Jim Jones has said that Chrissy Lampkin has put him on a strict workout regimen, and it’s been whipping him into serious shape.
The Dipset rapper, who sat down for an interview with MadameNoir’s Listen To Black Men podcast, said he’s been consistently working out since high school, but that his longtime girlfriend’s regiment finally had him gaining some solid weight.

“When I met Chrissy I was still a little slim and she was the one that took me to the gym and showed me a few tricks about hitting that weight and gaining some weight and things like that,” Jim said around the 2-minute mark. “I definitely didn’t wanna be the slim brother with my lady looking at too many guys that was in shape, so I wanted to tighten up a little bit.”
He continued, “I figured she must like me a lot if she’s trying to put me [through that]. I guess I was a good model for her.”

The Love & Hip Hop co-stars have been together for years, but in 2019 Chrissy informed Essence that marriage wasn’t an option they were looking into.
“To be honest with you, it’s not a priority anymore,” she said. “Our relationship is in a good place. I thought that [marriage] was the natural progression, but it’s not for everybody. So, we’re good right now.”
The pair most recently starred in Season 10 of Love & Hip Hop: New York, returning to the cast for the first time since departing after Season 2.
