74-year-old Chinese woman goes viral for youthful looks and healthy lifestyle

In Shanghai, 74-year-old Yingzi is captivating millions online with her vibrant lifestyle and ageless appearance. With over 2 million followers, she shares videos of herself dancing in high heels and striking poses, some of which have garnered over 100 million views.

Yingzi attributes her remarkable health and energy to a disciplined routine. She starts each day with an hour of yoga and adheres to a strict eating schedule, finishing meals by 5 p.m. and stopping when she feels 70% full. Her dietary principles include consuming soup, vegetables, protein, and carbohydrates in that order.

Despite a fracture in 2024, Yingzi recovered without relying on walking aids, dedicating an hour each night to walking to regain strength. Her fashion sense also turns heads; at 70, she joined the "Beijing Fashion Grandmothers," a group for those aged 65 and above. She has participated in street fashion shows and live broadcasts, even fulfilling a dream of walking in a fashion show at Shanghai Disneyland.

Yingzi believes that "one's own style is the key to staying young." She adopts trends popular with younger generations and fearlessly tries diverse styles, from trendy idol looks to punk. "Age is not a barrier but an asset," she stated. "I want to break stereotypes about age and show that grandmothers can also live elegant and unique lives."
