I just came across this video and thought it was great! I may have to start counting out my PT reps like she does!

I love that! The comments say she passed away at 102 but still! What a long life and how awesome to be that active at that age.

Oh, I missed that somehow. Watching her at 100 seeming so lively, there are some people in their 80s who don't move like that!

That's adorable! I love how she shouts "TEYN!" at the end of each set.

Vantreesta · 02-12-21, 01:06 PM

Me too! I need that kind of joy!

Bet she got herself on and off the toilet without any help!

I love her Hope she died peacefully in her sleep

It is inspirational. And her routine wasn't fancy or elaborate (from what we see). Squats, leg lifts, bridge. Simple and basic. (Worth remembering...!)

(Now, genetics play a big role in our aging, but I'm all for doing whatever I can to help things!)

I actually couldn't help myself and did the exercises after watching!

Ok.First I couldn't get over how young she looked at 100. Then I marveled at her overall strength and muscle tone. All I can say is Wow!!!

Actually I want to incorporate her moves in my WFH routine after sitting so long.
