This strikes me as good news. Check out Ruth Bader Ginsberg's fitness regime.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. She does an incredibly intense workout with a personal trainer twice a week. She’s also 83 years old.

When asked recently who the most important person in her life is, Ginsburg responded: “My personal trainer.”

And this is what her workout involves:

Bench-pressing 70 pounds
, machine leg curls and leg presses, chest flies and lat pull-downs, one-legged squats, full push-ups, planks and squats with 12-pound dumbbell curls, amongst other cardio and exercises.
