Talking about "people" retirement age", the first thing that comes to mind is grandmothers near the entrance and old men playing dominoes in the park. But old age can be completely different.
The selection deliberately does not mention “stars” such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Hulk Hogan and others. Because many people like to blame Hollywood artists for preserving good shape until old age, in that they sit exclusively on plastic surgery, hormones, etc. Therefore, only athletes and ordinary people.

Moreover, when he began to walk on crutches, he lost his balance and fell down the stairs, again injuring his hip. He spent 4 months in wheelchair, before resuming his attempts to walk on crutches.

As a natural bodybuilder, Chet Yorton doesn't have a clear distinction between competition form and off-season form. He was constantly in excellent shape and participated in many competitions. Chet is also known as a bodybuilder with good strength.

07. Robbie Robinson (64 years old in the photo).
Since childhood, I have been interested in sports. The competitive career is one of the most impressive. Winner of the title Master Olympia 1994. One of the few bodybuilders, contemporaries of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who remain in good shape to this day. And not only good for her age. Many of the young people would envy such prominent and voluminous muscles. A true fan of bodybuilding, who considers it an art, just like painting and architecture.

Legendary French bodybuilder nicknamed "Black Panther", actor and writer. He is best known for his participation in the film Pumping Iron, which describes the events surrounding the 1975 Mr. Olympia tournament, where the prizes were shared by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Serge Nubret and Lou Ferrigno. Nubre also outlined his thoughts regarding this tournament, where literally three bodybuilding legends competed, in his book “Me...Me and God.” By the way, unlike most bodybuilders, Nubre always continued hard training right up to the performance itself, without giving myself any rest.

People who look younger than their age feel much better than others at their age, and this, of course, has to do with genes. This is exactly what scientists are sure of. According to the results of a recent study, it was found that ultraviolet radiation has the greatest influence on genetic changes in our body. It is the sun that is the “hero of the occasion.” The point is that we are all born with a certain genetic makeup and everything that happens next is external factors influencing changes in our body.

Thus, the researchers tested skin samples from 158 women from the Caucasus aged 20 to 74 years. For the experiment, areas of the skin of the face and hands were chosen, since they are the ones most exposed to mechanical damage and ultraviolet radiation. A comparison was also made using the skin of the buttocks as an example, because this skin is the best protected on our body.

In addition to the skin samples, saliva samples were also analyzed to conduct DNA tests. As a result, it turned out that genetic changes in the body occur largely due to the influence of environmental factors (imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body’s ability to detoxify the negative effect of this process), as well as exposure to sunlight on the skin. It is these 2 factors that cause changes in the skin over time.

What surprised the researchers most, however, was that participants who looked younger than their chronological age, skin genes that corresponded to younger age group. This means that in women who looked significantly younger than their peers, cells were renewed better, and collagen production was significantly increased.

“We were very surprised to identify a group of women who not only looked much younger than their years, but also provided us specific facts how healthy one can be overall and overall, regardless of chronological age,” commented Dr. Kimball.

New research has helped scientists determine how individual genes may help slow down the aging process of the skin. Until more is known, women who look younger than their age can rest assured that their bodies actually age much more slowly than their peers.
