 10 years. I'm seeing my abs again. I was getting a little chubby smoking cigars and playing golf.
The funniest line from his blog I thought was:
When I first got to the show, we had to do something they call "Title Shoots.'' It's a day full of photos and interviews. So I walk into the dressing room and see this dancer guy putting on a onesie—like the kind that babies wear. He's having a hard time strapping this thing on, trying to reach through to snap the snap. I was afraid he was going to ask me to help him out. So I walked out and went to my partner and asked her what he was doing. She explained how it helps keep your clothes tucked in when you're dancing. I told her right then and there—that ain't happening for me.
Supposedly, all dancers wear 'em to keep their shirts in, so you don't look like a mess. But, there has to be another way. Last week I wore a vest to cover up, but this week, I just have a shirt and a pair of pants. I'm going to call the Dolphins equipment guy to get some two-way tape or something, maybe sew my shirt to my pants. I'll use shoelaces to tie it down around my ankles if I have to. But I'm not putting on a onesie.
