At 1st glance, you might think this is me, but (brace yourself for serious #motivationmonday) it's my mom @ginnymaccoll . At 65, her strength is impressive, but what's even more amazing is that her 1st pullup was less than a year ago! Age really is a state of mind, and it's never too late to start! ❤

American Ninja Warrior Jessie Graff is one proud daughter! She recently shared a video showing off her mom’s fitness.
Jessie’s mom, Ginny, did her first pull up just a year ago and since then she’s become an obstacle master. At 65 years old, she’s ignoring any idea that age could hold her back.
Look at the height on this box jump.

But she’s not just training in the gym. Ginny is getting the full American Ninja Warrior experience. Here she is on swinging rings.
