Makes you wonder if living a strenuous life is the way to go:
One made it to 100, the other is in his 90s. Neither has done a strenuous workout in their lives
Interesting little sidebar on Warren Buffett: for a period as a teenager he was into bodybuilding, but to the eternal benefit of his net wealth, and maybe longevity as well as you suggest, soon realized he didn't have the genetics for it
Excerpts from the biography "The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life":
_______________
His real obsession was weight lifting and Bob Hoffman. He spent most of his free time down in the
basement. A few weeks later, when school was out, he could wait no longer. He had to meet his idol, Uncle Bob. "He was it: I had to see him in person."
However, in the end, Warren’s fascination with numbers won out.
“You know, you kept measuring that biceps to see if it’d gone from thirteen to thirteen and a quarter
inches. And you were always worried whether you were loosening up the tape or anything. But I never
improved from looking like the Charles Atlas ‘before’ picture. I think my biceps went from thirteen inches
to thirteen and a quarter inches after thousands of curls.
The Big Arms book didn't do me much good"_______________
