The Healthy Habits Kevin Costner Follows Make 67 Look So Darn Good

The star stays active and moving.

Actor, film director, and producer Kevin Costner is an all-time favorite celeb. From his many starring roles over the years, including Eliot Ness in The Untouchables (1987), Tom Farrell from No Way Out (1987), "Crash" Davis in Bull Durham (1988), Lt. John J Dunbar in Dances with Wolves (1990)—just to name a small handful—to four amazing seasons of the ever-so-popular Peacock show, Yellowstone, it's clear Costner has his act together on and off the screen. In the Taylor Sheridan series, Kevin Costner portrays John Dutton, the cool-as-can-be patriarch, protecting his precious Yellowstone Dutton Ranch in Montana all while keeping family matters in check. He does this while looking so fit and good at 67—whether Dutton is riding a horse, in a helicopter, driving a pick-up truck, or rocking a cowboy hat.

There's so much more to Kevin Costner than bringing so many great characters to us on screen, and we've learned the star's life secrets and healthy habits he follows at 67. Perhaps his priorities, positive choices, and activities are what help him stay young and at the top of his game.

Indulging in artistic activities for as little as 8 ½ hours each month positively impacts mental well-being, too. Simply put, it's important to live life doing what you're passionate about, and it seems like Kevin Costner is doing exactly that.
