Most grandmothers, especially those reaching 80 years of age, can be counted on for cozy hugs, surprise gifts, and gray hair. So you may be surprised when you meet Willie Murphy, a 77-year-old grandmother who can do one-handed push-ups and deadlift 215 pounds.
The 105-pound senior started with 5-pound weights a few years ago, after seeing a sign about a weight-lifting competition at her local YMCA. She asked a Y employee if she could participate. "Go for it, granny," he said.
She took his advice with a vengeance.
In addition to lifting more than twice her weight, Murphy can do one-handed pull-ups, one-handed pushups, fingertip pushups, and the pushups where you put your fingers in diamond formation and press your nose all the way to the floor.
Murphy is quick to point out that her strength is all natural. "None of those steroids for me," she said, setting down a barbell.
77 year old grandma can do one-handed pull-ups, one-handed pushups, fingertip pushups? FML! My last girlfriend broke up with me when she got tired of caressing my well-hung belly, after I repeatedly ignored her pleas to lose it. It's time to hit the gym, this is disgrace!
Basraay, are you going to back to work tomorrow? It's Monday morning for me now and am getting ready for work. Will miss your cantarabaqash, my fat, wecel mistress.
