This incredible man looks fantastic at the age of 72 an many young athletes are jealous of his appearance.
Yang Xinming from China has been training with heavy weights every day for the past 40 years. He claims that the secret of his young appearance is squatting with with a 170kg barbell.
Xinming found himself in bodybuilding in the 80s and his main inspiration was Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 1983, the athlete won his first competition.
“Today it is very convenient to work out. You just need to go to gym. But 40 years ago we had to make barbells and dumbbells from scrap metal”, tells Yang.
The man has a special diet mainly composed of protein and fiber. He starts his day with a morning jog, then goes to gym and starts his workout with weights. Unlike many athletes, Yang never skips leg day or 17-kg-barbell squats.
“Mr. Xinming has relatively better physical health than many young people in their early 30s. I am pretty sure this is thanks to sports and his workouts”, says Yang’s physician.
Yang plans to keep training until he is at least 85 years of age. He believes that everyone should maintain their physical, as well as mental strength as long as possible.
