I listen to my body

It is good to keep challenging yourself. But it is important to always listen to your body. That is why I have been following this routine for the last two years – three sets of hanging leg raises, three sets of hand stand, and three sets each of triceps push down, triceps dip, leg extension and lat pull down with the help of machines.

4 secrets to stay fit at the age of 80

Follow your fitness routine regularly

I exercise in the gym for 30 to 45 minutes at least 6 days a week. I do cycling there, which is enough for my cardio. I do my workout as a performance. Along with this, it is very important to take a healthy diet. I like ice cream, junk food and sweets, but instead of giving it up completely, I always eat in a limit. Sauna is necessary for me after workout. It does not make me feel tired for the whole day.

It is important to celebrate age

Elaine believes that age should be seen as a festival, not a challenge. With the right mindset and regular exercise, you can remain at your best fitness level at every age. It is possible that if I stop exercising today, I may never be able to start it again, that’s why I go to the gym every day.

positive thinking and action

If you feel grateful and happy to be alive, and you want to keep feeling good, you have to take action. If you want to take up weight lifting, start slowly. Step into the gym and see how your life changes. Be patient in the beginning and you will never regret it.
