“GCB” stud Mark Deklin: “I think generally in life, I’m hetero-fit. … But gay-fit and straight-fit are two different things”
Anyone who has watched ABC’s terrifically fun Sunday night series GCB (please be renewed!) knows that Mark Deklin is one fit dude.
The actor, who plays closeted gay cowboy husband Blake, tells E! Online that he works out hard before his shirtless scenes.
“Generally, I keep myself fit with cardio and normal workouts but early on I went to the producers and I said, ‘Look I’m 44 years old. I need a heads-up if you’re going to ask me to be shirtless. Give me a weekend or so.'”
“I think generally in life, I’m hetero-fit,” Deklin added. “But gay-fit and straight-fit are two different things. I was like, You know what, I really gotta step it up. It’s not enough to sort of be generally athletic—I’ve got to be shredded.”

Never heard there was a difference being gay-fit and hetero-fit – interesting distinction. Not another distinction?? I know in my gym in Palm Springs there are more gay men in my gym than straight men at least at the hour I exercise and I know the gym members. I dated a guy who said he could make the distinction of a straight man over a gay man by the lack of or due to the crease in his khaki pants — ohh well.
