Rick Springfield Reveals His Secret to Staying Sexy at 73 — See His Shirtless Thirst Trap (Exclusive)

The “Jessie’s Girl” singer opens up to PEOPLE about his healthy lifestyle, his new album and how he’s gearing up for his I Want My ’80s tour

Watch out, Jessie — Rick Springfield’s still got it.

At 73, the ’80s icon is as fit as ever thanks to a combination of his rigorous workout routine and a healthy diet (plus he’s got the abs to prove it).

“I work out every day,” Springfield tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue, on newsstands Friday. “I just got a trainer, and I’ve been working out with him. Basically, I watch what I eat, and I try and stay active.”

Though he’s tried eating vegan in the past, Springfield says he maintains a pescatarian diet now.

“I tried being a vegan, and it made me feel great, but I looked like hell,” he explains. “A friend of mine came up to me and said, ‘Are you OK?’ I got so thin. So I had to put fish back in [for protein].”
