She came under the spotlight after she shared longevity tips at a Yao Ethnic Minority Medicine Festival in Jianghua Yao Autonomous County in central Hunan province in early June, Jianghua TV reported.


"Maybe my movements in doing the push-ups are not up to standard, but I insist on doing 200 each day," the woman surnamed Li, was quoted as saying.


She said she habitually exercises at home because it often rains and it is not convenient for her to take part in outdoor activities.


When reporters arrived at Li's home, she happily obliged them by completing 100 sit-ups on her bed and 200 push-ups on the floor.


She also skilfully spins the hula hoop, according to the report.

Li also revealed that she bathes her feet in hot water every evening.


"I used to get cramps in my legs, but after I started taking foot baths, it did not happen again," she said.


Li said her health has really benefited by doing exercise.

Details of her family were not revealed in the report.

Internet users have marvelled at Li's vitality.


"Unbelievable! I can only do fewer than 10 push-ups at a time," one person said.

"My God. She can really do it. She is 92! I could not do that when I was 29," said another.
