October 8, 2022 By Paul Leave a Comment

Charles Eugster is 96 years old, but he is also a champion bodybuilder, rower, and sprinter.

There is a statistic that shows that after retirement age, depression doubles every five years. And he feels this is from feeling useless, by not making contributions to society. He also believes that age should not discourage people from getting in shape.

  • It is good to have a job and not retire.
