Looking at a picture of Andy, from Coventry, one might think he is a young man possibly in his thirties but Andy is 56, and not just that, he has 7 grandchildren.
Andy Wilkinson who works as a fitness trainer says drinking lots of water is the best remedy to a clear skin and that due to his six packs abs, he gets mistaken for his daughter’s boyfriend rather than her father.
He said to Metro UK: ‘If I’m on holiday with my six-pack out, I get approached by ladies in their thirties and I’ve been mistaken for my daughter’s partner rather than her father on occasion, which is embarrassing. ‘My friends also think it’s hilarious when we go out to shock people with the fact that I’m a grandfather of seven!’
‘Genetics help but there is really no secret besides hard work and diet. ‘Stress is a massive age shower as well so I try to not get myself worked up about anything. ‘I have a personal mantra which is “everything will be ok” and that keeps me calm and carries me through.
’
Andy who is now in a relationship with a 51-year-old woman continued: ‘I was always interested in looking good but it was in my thirties that I radically assessed what I was eating. ‘I realised there was no need to have protein shakes, bars or supplements to get that beach body look, it was about eating healthy foods, portion control and cutting down on carbs as you age.
‘I also drink plenty of water too – you can put all the creams in the world on your face but water is what matters most when it comes to good skin. And I might occasionally have the odd glass of red wine, but I don’t drink much alcohol otherwise.’
‘I think trying to limit stress is also one of the most important factors in aging well,’ he says. ‘You look at centurions and nothing bothers them – they’re so stress-free. ‘I know it’s hard to do but I try to focus on living in the now, enjoying the present moment and not dwelling on the past and future.’ ‘I’m living proof that you can still be fit and toned in your fifties and I hope I can motivate inspire people. I feel very lucky to do what I do as a personal trainer and It’s my passion to help others.’
