Healthy and Lithe

...And 114 years old! En.epochtimes.com has an article about Lu Zijian, who was born in 1893. Which means this gentleman has seen three centuries - just think about that for a moment...

Lu is, according to the article "(...) adept at martial arts and can still move a young man of around 150 pounds 15 feet away with just one push."

It is really great to read about an old master being active like this!

Still, it is kind of strange to read how he once fought a "Japanese taekwondo master" in Shanghai.

Anyhow - let's take it for what it is. If nothing else it shows how one can stay healthy and active way beyond what is normally considered old age.
