This American-born81-year-old fitness TikToker from Germany, who is living proof that it's never too late to start exercising, will help you to find the motivation to get off the couch and begin doing push-ups.
Erika Rischko, mother of two, grandmother of one, has become a fitness inspiration for the youth during the pandemic after she started posting her workout challenge videos on TikTok following the coronavirus outbreak.
The 81-year-old self-described "fitness junkie" began building up muscles in her mid-50s when her daughter signed her up at a local gym.
The granny's videos have generated 2 million likes and thousands of positive comments on TikTok and Instagram.
"I am really honored and humbled that younger people are being inspired by me... If I can change the stereotype of old people being boring or not being active just a bit, that makes me very happy," Rischko told Good Morning America.
She recommends that people find a physical activity that they're likely to enjoy and stick with it.
