Our fathers are in better shape than us! It has to be the clean air, diet, exercise and of course the no-stress lifestyle.

If he does not inspire the rest of us to be fit and keep fit, nothing else will ever be able to.

I sincerely aspire to be like him when I am 90.

Wishing more strength and long life to your Dad @paramiyer_

Well, remains to be seen how many of these commenting tweeters will actually translate that inspiration into a workout.

And you guys too - stop making excuses about getting fit. Remember that if a 90-year-old can, so can you!
