Dick Van Dyke, 99, Works Out Like a Man Half His Age

Dick Van Dyke will turn 100 years old on December 13, but the television legend has no plans to slow down.

One secret behind his youthful energy? He never skips a workout. In an excerpt of his new book 100 Rules for Living to 100: An Optimist’s Guide to a Happy Life, published in The Times, the Tony-, Emmy-, and Grammy-winning star revealed his extensive routine at age 99.

Putting many millennials and Gen-Xers to shame with his dedication to wellness, Van Dyke writes that he visits the gym three times a week. “If I miss too many gym days, I really can feel it—a stiffness creeping in here and there,” he writes, adding, “If I let that set in, well, God help me.”
