Tyson Fury Says He’d Be Dead Without His Daily Routine

Fury has been open about his struggles with mental health after beating Wladimir Klitschko to become the heavyweight boxing world champ in 2015.

Despite being the world champ, fabulously wealthy and having a loving family—he said reaching the top of the hill meant he had nowhere left to climb.

He retired from boxing, went into depression and was drinking and doing drugs daily.

It wasn’t until Deontay Wilder (another heavyweight boxing champ) called him out in 2017 that he decided to get back to his daily routine. Running, taking the bins out, doing school runs, more training, picking up the dog poo, dinner with the family, more training—this is the daily routine Fury credits with saving his life.

Before going into more detail let’s take a quick look at Fury’s accomplishments and career.

Tyson Fury’s Morning Routine

Here is Fury’s morning routine when he is at home with his family in Morecambe, England.

Wake Up and Run

• Hydration. Tyson starts each morning with a pint of water and a dissolved Alka-Seltzer. This helps with any indigestion or hangover-related discomfort.

• 5 miles (8 km). First thing every morning—even before taking the bins to the tip—Fury completes a 5 mile run around his Morecambe, England neighborhood. He completes the run in 45 minutes and does it 5 -6 days per week to maintain his cardio endurance for boxing.

School Run

• Drive school-age kids to school. Another thing Fury loves doing before taking the bins to the tip is driving his kids to school. He has 7 kids but only 5 are school-age. He has multiple cars but his go-to is the Mercedes SUV because he can fit everyone in without problem.
• Full english breakfast. After dropping the kids off at school, Fury meets some family for breakfast at the local. He has a full english breakfast—bacon, eggs, sausages, baked beans, grilled tomato, mushrooms, toast and black pudding—to fuel up before his morning training session.

Tip Trip

• Get rid of all the garbage. Finally! Tyson can get rid of all the trash. He loads up all the rubbish into the back of his SUV so he can make a tip trip. The dump is local so he stops in on the way to his training session. Sometimes he needs to do 3 tips trips in a single week—but he loves it.
• Apple Cider Vinegar. Tyson has mentioned he takes a shot of apple cider vinegar after big meals to aid with digestion and gut health.

Training Session

• Strength and conditioning. Out of camp Fury focuses on cardio, strength and conditioning. Inside the intense camps the focus turns to boxing training and sparring. The morning run covers the cardio and so this session is focused on lifting weights and muscle endurance.
• Jump rope. To end each training session Fury does 6 x 3 mins sessions of jump rope to mimic boxing rounds. This is great for additional cardio each day.
• Kugan Cassius interview. Kugan from IFL TV is often in the gym waiting to interview Tyson. They talk about how robotic AJ is and how tiny Usyk is.
• Massage time. Tyson relieves sore and stiff muscles with his handheld massage gun during his Kugan interview to ensure a speedy recovery after his training session.

Daytime Routine

Lunch With The Wife

• Hot lunch. Tyson’s wife, Paris, is an excellent cook and she makes him lunch and dinner everyday. A typical lunch will be lamb or beef, onions and potatoes, slow-cooked in a stew.

Pick Up The Dog Poo

• Clean up Mars’ and Cash’s poo. Another one of Fury’s treasured daily rituals is cleaning up his dogs poo from the backyard. He has talked often about is rottweiler “Mars” and french bulldog “Cash”. He will use a shovel and bin bag to clean up the poo from the yard.

School Run

• Pick up the kids. Tyson has 5 kids in private school and he loves picking them up each day at 3:30pm when school is out. He often stops on the way home to get them all ice cream or lollies.

Light Boxing Training

• Light bag work. Most days of the week by this time, Fury has already done a 45 mins run and 1 hour strength training session. Despite that he loves heading to the local gym and doing some heavy bag work or teaching his boys how to box. If he was in a training camp the evening session would be 2 hours of sparring.

Evening Routine

Dinner and Family Time

• Eat. His lovely wife Paris has cooked a meal for the family with the help of her mom. This meal is a family meal where everyone gathers at a large table and talks and has fun.
• TV. After dinner some of Fury’s kids like to watch TV and some like to play games or run around. Tyson enjoys a couple Peroni while playing with his kids and talking with his family.
• Games. The older kids might break out a board game—Monopoly or Cluedo—and Tyson has been known to dominate them in both. He believes they need to learn how to lose before they can win.
• Put kids to bed. His kids have a strict bedtime of 9:00 pm. This is not necessarily fall asleep time but it is go to your room time.
• Relaxation supplements. Fury takes Ashwagandha to reduce cortisol levels and promote better sleep quality.

Private Time With Wife

• Custom made bed. Tyson is a tall man and so he needs a big mattress for sleeping. The Fury’s long ago purchased a “Texas King” size mattress which is much longer than a regular king and also about 10% wider.
• Brush teeth and floss. After Tyson and Paris spend some quality time together they both head to their lavish and private main bathroom to brush their teeth, floss and shower before bed.
• Shower. Tyson has a custom shower in his house to accomodate his advanced height.
• Sleep. Around 10 pm Fury falls asleep ready to do it all again. He often dreams of taking the bins out.
