Most grandmothers don’t become famous, but most grandmothers can’t lift 225 pounds.

A video showing 78-year-old Shirley Webb doing just that is making her name known around the world.

Webb started an exercise regimen two years ago, after she struggled to get up after sitting or lying down.

And Webb isn’t even close to being done.

“I have no intention of stopping right now,” she said. “When I go to the gym and work out, when I leave, I feel so much better than I did when I went in, and I just feel so good. I feel tremendous.”
