At 93, Dr Charles Eugster cuts a dapper figure in his navy suit and matching silk handkerchief and tie.
But he looks just as good in the Lycra gym suit he has on underneath, ready to spring into action like a nonagenarian superhero.
This former dentist took up bodybuilding just six years ago, aged 87, yet looks very at home surrounded by the whirring fitness machines.
His reasons for picking up weights in his 80s are simple. "The idea is to turn the heads of the sexy young 70-year-old girls on the beach," he says.
Disappointed he was becoming overweight, Dr Eugster joined a bodybuilding club and decided to hire a former Mr Universe to train him into shape.

That'll be me in 40 years time! 😉
