damn that is def inspirational!!
while back this eldery guy who always wore a shirt saying "senior Olympics"
would bench and squat some heavy weight
he had to be in his late 70s or early 80s
i remember he did 200lbs bench press with 5reps
he did the reps oddly though

CORRECTED

Doesn't look like his legs could handle the squat.
