You can't tell by looking at him, but it's true: Friedel Meier is 72 years old. Meier trains a lot to get his body in shape. For him, age is no excuse; if health permits, everyone can do sports.
“At 72, I can easily keep up with most 20-year-olds – even though I donated a kidney a year ago,” says Friedel. Meier wasn't always a sports junkie. His change of heart didn't come until he was 18 years old, when he began to gasp while climbing stairs. “At that moment I knew I had to do something! “I wasn’t overweight, but at that time the last time I had seen the inside of a gym was ten years ago,” says Meier. During the corona pandemic he is training at home; these are his rules and five exercises that will help you get fit even after you are 60.
