    That was the most inspiring fitness video on you tube that I saw. He looked 30 years younger.
    I have been working out since age 15 in 1983 and have not stopped since. Whole body exercises are extremely important and cardio too.
    Most importantly you have to have fun at the same time.

      That's kind of the idea. Do you want to live your life fat and out of shape or healthy? Besides most people would prefer to live the longest healthiest life they possibly can. Exercise and a healthy diet are usually the way to do it.

    In a speech i heard, it was said, just like muscles get stronger with use. It's a well known fact, but i started thinking, why not use my muscles more and get stronger since I'm doing nothing and getting weaker. I get aerobic exercise, but like he said it's not enough. Strength is so important in advancing years.

    • @razoredge6476
      @razoredge6476 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      True. Muscle in men will atrophy with old age if not used. When you are young your testosterone levels are high and keeps plenty of muscle on your body. But as you get older and testosterone levels go down muscle will also if you do not use it . That's why weight training is so good.

    Strength training is different from running. At 75, running was put aside and strength training became my focus. I can't do both. But now I have new legs, and pullups are being trained very gradually. My legs are sort of like they were when they were at their best, bouncing, leaping, but that was when squatting had begun. There may be a balance, but that may happen later.

Never forget a body at rest stays at rest and a body in motion stays in motion. If he can do this at 97 anybody can do it , just get off your ass and move.. RIP

  • @PeteZelchenko
    @PeteZelchenko 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great, inspiring and all that -- and his passing just after this video's release was a loss -- but perhaps an even better revolution would have been for him to focus on his expertise as a dentist. Gingivitis has a direct and very keen link to heart disease. Dr. Eugster's relatively good health may have been just as heavily influenced by good dental self-care as by aerobic work. This means, at a minimum, a daily flossing routine that ensures zero gingivitis and therefore minimized regular bacterial transfer via the gums through to the arteries. Dental hygiene is an underexamined problem worldwide, and yet dentists and dental hygienists largely lack a particularly good rubric, as well as the patience, for drumming proper methods into patients. Want to help 8 billion people live healthier lives? Maybe it should start at a very young age, with all of the basics, including proper dental care.
