Rick Springfield and Dick van Dyke: Two legends in the gym

On December 13th, Hollywood legend Dick van Dyke will be 100 years old – and is still surprisingly fit, as “Jessie’s Girl” singer Rick Springfield (76) was able to determine. The two stars happened to meet in the gym.

Most recently, the elderly actor had worried his fans because he canceled an event at the last minute. But as Rick Springfield showed with a picture, the 99-year-old is doing well and he even trains diligently on different devices. “I turned a episode of Men’s Health and went to the gym, and who was there – the 99 -year -old Dick van Dyke, who trained on all devices, “. “Dick has lived in Malibu for about 30 years and is a great person,” the artist continued, and then raved about the condition of the almost 100-year-old: “I thought I would be good at 76, but fat stood out of the breast press and made a little dance step before I went!” Incredible! “

In the picture, the “Mary Poppins” star tenses the muscles of his right arm while sitting on one of the training equipment in the spacious gym and leaning on a walking stick with the other arm. Springfield kneels next to it and also lets his arm muscles play.

In January, the actor spoke about his fitness program in a episode of the podcast “Where Everybody Knows your name”, which he still completed in old age. “Someone asked: ‘What do you attribute your age and physical condition to?’ And I said, ‘I’ve always trained.’ We still go to the gym three days a week.

For his 100th birthday on December 13th, he made a job: “I will be a big party.” It was “crazy” that he was born in 1925 and has now become so old. However, this is also a curse, because he has already lost many friends over time. His wife Arlene Silver (54), with which he had closed the covenant of the marriage in 2012, added during a question and answer session at the event “Dick & Arlene van Dyke Present Vandy Camp” in May: “He survived. That is the curse when you are almost 100 years old.”
