If your new year’s resolution is to get in shape, her story may be the inspiration you need to keep focused on your fitness goals.
Iris Davis was born in Ireland, raised in England and moved to the U.S. when she was much older. Davis says she became a fitness enthusiast at age 18 and has no plans of slowing down anytime soon.
For Davis, staying fit is a lifestyle. When she’s hitting the weights or doing exercises you would not expect to see done by someone her age, she’s in full beast-mode.“That’s my question every year since I turned 70,” Davis said. “I say, ‘One more year. One more year. One more year.’” Davis started competing in bodybuilding at age 50, going up against far younger competitors, and she was still able to win first place medals in 12 National Physique Committee shows and eventually earned her pro card. In some shows, she competed against men and still placed high.
“Movement and connection with the mind,” she added. “When you’re doing it, you must absolutely concentrate and be totally focused 100% or you will get nowhere.”
