Ted Clifton used to eat 12 raw eggs for breakfast with sherry
An 81-year-old bodybuilder and gym owner is still going strong, pumping iron and chowing down six meals a day - despite undergoing a triple heart bypass six years ago.
Ted believes the 60s attitude to diet contributed to needing a triple heart bypass six years ago. He has recently cut out gluten and found it gave his health a boost - and many people at his gym are doing the same.Dad-of-three Ted, who has nine grandchildren, runs Ted's Gym in Workington, Cumbria. He bought it 44 years ago with money he saved from working on the North Sea oil rigs - and says it's the equivalent of Gold's Gym where Arnie trains in the U.S.
Ted's wife Lee is Thai and the couple visit a few times a year. Ted said: "I usually compete with an Irish guy, Eric Downey, who is 84 and older than me. I'm not doing heavy weights now, just getting muscles pumping is good. "I had a triple heart bypass six years ago but I'm still training. I used to eat 12 raw eggs for breakfast with sherry.
