It’s workout time and 102-year-old Jean Bailey is head of the class.

She leads exercise sessions four times a week for her fellow residents at Elk Ridge Village Senior Living in suburban Omaha, Nebraska, counting the reps and encouraging the others to keep up.

Bailey’s classes consist of about 35 minutes of exercises done seated in a chair, with moves that target the rotator cuffs, knees, hips, shoulders and the neck.

She and her fellow fitness buffs swing their arms, raise their legs and touch their toes — all under the centenarian’s supervision.

Amazing! Thanks for making me smile, @ifindedout. :)

From the article:

When asked if she likes sweets, Bailey lights up: “I love it. I don’t always eat all my dinner, but I always eat all my dessert,” she notes. ...

Like she said, "... I always eat all my dessert.” Very relatable.:)
And that choc cake looks yummy.

Exercise class. Not so relatable [wink], but bless her for doing it.
