Dick Van Dyke<\/strong><\/a> isn\u2019t letting his age get in the way of a workout!<\/p>\n

Rick Springfield,<\/strong> 76, shared a photo via Instagram<\/a> on Friday, September 26 of the Mary Poppins<\/em> star, 99, flexing his muscles at the gym.<\/p>\n

Clearly impressed by Van Dyke\u2019s commitment to fitness, especially at his age, the musician quipped, \u201cI thought I was doing well at 76.\u201d<\/p>\n

Springfield shared more context behind the photo in the post\u2019s caption.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tDick Van Dyke is 98 years old, and he couldn\u2019t be happier. He and his wife, Arlene Silver, met at the SAG Awards in 2006 and tied the knot in 2012, despite Silver being 46 years younger. For Van Dyke, that didn\u2019t matter. He recalled meeting Silver, 52, during a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight\u2019s [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cFilming an episode of Men\u2019s Health<\/em> and I went to the gym and who should be there but 99-year-old Dick Van Dyke<\/a> working out on every machine,\u201d he wrote. \u201cDick has lived in Malibu for about 30 years and is an awesome human being. I thought I was doing well at 76, but Dick got up from the chest press machine and did a little dance step before I left! \u2764\ufe0f Amazing!\u201d<\/p>\n

The Chitty Chitty Bang Bang<\/em> star has spoken previously about his workout regime<\/a>, including during an appearance on Ted Danson\u2019s<\/strong> \u201cWhere Everybody Knows Your Name\u201d podcast in January 2025.<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cSomebody said: \u2018To what do you attribute your age and physical condition?\u2019\u201d Van Dyke said. \u201cI said: \u2018I\u2019ve always exercised three days a week.\u2019 We go to the gym, still, three days a week, and I think that\u2019s it.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the podcast episode, Danson, 77, recalled often seeing Van Dyke at the gym in Malibu.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I got there early enough, I would see you literally work out on some weight machines, and then \u2014 almost like you were doing circuit training\u00a0 \u2014 you would, not walk, to the next machine, you\u2019d dance!\u201d Danson said.<\/p>\n

The Cheers<\/em> alum continued, \u201cYou literally danced to the next machine! And I watched that for a couple of weeks, and finally I talked to you about your exercise, and you said that you would come to the gym and work out\u2026 and then you would go home and swim laps for however [long], and then you would get back into bed and take a nap.\u201d<\/p>\n

As well as confirming Danson\u2019s recollection of his workout routine was accurate, Van Dyke added he also regularly does other types of exercises.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m doing a lot of stretching and yoga-type things. Sit ups. And they have machines\u2026 something for almost every exercise,\u201d Van Dyke added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Springfield has also previously shared how he maintains his fit physique in his 70s, crediting his music career as being one of the reasons he\u2019s able to stay in shape.<\/p>\n
