The Manzo Madness Is Back!

Albie Manzo is looking pretty amazing these days. The Manzo'd with Children son started a new workout routine with Rodrick Covington of Core Rhythm Fitness, and he has the killer abs to show for it.

How to Watch

Catch up on Manzo'd With Children on the Bravo App.

I can not put into words how appreciative I am that @rodrickcovington and the @corerhythmfitness team have been a part of my life. I put up a pic a while back of a letter I wrote to myself. It was a conversation w Rodrick that made me write that letter and brought me to realize that the only way to truly get what you want in this world is to take responsibility for yourself and put the work in. The guy on the left was who I saw in the mirror that day, the guy on the right was who was pushing the pen. I am delighted to say they are two very different people ð. #NotHereToTakePart #HereToTakeOver #WeAreNotDone PS: Rodrick listen man I had to throw a filter on this thing. I was pale and you threw this photo at me out of nowhere, ok. I would have been prepared. Also, @laurenmanzo if I come in for a spray tan I would like "perpetua". #Repost @rodrickcovington with @repostapp ã»ã»ã» Transformation Thursday!!!! When making art it's about the journey more than the outcome. Commit to the journey and the results will come. ALBIE is one of the most committed human beings I've met! 2 months is a short commitment to change your life. You're worth the commitment! #commitment #trustyourcore #corerhythmfitness #love #shredded #manzofamily #albiemanzo #inspiration #nofilter

Albie caught the fitness bug after his milestone birthday, his mom Caroline Manzo recently told The Daily Dish. "He's always been that way, and since he's turned 30, he's kind of had an epiphany on where his life is going and what he wants from it kind of thing," Caroline explained. "He's had a lot of big changes in his life, and that's part of it. It's something he's passionate about."

Not only is Caroline in awe of Albie's results, but she's also impressed with his discipline. "I applaud his regimentation thought process because this kid does not sway from it," she said. "I just started the same [workout] he's on a couple weeks ago, and I don't know how the kid does it. He's been doing it for a while, and he looks amazing, and it's great."

I've gained nearly 30 pounds In the last 6 months due to my foot injury. Foot is almost healed, and now I have to take care of me. This is the guy that's going to make it happen - I'm on day #2 with the help of @rodrickcovington. As Roderick says "it's the first day of the rest of your life". I'm all in, let the journey begin. â¤ï¸ðª

As you can see, Caroline has also been on a recent fitness kick with Albie's trainer. However, she's easing herself back into working out as she continues to recover from her foot injury, swimming for one hour every day, and has not been joining Albie in his more intense workouts. "He does boxing, he does running, all kinds of stuff," Caroline said. "I'm too old for that bullsh**, so I just do my little thing here and there."
