Majority of the elderly, upon reaching 80 years and above have made up in their minds to just enjoy their golden years. People plan to just retire from rigorous activities and just relax at home. We know that because of old age, the muscles and bones of the elderly are not that strong as before, and as a result, they have to slow done.
This is the case for most of the people in their 80’s, but not with Johanna Quaas. It seems that this woman is not retiring soon, and in fact, she is currently the world’s oldest gymnast.
Johanna Quaas is now 90 years old and she’s a gymnast. Though her age makes it look impossible to perform routines, lo and behold, Johanna is even more active than anyone on the floor, performing impressive routines or spinning around on parallel bars.
We have been used so much to younger gymnast doing incredible routines, but Johanna’s performance is superb, considering her old age.
The video below shows Johanna getting her 11th consecutive German Senior Championship in year 2012. In her routine, you just cannot imagine how she was still able to perform in such amazing form when she’s just a decade away to being century-old. It turns out that Johanna who was born in 1925 trained at a very young age and entered a competition when she was about 10.
If you are going to look at how fluid and precise her moves are, you will think she’s still very young. This only shows that Johanna Quaas is a very dedicated gymnast and even with her old age she still continues to wow everyone with her talent.
She’s one-of-a-kind! Share this with your family and friends!
