There are so many stories out there in the world that can inspire people to be the best versions of themselves, but one of our new favourites is the case of 76-year-old Tripat Singh, who has shared various aspects of his fitness journey.

Posted to the Humans of Bombay Instagram page, Singh wowed the social network with a heartwarming story.
