'At our age it is not how much money you have, who you are, or how good your children are. You just want a medical record as short as possible.'

The grandmother from Shanghai has become a minor celebrity in recent months as her newfound and unlikely love for working out made national headlines.

A post on the video-sharing app of the pensioner doing a rapid set of lung-busting squats and lunges has been viewed more than one million times.

Chen, who has a grandson aged 14, recalled the shocked looks she got the first time she walked through the gym door.
