Rob Loweis living proof that age is just a number.
In both photos, theWest Wingstar wore a sleeveless dark top and jeans as he gave the camera a smoldering look. The biggest difference between the two pictures is Lowe’s 1980s hairstyle in the second snap.
“911: Lonestar[sic] 2021 vsYoungblood1985 Who wore it better?” Lowe wrote in the caption.
It may be no surprise for fans that Lowe has maintained his physique over the years, as he hasfamously remained sober for more than three decadesand isalso a proponent of low-carb, high-protein diets.
The actor previously said he was in his 30s when he decidedit was time to switch up his diet.
“Everyone comes to the point sooner or later where you realize you can’t eat like you’re in college anymore,“theParks and Recreationstartold Insider in May. “I hadn’t realized it was a thing,but it changed my life.”

Lowe opted to give a low-carb lifestyle a try, and he’s stuck with it for the last 20 years, focusing on lean meats and fish and tons of fruits and vegetables.
“This way of eating gives me way more energy during the day. I’m not tired after a meal, I’m more focused and it enables me to train harder. It also keeps my weight down even though I don’t use it as a diet,” he said.
Lowe previously told PEOPLEthat his diet and exercise routine is vital to maintaining his career, now nearly 40 years since his breakout role inThe Outsiders.
“I have to take care of myself and be disciplined,” he said in 2018. “I have to get enough sleep, work out, eat right. I look at myself as no different than a professional athlete. If you go to sleep on it, you can’t expect to have the energy to be diverse and have longevity.”
