Dustin Hoffman spills the secret of his youthful looks at 71

Dustin Hoffman has revealed that he owes his youthful looks to his strict daily routine that included waking up at 4 am to hit the sauna room later.

The 71-year-old Oscar-winner said that he loved to “loosen up” his bones with frequent sauna sessions – even on every film set.

“I live the same life every day. All the time. I go to bed nine o’clock. Always wake up four in the morning, so I don’t need an alarm clock. Make my own coffee, hang with the dogs, then I work out for an hour,” the Daily Express quoted him as saying.

“I know if I don’t work out while I’m still on the coffee high, I won’t. Then I brush my teeth, shower, go into my sauna.

“Wherever I am, if I’m away, I rent a prefab sauna to sweat and loosen up the bones. The older you get, the more those bones need loosening. Then a cold shower for as long as I can,” he added.

The six-time Golden Globe Award-winner further insisted on the relevance of taking a short nap for relaxed muscles.

He said: “And I’m a proponent of the afternoon nap. Einstein always took a nap. Fifteen minutes. That’s all. Wake up naturally, don’t go back to sleep. See, it never fails that 10 hours from when your day starts the director always calls for your close-up, and without that nap you look puffy.” (ANI)
