The Oldest Bodybuilder in the World
Ray Moon, an 89-year-old Australian bodybuilder, continues to amaze his fans with his athletic physique, as well as his zest for life and positive attitude. In May 2013, he may not have won the bodybuilding competition, but he did receive a remarkable certificate - Ray Moon was recognized as the Oldest Bodybuilder in the world.
A Life Filled with Challenges
Ray Moon, who is already in his 80s, has faced numerous health issues and even underwent heart surgery. He has experienced cardiac arrest, clinical death, received a pacemaker, and also suffered a couple of minor strokes. In addition to these, Moon has had polio, intestinal problems, prostate issues, a hernia, and several other associated illnesses.
A Young and Healthy Appearance
Despite this unfortunate bouquet of diseases, Ray Moon does not appear as a frail and sickly old man. On the contrary, he looks youthful and healthy. The powerful muscles of the 89-year-old Ray command respect and admiration. He has been practicing bodybuilding for over 5 years. Surprisingly, Ray started going to the gym after his heart problems. Today, he runs 4 kilometers on the treadmill daily and engages in a 45-minute strength training session.
Age is not a Barrier
Comparing himself to his younger gym buddies, Ray laughs and assures that age is not the determining factor. "A few years ago, I was really backed into a corner," Moon said in an interview. "But I came to this gym. Since then, I have never looked back and have never felt better." His positive attitude and determination inspire younger bodybuilders and enthusiasts, often earning Ray standing ovations at competitions.
The Search for the World's Oldest Female Bodybuilder
By the way, Ray Moon recently received a certificate confirming that he is the Oldest Bodybuilder on the planet. Although he did not win the competitions held in Melbourne, it only fueled his strength and willpower for future workouts. "Age is not a barrier," Ray Moon firmly believes. He also hopes to encounter the world's oldest female bodybuilder someday, as he is convinced she must exist somewhere.
