Toshisuke Kanazawa, 90 year old Japanese bodybuilder, competed in the 2026 IFBB World Fitness and Bodybuilding Championships in Santa Susann, Spain. 


Mr. Kanazawa was born in Shimane Prefecture in 1936 and was a gifted swimmer in high school. At the age of 24, he won the Mister Japan title, which he won again three years later. In 1967, he competed in the Mr. Universe competition in Montreal, alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger. Mr. Kanazawa finished fourth in that event. 


Since turning 80, he has won six World Masters championships. He credits clean living for his longevity and his physical abilities. He has never smoked or drunk alcohol, and gave up meat and fish decades ago. He has never been seriously ill. He currently trains at a gym in Hiroshima two hours a day, six days a week. He said he wants to be a bodybuilder until the day he dies. 


Amazing!
