Ernie Hudson, 80, Details Simple Daily Pushup Routine on TODAY

He outlines a travel-friendly bodyweight routine focused on consistency and flexibility.

Overview

  • He breaks pushups into three sessions spread through the day, aiming to complete about 100 by evening.
  • He sometimes adds squats to get blood flowing in his legs and holds planks for core strength.
  • He skips the gym so the routine remains doable at home or while traveling for work.
  • He says he prioritizes mobility and flexibility rather than lifting heavy weights at his age.
  • He cites mental discipline and a desire to avoid mobility loss, including seeing a friend use a walker, as key motivators.
