Helene Z. Miller has been working out three times a week for two years with her trainer, Elizabeth Zanin, at Anytime Fitness in South Dakota, Today reported. Miller began her weekly workouts after she had a health scare three years ago, and she said the habit is not only good for her physical health, but it also boosts her mood. "When I don’t go (to the gym), I’m like a different person,” she said. "It gives me something to look forward to."
Zanin's daughter Joana reportedly shared the video because she found Miller's enthusiasm infectious and charming. Ultimately, Elizabeth said she'd like to launch a program that makes gym memberships affordable or free for seniors who can't afford it otherwise.
While it's not so surprising that regular exercise contributes to longevity goals, having a contagiously joyful and positive attitude can help ever minute of life feel more worthwhile.

Studies have also found that longevity has been tied to friendship and even light-to-moderate drinking.
