Background
editIn the liner notes to the original album, Glenn Frey wrote of the song, "My anthem to fitness. Jack [Tempchin] and I both started working out, eating right and generally tightening up our acts. Having tried nearly every other way to feel good, we've wound up back in gym class. Who'd of thunk it!"[citation needed]
