UNBELIEVABLE ! Do not miss this video of a 93-year-old grandmother practicing kung fu

If the best perfumes come in small packages, also the most vigorous grandmothers. Just look at how a small woman named Zhang Hexian practices the martial art of kung fu at age 93 to realize it.



CNN reported that the long-lived woman has spent 89 years practicing this martial art that mixes discipline with strength and began practicing for self-defense at the age of four.
The vigorous old lady - whose photos of kung fu in China have become a phenomenon in social networks - says that this routine is a tradition that carries in her family more than 300 years. The type of kung fu she practices has 15 styles, each with 36 types of moves. Although each style takes about three years of learning, in her long life she has had enough time to learn them all.

"The hardest part was learning to squat firmly, because it made my muscles hurt a lot," says Zhang. "I remember being so sore that I could not even go to the bathroom."
Another hard part of the training was the hunger that caused him to do so much exercise. Since her family was very poor, she did not have to eat, he admits. Fortunately she overcame all obstacles and today the agile woman not only practices this martial art, she also teaches it to other people in the village where she lives - her favorite being combat using bamboo poles.

The woman attributes her longevity to her exercise routine, as well as to her good eating and resting habits. "To maintain a good body you need to exercise and maintain a positive attitude," he says. "It is also important to help others as often as possible."
