Watch Anand Mahindra’s Monday motivation video showcasing the world’s oldest gymnast | Trending News

Business tycoon Anand Mahindra, known for sharing inspirational videos, recently shared his Monday motivation with the world. This week, Mahindra took to social media to share a video of Johanna Quaas, the world’s oldest gymnast, as his source of inspiration.

The video showcases Quaas, who is an impressive 98 years old, flawlessly performing gymnastics at an event. Mahindra captioned the video with, “98 years old. That’s right—Johanna Quaas is 98. Never say die. She’s my #MondayMotivation.”

The video quickly gained traction, amassing over 37,000 views and numerous reactions from viewers. One user commented, “Someone rightly said that Age is just a number,” while another wrote, “Yes, indeed your post comes with many inspiring stories which inspire us very positively.”

Johanna Quaas, born on November 20, 1925, participated in her first gymnastics competition at the age of 10. In 2012, she was recognized as the oldest gymnast and continued to compete regularly in amateur competitions.

Despite her age, Quaas follows a healthy diet rich in greens and exercises daily, either through gymnastics or other physical activities like walking or swimming. She has no health concerns and attributes her physical well-being to her consistent exercise routine.

Having spent most of her life as a gymnastics coach and handball player, Quaas returned to active gymnastics at the age of 56. She received the prestigious Nadia Comăneci Sportsmanship Award in 2015 before retiring from competition in 2018 due to a torn biceps tendon.

Johanna Quaas’s story serves as a reminder that age should never be a barrier to achieving one’s goals and staying active. Her resilience and dedication to fitness continue to inspire people of all ages around the world.
