Rob Lowe Goes Shirtless & Shows His Real Physique at 60 on Boating Trip, Causing Online Stir

"Parks and Recreation" star Rob Lowe recently spent a weekend with his family, donning an outfit that caught the attention of eagle-eyed netizens. His relaxed pose led some to speculate if he was doing it for the camera.

At 60 years old, Rob Lowe continues to prove that age is just a number. He recently turned heads and set the internet abuzz by flaunting his toned physique during a boating trip with his family in Santa Barbara, California.

Relaxing on a boat, Lowe wore printed blue shorts and a necklace. He soaked up the sun and took a refreshing dip in the water. His shirtless look quickly sparked a wave of reactions online.

Some users expressed disappointment, with one commenting, "I don't know if Incredible was the right word. He looks somewhat frail [sic]!"

Another critic remarked, "You can tell he spotted the paparazzi and sucked in his gut 😃 do we call that a grandpa bod [sic]?" An observant user added, "Ok is he holding his stomach in [sic] ?"

Despite the criticism, many supporters praised Lowe. One fan gushed, "He doesn't age, still looks fantastic!❤️" Another enthused, "He look's fantastic wow cheers 🥂 [sic] " while a different user noted, "He's still so handsome."

Others reminisced about his past appeal, with one remarking, "Rob Lowe is forever young! Such a hottie!!! He has talent as well!😂😂" Another fan echoed, "I actually find him much more attractive now than in the 80's. He was almost too pretty then-now he has some character in his face [sic]."

Lowe's impressive physique reflects his dedication to a fit and healthy lifestyle, a commitment he discussed in February 2024. He stressed the need to improve his diet to keep pace with his active routine, candidly admitting that he has a weakness for sweets.

He recalled learning in his 30s that he couldn't eat like he was in college anymore, which led him to turn to low-calorie snacks from Atkins, a company he recently partnered with.

"I have plenty of willpower right up until the moment that I have absolutely no willpower," the veteran actor said. To combat his sweet tooth, Lowe keeps low-sugar treats like chocolate peanut butter cups on hand, finding them just as satisfying as the sugary versions.

The "Youngblood" alum also emphasized moderation over complete restriction, noting, "I'm trying to be even more disciplined now as I'm older just because as you get older, you need to watch what you eat even more than when you were younger."

Despite the challenges of maintaining a strict diet, Lowe has always excelled in fitness, emphasizing that he's feeling "better" than he ever felt.

In addition to his fitness and diet routine, Lowe incorporates various strategies to maintain his health, wellness, and youthful appearance. As reported on January 12, Lowe mentioned getting plenty of sleep and avoiding alcohol.

"I get tons of sleep," he admitted. "Like, an embarrassing amount. I don't want people to think something is wrong with me. It's a lot of sleep, not 12 hours. But if there's ever 12 [hours] to be had, I'm taking it."

In between work and home, the "St. Elmo's Fire" actor relaxes in his SUV with reclined seats. He also uses Bose noise-canceling headphones and an eye mask to ensure quality rest. He previously shared a photo of himself sleeping with his dog, claiming mornings were not their thing.

Besides getting enough shut-eye and monitoring his diet, Lowe also avoids alcoholic beverages, celebrating 33 years of sobriety. "When you think about the calories and the bloat you're missing. That just adds up. So that's super helpful," he said.

Lowe has also spent the past years focusing on his family, including his wife, makeup artist Sheryl Berkoff. Within four years, the couple welcomed two sons, who Lowe described as "amazing."
