Occurred on 2019-2020 / Connecticut, USA
Info From Licensor: Wesley T. James, 33, from Norwalk, Connecticut, is a personal trainer and filmed these videos between 2019 and 2020. "Lauren is 74 years old. She is not married and never had kids. She is a retired Lawyer (IBM), and she is currently a maths professor at the University of Connecticut - Stamford Campus. Lauren is also enrolled in an advanced calculus class, as well as a french class herself. She is determined to avoid Alzheimer’s at all costs!" said Wesley.
"We have been training together for 2 and a half years. She takes a 6 am Crossfit class prior to our sessions. I am very fortunate to see her 5-6 days a week. Her main goal is to be able to make it to the bathroom on her own when she is 90!" said Wesley. "Our friends and families absolutely love the video! They are thrilled to see us go viral and love the message that we are trying to spread through fitness" said Wesley.
"Throughout the video, you will see a combination of calisthenics (bodyweight training), plyometrics, core, mobility, and stability training (physical & mental)" said Wesley.
"This video demonstrates that your perception is your reality. You can only be as strong as your mind will allow. So every time you say, or think you can or can’t do something, that will be the end result. You are also seeing years of hard-work and dedication to mastering my craft, and the bond formed between two completely different individuals, who are generations apart" said Wesley.
"Lauren embodies every desirable quality that I could ever ask for in a client and friend. She is truly an amazing woman, and I am very blessed to be a part of her fitness journey. We strive to inspire others to become more in tune with their minds and bodies, and to operate above an optimal level. We tend to create fear from what we perceive. But fear is not real. And when you finally realize that, only then will you be able to obtain success" said Wesley.
"We never posted videos on social media for fame or recognition. We just wanted to inspire others to believe in themselves. Anything is possible, at any age, as long as you are focused, determined, and you really want to do it" said Wesley.
