Laffit Pincay Jr.
So you’re learning what it takes to play basketball, football, and other well-known sports. But what about being a jockey? For Laffit Pincay Jr., it took a strict, borderline oppressive diet. He controlled everything going in to his body, maintaining a thin riding weight of 114 pounds, and torturing himself in the process. One trainer once saw him eat one half of a peanut for a snack, then six hours later, eat the other half.
