She Does Pull-Ups
In her Instagram video, Shemesh is seen doing pull-ups. Asphalt Green states that pull-ups have a lot of benefits. “Pull-ups are a fantastic way to improve upper-body strength. This exercise primarily targets your back and biceps, but involves many stabilizing muscles in your core, arms, and shoulders. Depending on the way you grip the bar, you can even work your chest. Plus, you don’t need any fancy equipment to do a pull-up. Tree branches, scaffolding, and even door frames are all places people can do pull-ups.”
She's Consistent
Shemesh makes sure to stay consistent with fitness. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram video. “After retiring from competitive bodybuilding my goal is to stay strong and healthy and maintain the muscle mass I've gained over 20 years of weightlifting 🏋🏻♂️ Well, this job is a lot harder than it looks. That's why I have a tip for you, if you are over 40 and still don't lift weights then start today and don't stop building your muscle and strength, so that you can improve the quality of your life now and in the future, because muscles are the best anti-aging!! 🤓☝️”

I was on my prep to Tampa Pro I felt stronger than ever, even though I was sick on my prep.
