Meet 64-Year Old Lorraine More From Pune Who Has Won a National Award For Bench Press!

Age is just a number! We all are familiar with this proverb, but only a few actually implement it. And Lorraine More of Pune has just done that. She is a 64 years old granny who has recently broken the National level bench press record. 

She participated in the National bench press competition in Delhi and won a gold medal by smashing the previous records. She used to keep herself active with yoga and cardio; however, she wanted to do something more.

With the help of her son, she decided to step into a gym and get stronger. It was her trainer who saw potential in her strength and motivated her to participate in amateur competition in Nigdi. To her surprise, she won a gold medal in her very first competition and then won more at the district level and eventually smashed the state level competition.
