Fitness is not a fad for everyone. For some, it is a lifestyle that they choose every day. And Ahmedabad-based content creator, grandmother and fitness entrepreneur Renu Sidhu is undoubtedly one of them.

Taking to Instagram on August 30, Renu shared a video of her working out with her granddaughter at the gym on the occasion of her 66th birthday. The exercises she performed in the video, all the while carrying her granddaughter, are impressive for someone even half her age.

From Bulgarian split squats to weighted hip thrusts

Renu is seen in the video performing a range of exercises with her granddaughter in her arms. They included the weighted Bulgarian split squats with a kettlebell in one hand and her granddaughter in the other, multiple types of squats, and then hip thrusts, all while holding the child.

“Strong roots grow strong branches!” wrote Renu in the caption. “I want my granddaughter to grow up seeing strength not as an option, but as a standard. That building muscle isn’t just about looking fit; but about creating a foundation of health that lasts a lifetime.”

“I lift today so I can keep up with her tomorrow. Showing up for myself means I can show up for her too. I want a future with my granddaughter that is filled with ‘yes’, yes to running, yes to playing, and yes to keeping up with every single milestone of hers,” she added.
