“Down 7kg” – Danny Cipriani’s stunning body transformation after quitting rugby

Former England and Wasps fly-half Danny Cipriani has slimmed right dan since leaving Bath a year ago

“I’m just keeping it fit and enjoying my training,” revealed Cipriani, who admitted a return to rugby is nowhere near to Rugby Pass.

“I think the best part at the moment is your whole career you’re told how to train, what to do, and so on and so. 

“I’m away from that, I’ve enjoyed my fitness, my movement more than ever. It’s really enjoyable. Playing lots of football.

“I also feel my best rugby could be in front of me,” said the 35-year-old. “Or I might never play again. And physically, I feel world-class.”

Danny Cipriani slimmed down:

Cipriani, who has played for Wasps, Melbourne Rebels, Sale Sharks, Gloucester, and Bath, announced he is currently participating in informal training sessions with England’s Jonny Wilkinson.

“I kick and mess about. I shoot basketball once a week with Jonny Wilkinson. We did kicking a couple of days ago… He’s an exceptional human. We talk about life man.

“We do kicking together. I really enjoy it a lot. I get a lot out of it.”

When asked about who he’d like to join, he mentioned La Rochelle, Harlequins and Bristol Bears.

Amazing body transformations of 6 rugby stars, including McCaw and Pocock

These rugby players have enjoyed a remarkable body transformation over the years, with some bulking up while others seriously slimmed down.

RICHIE MCCAW

The All Blacks legendary captain has revealed he’s dropped 17kg since retiring, shifting what he called ‘unnecessary rugby muscle’.

Since hanging up his boots following their 2015 World Cup triumph, McCaw has become obsessed with ultra-hardcore marathons and has shifted a lot of that weight to give him a speed advantage.

The 41-year-old, who weighed 107 kg, is now closer to 90kg since dropping the weight.

DAVID POCOCK

The Wallabies legend started out as an skinny 78kg teen who worked day in and day out to transform himself, with his size and strength came at a cost, Pocock told Australian Story.
