    This is inspiration for me every time I whine about upping the weights or working out. This is so worth it.

    Wow! :noway:

    She is my new hero and role model. I have no aspirations to become a professional bodybuilder but if she can look like that at 76, I have no excuse not to at least look fit and trim at 61.
