AGASSI NEW LIFE

By Robbie Pangilinan

Carlos Agassi has a new love. No, not a girl, as he admits he has no
girlfriend at the moment, but is “lonely, so I hope she comes soon.”
He is spending time for himself—working out in his own gym, sometimes
training his friends, and just taking each day as it comes.

Last seen in the ABS-CBN vampire-werewolf series Imortal, Amir is now
busy doing a Viva Films and Star Cinema film titled Private Benjamin.
His six-pack abs and lean body are enough evidences that he is fit and
healthy, contrary to long-time rumors of failing health, dialysis, and
even a death hoax several years back.

Amir Carlos Damaso Vahidi Agassi is an actor, TV host, rap artist, and
model who is a health-buff non-smoker. He works out every day,
focusing on cardio and weights at eight hours apart. He follows a
3-day low carb and 1-day high carb diet mixed with high protein, in
six to ten meals daily.

The 31-year-old hunk also takes away stress by working out and playing
basketball with his brothers and friends. He says the secret to stay
fit is making a workout routine part of one’s life and changing the
routine once in a while to keep it fresh and exciting.

The 5’10”, 185-pound Amir looks as perfect as he can get, but still
strives for “inner and outer perfection both physically and
spiritually.” He believes that beauty is what is within that emanates
physically. To be a step closer to this perfection, Amir trusts beauty
doctor to the stars Dr. Manny Calayan, who, like him, puts a high
premium on perfection.

“I plan to try Thermo Fat so I can be more lenient and enjoy a million
calories,” Amir jokingly says. Seriously, Amir will undergo the
procedure anytime soon, under the watchful eye and skilled hands of
Doc Manny, the pioneer of Smartlipo and Vaserlipo in the Philippines,
two revolutionary fat removal procedures that are safe alternatives to
traditional liposuction.

Still, the hunk actor, who was launched as a member of ABS-CBN’s Star
Circle Batch 3 in 1993, would not change anything in himself because
he believes that imperfections make you who you are. Back full time in
showbusiness, Amir would love to rap and dance again, and probably
reunite with The Hunks.

Off camera, the simple, God-fearing and down-to-earth Amir
contemplates on having his own restaurant and a fitness show. Someday
he would love to visit Europe.

But, right now, Amir is staying where he is. And we will see more of
him in the coming days. #
