No one can quite believe how old this woman is

For centuries, people have searched far and wide for the elixir of life, that which staves off illness and aging... and this woman appears to have found it.

Either that, or she has a ridiculous exercise regime.

Wendy Ida is an author, fitness expert, TV host and life coach.

Oh, and she’s also sixty four years old.

Sixty...four...

Once you've picked your jaw off the floor, you'll be glad to know it's not a magical elixir.

The grandmother took up exercising when she was 43 and has been spending almost two hours a day at the gym since.

She is quoted as saying:

I’m 64 and in the best shape of my life. When I say how old I am people don’t believe me and want to see my driving licence. People say I look like I’m in my early thirties. I had someone aged 22 think I was their age.

See? All it takes is hard work and committment, and you too could look as good as Wendy!
