The grandma, whose daughter Dalyce regularly shares wholesome videos of her mum hitting the gym, has become somewhat of an internet sensation and even an inspiration for many.

According to Dalyce, who has seven kids, her mum hasn't always been this active all her life - but after taking up fitness, she's shown it's never too late to make a drastic change to your habits.

''She's been dedicated for years, (but she didn't start until age 65) showing that consistency and commitment are key,'' Dalyce, a fitness lover herself, recently shared on TikTok.

''At 92, my mum draws her motivation and inspiration from being around others who are on their own fitness journeys.''

Dalyce, who posts under the username @fit__momof7, went on to reveal what her mum does on days when she doesn't feel like lifting weights or doing cardio - and according to her, the nan has even made pals in the gym.

''The regular greetings from a familiar gym-goers give her that extra push to show up for herself.

''Age is just a number - it's about showing up for yourself daily.

''Her life is a testament to the power of lifelong fitness.''

But although, like most of us, the 92-year-old - whose youthful looks have left people stunned - loves a bit of cake, she can't live without her hour-long sessions.

Without these, the nan recently made headlines, she finds herself feeling ''sluggish'', as her ''body wants to move''.

As well as stretching ''to maintain flexibility'', the 92-year-old fitness enthusiast ''uses the weight machines and knows how to adjust them'', the daughter praised her mum.

In terms of her diet, the grandma-of-seven also hasn't had a drop of alcohol in over a decade - and she also explained why.

''It's not that I don't like it or it's not that I'm against it or anyone else having it, but just for me I just feel that it really doesn't enhance you in any way and it could possibly be a problem for some people.

"Why do I have it if I don't need it or will really want it, so I just don't."

According to Dalyce, it's not just about her physical health - the mum also "challenges her mind."

"She values her ability to drive and her independence is everything!"

The videos of the nan hitting the gym have since gone viral on Dalyce's page, where she also shares her own fitness routine.

Thousands, for instance, couldn't believe their eyes and ears when the mum shared her parent's age, with one left totally gobsmacked.

''92???? STOP IT?! She looks amazing.''

Another joked: ''I’m 52 and I’m older than your mum.''

''There is no way she’s 92! Holy Moses! They need to study y’all’s genes!'' a third demanded.

''Pretty incredible. This is the result of years of good habits, along with genetics, lifestyle, etc.. very rare. Good for her!'' someone else thought.

''THIS WOMAN IS MY INSPIRATION!'' a fifth chimed in.

Exercising in your later years

We all know that exercising has numerous benefits for your physical and mental health - but what do the experts say about taking up an active lifestyle when you hit your 50s and later years?

Well, over 40s who take up exercise slash their risk of dying early by nearly a quarter, research has found.

Those who do more than the NHS’s recommended 150 minutes a week reduce their risk by almost half.

Lead researcher Soren Brage added: “The simple message is, the more exercise, the better.”

The study concluded: “These results are encouraging not least for middle-aged and older adults with cardiovascular disease and cancer, who can still gain substantial longevity benefits by becoming more active.”

Huw Edwards, from health body UKactive, said: “This  provides further evidence against the outdated idea that people should do less as they age or while managing a long-term illness.

“The time has come for a total rethink of how we approach our later years.”
