The Iron Women of Perry…Fit & Fabulous over 50!
These ladies knew that age was nothing but a number…and they decided to kick some serious butt. These ladies, JoAnn, Marsha, Jill, Cheri, Stephanie, Sherri, and Cindy, are tough, motivated, and doing some good!

Perry resident Marsha McCaulley, a former body building champ, now is a person trainer/fitness guru, and she had six of her most devoted clients join her in trying to help improve/update the weightlifting equipment at the McCreary Community Building/Rec Center.
These incredible ladies decided to put together a calendar to raise some funds…with one stipulation, they had to be over 50 and willing to bare their bellies.
All the pictures in the calendar were shot around Perry, and the final result definitely showcases the dedication and determination of these women!
They spent about 10 weeks working out…6 days a week…eating 80-100 grams of protein a day…leaving sugar alone…and no alcohol! I woke up this morning already thinking of what I’m going to have for lunch…and sugar will be involved. The dedication of these women is outstanding…and it shows that no matter what your age might actually be, if you’re feeling young at heart…that’s all that matters.
Calendars are $20 each…and they look great, with every cent going to the Rec Center. They have raised about $11,000 so far for improvements to weightlifting organization, weights, kettlebells, new flooring & carpet, and so much more!

Get all the details here.
If you’re wanting to join these ladies, the are helping to host a “Get Fit in ’15” Boot Camp on Sat. Jan. 3rd from 8 am-noon, at the McCreary Community Building/Rec Center in Perry. For details they may call the Rec at 515-465-5621.
(Note: Thank you to Cheri for sending me details on this…it’s a great cause, and now you’ve guilted me to at least think about hitting the treadmill again, ha ha….fine, I’ll do it)
AWESOME is as AWESOME does!
