Accompanying the photos is an article detailing the former Moxy Fruvous rocker’s health habits.

There’s something wonderfully awkward about this whole piece that makes it almost endearing. But still weird. Also of note is Ghomeshi’s super-intense personal trainer John Barlis, who has somehow managed to work his way into the blurry background of every shot.
