Renee Landers, a known bodybuilder now, suffered from back ache in 2010, which made her land on the surgery table to correct her lower lumbar fusion condition. That was the game changer for the now 71-year-old grandma who hired a trainer to become fit. Ever since she carved a niche in the bodybuilding community for herself by competing with bodybuilders a couple of decades younger than her.

After training for many years, Landers kickstarted her bodybuilding career by competing at the age of 69 years. In a recent Instagram post, she writes about her inspiring journey to encourage women to take up fitness irrespective of age.
