Gabriel Corrado, one of Argentina's most iconic television leading men, surprised everyone by sharing his detailed daily routine during his appearance on Otro Día Perdido (El Trece, Channel 13). At 65 years old, the actor maintains an enviable physique through habits he practices with remarkable consistency.
For context: El Trece is one of Argentina's major broadcast television channels, and Otro Día Perdido is a popular mid-morning talk show hosted by veteran media personality Mario Pergolini.
«I get up at 7:30, 8 at the latest, I drink two glasses of warm water, then I go out for a walk or a jog because I find the gym very boring»
— Gabriel Corrado
When Pergolini asked if he maintains this routine every single day, Corrado answered honestly: «Almost every day», making it clear that consistency is the foundation of his approach.
Corrado explained that he doesn't eat lunch. His first substantial meal comes after filming his show Estamos en una on TV Pública (Argentina's public broadcasting network): «Around 5:30 in the afternoon I have green tea with some nuts or a date».
Regarding his evening routine, he shared: «I try to have dinner around 8 at night, and that's when I might have some meat or fish. Before, I used to have trouble sleeping and needed to take something, but now I've stopped everything and I take magnesium to help me sleep».
Magnesium is a mineral supplement that many people use to support relaxation and improve sleep quality, as it helps regulate neurotransmitters that calm the nervous system.
Pergolini asked if he drinks alcohol or goes out to eat with friends. Corrado's response was clear: «Yes. And if there's a pizza and I want to eat it, I eat it, of course». The actor demonstrated that his discipline isn't rigid—he allows himself to enjoy social moments without guilt.
