It is becoming quite difficult to fit more than 40, is not it?
Or is it?
If you think it is, allow me to ask a question, you have heard of Kelly Nelson or Morjorie Newlin ... two grandmothers body building?
Read on, my young friend, or maybe not so young, and do more about Kelly and Morjorie and what each chose the "rest of her life".
People will have all sorts of reasons, from the form, not exercising, or both. Sometimes, "I is not the time" or "I do not have the feelinglike it "or" That's just a waste of time. "Sometimes real feelings and beliefs, but occasionally, they are masks for" I'm too old to be fit. "
A lady named Kelly Nelson began weight lifting in 1980, more specifically, training with weights, at the age of 53 Up to this point in their lives, there was nothing about their sports existence at all. Their mission was simple at the time.
She thought the backs of the poor needs some work is involved.
When she learned they did notjust need to work, they needed a workout.
Originally, she started on her own at home, just to streamline the backs of the poor. When, as weightlifting, or more accurately seen, "Strength Training", could apply to the backs of the poor, she was surprised to do to get one called "triceps", she thought maybe this weight lifting stuff for the rest of the work could be her.
So, this 53-year-old non-athletes who began a regular exercise program to see what would happen.
Over 6Months later, she convinced her daughter, Colleen Fisher, about 30 years younger, started training with her, and finally began to gain body building is Colleen competitions.
In 1983, after 3 years of training, and never trained in a real gym, bodybuilding competition Grandma Kelly Nelson in her first bodybuilding competition. She won the competition and never regretted it.
She has been competing and training since.
Is it possible that this body buildingGrandma is the oldest female bodybuilders at? We then talk about a minute.
Both Kelly Nelson and her daughter, Colleen Fisher, who adopted the lifestyle of bodybuilding and weight training as the way they want to live. This can be a bit much for some people, but they certainly serve as role models, what can I do for the over 40 crowd. At one time, Kelly regularly rode a bicycle to and from the gym where she trained 10 miles each way proves, once again, that fitnessafter 50 is not an impossible dream.
Kelly Nelson has been quoted as saying, "Aging is a disease and I do not have it. Nor do I intend to get it!" When the photos of her in her late 70 measures a bikini and FlexIn bears "a storm is no evidence she has not gotten around to this illness.
Kelly Nelson, who was 77 years old body building granny has a long way since the beginning of the fitness lifestyle come, while a housewife in the 80 years. Since then she has won numerous body buildingChampionships, and now, with her daughter, who markets her own line of fitness training videos.
When my wife and daughters say like: "You go, girl!"
Well, if you believe that Ms. Nelson is something I have not had a chance to tell you about 86 years old Morjorie Newlin and her numerous awards from her thirteen years of body building competitions. Did I say Kelly Nelson was still in the competition in their 70's? Well, Morjorie Newlin began training at the age of 72
What brought them excited enough tostarting a body building career, she has taken to competitions in Italy, France and Germany, and helped her to deliver a room given to her? One day while shopping, they realized that they no longer lift the 50-pound bags of kitty litter she needed to look after their cat!
Two years later, in her early 70s, Marjorie Newlin won her first bodybuilding competition.
Now, let's see. At the age of 53, Kelly Nelson began weight lifting, because they do not like the looks of the back of theirArms. At the age of 72, decided she wanted Morjorie Newlin independent enough to take on their cat. From such simple starts, winning each body building granny fame and international recognition for the decision that it is possible to do what most people feel is impossible for them.
They have also proved that women can in the 70's and 80's HOT in a string bikini. How's that for a break-up stereotype?
Even more, they proved that age does not always have the last word on thehow a person is this part of her life, life in the so-called "golden years".
Or, as Morjorie Newlin puts it, "I want to be as independent as I can be as long as I can,"
Looks like they are 80 but one example, 90 are making it really fun too!
Oh! I'm sorry!
What have you told me how impossible it is for you to fit over 40?
