As the calendar flipped to April 6 and marked Paul’s 55th birthday, the Internet collectively shrugged and then smiled because, let’s face it, the actor defies the very concept of aging. The beloved star continues to stun with his remarkably youthful appearance, and fans across the globe flooded social media with tributes that were part homage, part disbelief over his looks. Among those who took a moment to wish the actor was his Friends co-star, Jennifer Aniston, who playfully called Paul an “ageless freak.”

Then cardio,” he went on to say. “People ask me, ‘Can you send me your meal plan? How many times a week do you work out? Do you drink? Do you eat carbs? Do you have a cheat day?’ The most important part of training is sleep. People will set their alarm and then sleep for four hours and they’ll get up so that they can train. They’re doing themselves a disservice.”
The Ant-Man star spoke about how staying physically active keeps him mentally happy as well

I never would’ve done that before [Ant-Man]. I lift weights, hopefully at least three times a week,” he told the outlet. “And I’ve learned so much about how my body reacts to foods, how it reacts to exercise, and where I’m happiest and how much it affects me mentally … If I’m in this suit, running around playing a character who’s supposed to be a superhero, I just feel better. And I feel less like an impostor.”
Fans collectively gasped over Paul Rudd’s age-defying looks, with one saying, “This man is immortal”
