  • A 91-year-old named Edna Giordano has gained social media attention for her active lifestyle.

At 91 years old, Edna Giordano still tackles ab workouts like a pro. 

The mother of five, grandmother of 21, and great-grandmother of four has gained social media attention for her active lifestyle. 

"I've always had a busy lifestyle because, let's face it, with that many children, you have to be busy. So, I never really thought about it; that's just the way I live," Giordano said in a Good Morning America interview, according to ABC News.

"My body feels better when I'm moving," she added. 

Giordano's 60-year-old daughter, Dalyce Radtke, a certified personal trainer, has a large social media presence, sharing her mother's fitness journey with her followers. 

In one post shared by Radtke, Giordano explained how a positive attitude has made a huge difference in her life. 

"It doesn't matter where you are, what you do, what's going on in your life - if you have a good attitude, it makes it a lot easier."

Radtke has shared videos of her mom doing ab workouts, perfecting her balance, and working on her mobility with stretches at home. But the 91-year-old also loves hitting the gym. "When I go to the gym, I don't try to break any records or compete with anyone else," she said.
