"93-Year-Old's Fitness Offers Lessons on Aging"

Richard Morgan, a 93-year-old four-time world champion in indoor rowing, serves as an exemplar of fit, healthy aging, with the heart, muscles, and lungs of someone half his age. A recent case study on his training, diet, and physiology suggests that active older individuals can provide valuable insights into aging. Despite starting regular exercise at 73, Morgan's fitness routine has led to remarkable physical capabilities, with his body composition and cardiovascular health comparable to much younger individuals. His example highlights the potential for exercise to slow the effects of aging and maintain a strong, capable body at any age.
