Tony Danza likens getting older to “living in a bad neighborhood,” he tells Yahoo Life. “That’s how you feel, like anything could happen.” But even after celebrating his 73rd birthday on April 21, the actor best known for classic TV shows Taxi and Who’s the Boss? isn’t slowing down because of it.

“I happen to be really lucky,” Danza says of enjoying good health, being surrounded by loving family and friends and continuing to work on projects that excite him. But he also puts the work in. “I am a devoted trainer,” says the former boxer, who has managed to maintain eight-pack abs into his 70s. “I still train. I try to keep myself in shape as well as I can.”
