Kringvarp Føroya reports that 75-year-old journalist Leivur Hansen and 81-year-old professor Jóan Pauli Joensen exercise three times a week at Yndi, a training centre in Havn.

The two veteran exercisers follow a fixed routine every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning and do not deviate from it.

The report also interviews Laila Djurhuus Jacobsen, who works at Yndi’s reception and guides people during their training.

Each morning, Leivur and Jóan Pauli join many others in Yndi’s coffee corner for coffee and conversation after exercising.

“This is the finishing touch,” Leivur Hansen says. Jóan Pauli agrees.
