A 65-year old grandma and personal trainer has shared one of the key ways she manages to remain in such good shape. Super-fit Lesley Maxwell loves looking after her body and even attracts men half her age.<\/p>\n

The personal trainer, who loves lifting weights, recently took to Instagram to share her advice<\/a> where she recorded a video in the gym<\/a>. She could be seen in a sports bra and leggings on all-fours as she demonstrated her technique. Lesley then proceeded to arch her back up and down emphasising her rock-hard abs, before kneeling and sitting in a variety of positions to give her upper and lower legs a workout too<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Stretching is underrated, a great way to increase circulation plus increase our range of motion,” Lesley declared in a caption. “Oh\u2026 and it feels good.”<\/p>\n

Writing in response to her video, one fan declared: “Absolutely amazing as always Lesley.” A second person gushed: “The way you stretch is sexy and attractive, keep it up.”<\/p>\n

And a third Instagram user pointed out: “Looking so beautiful, sexy and strong, Lesley with that gorgeous muscle, toned body, pretty smile and lovely eyes. Have a wonderful work out.”<\/p>\n

Lesley, who is from Melbourne, Australia, previously<\/a> detailed her three favourite abs workouts.<\/p>\n

She explained: “These are: 1. Squat down low and reach for the steak and eggs in your fridge.<\/p>\n

“2. Weight train to develop muscle mass that burns calories for you even when you\u2019re not exercising.<\/p>\n

“3. Hanging knee raises plus ab bicycle exercises\u2026or choose your favourite ab exercises.”<\/p>\n

The fitness fanatic, who maintains that age poses no obstacle to fitness, attributes her physical condition to daily commitment, heavy weightlifting and a distinctive training system she has refined over the years.<\/p>\n

She elaborated: “My routine consists of training my lower body with every workout, so that’s four days week.<\/p>\n

“And I do my signature ‘alternating sets’ so that a lower body exercise followed by an upper body exercise.<\/p>\n

“Sometimes I can do 50 hanging knee raises as I like hanging from the chin-up bar. It’s a great stretch for the spine, plus a challenging ab exercise.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in a bid to show others they can achieve their fitness goals later on in life, Lesley is entering a body sculpted contest next month.<\/p>\n

The All Natural Figure Competitions is set for April 2026, where she hopes to wipe the floor with other contestants and inspire others along the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Grandmother and personal trainer Lesley Maxwell, 65, dedicates her life to showcasing how she remains so fit at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":479441,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[1167,6647,33701,102,17740,103,2532,6745,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-479440","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fitness","tag-exercise","tag-fitness","tag-grandparents","tag-health","tag-healthy-living","tag-instagram","tag-personal-trainer","tag-physical-fitness","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=479440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479440\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/479441"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=479440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=479440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=479440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
