JAKARTA - Who says the age of 60 means retirement to maintain fitness? TRUEline Hooton, a 62-year-old grandmother, proves that age is just a number. Despite being elderly and a mother of five, she still looks fit and full of energy.

Despite the challenges that come with age, she attributes extraordinary fitness to one main habit. She is now in better physical condition than when she was 18, even though she gave birth to 5 children.

"One day you wake up and suddenly it's 62 years old, and it's very different from what you imagined when you were 18 years old. My 62 year old body is very different from my body when I was 18 years old," he said, quoted by VOI from the Metro.co.uk page on Friday, February 21.

"For starters, my body has developed and given birth to five children. Yes, I have faced several physical challenges and obstacles as I got older, including three shoulder surgery, several miscarriages, osteoartritis, and surgery to break my wrist after an unwanted accident," he continued.

TRUELINE Hooton admits that his physical condition is now stronger than when he was 18 years old, thanks to 30 years of strength training.

"My heart is healthy after 35 years of regular cardiovascular exercise, and I can move smoothly," he said.

"It's not a matter of looking younger, but how we feel and function as we get older. That's really important," he added.

He attributed his extraordinary condition to acceptance of active aging, including regular exercise routines and even lifting weights. Choosing a healthy lifestyle clearly gives him proud results as he has enjoyed his last years.

Every time he uploads his Instagram, he always manages to get a lot of praise from netizens in his comments column. His followers expressed their admiration.

"I want to be like you when you grow up," commented the netizen.

"I like how you look happy and healthy in your latest photos," praised another netizen

"You look amazing at the age of 62. The better each year, the more extraordinary." said another netizen.

TRUELINE's secret may be found in its upcoming book titled "Strong: The Definitive Guide to Active Ageing", which is already available for pre-order on Amazon. The book will be released in March.
