Charles Eugster may be 93 years old, but he’s probably stronger and in better shape than you.
Eugster was pretty fit in his youth, but he fell out of shape after
spending 30 years as a dentist. As he began to get older, he noticed he
was getting fat and decided he wanted to remake his body
Eugster admits that he is vain, and that was his inspiration to begin
training six years ago at age 87. He even has a former Mr. Universe
help train him.
“The idea is to turn the heads of the sexy young 70-year-old girls on the beach,” he says.
Eugster has won titles for his fitness and medals for his rowing.
The BBC says he did 57 dips, 61 chin-ups, 50 push-ups and 48 abdominal crunches, each in 45 seconds, at a recent competition.
I’ll admit it: That’s better than what I could do. It’s not advised
for people his age to do such strenuous activity, which is what makes
Eugster such a marvel. This dude is impressive.
