Update November 1, 2009.
Marlene competed in the INBA Natural Olympia on 17 October on the
Gold Coast and won the 50+ class from 7 athletes!
 |
We have some fantastic Senior Figures competing in New Zealand
at the moment. The 35+ and 45+ is getting very competitive each year as the girls get more seasoned - not old!! |
 |
| But one outstanding figure is the youthful figure
of Marlene Henderson of Taupo.
When we heard Marlene was making a surprise entry and competing in
the 50+ class at the recent INBA Taupo South Pacific Champs we
thought 'What? no, they must've got her class wrong.' But it was
true Marlene is over 50. 51 in
fact! Marlene hardly looks a day over 40 and has the figure of someone much younger. She only trains 4 days a week and does about 3 x 30min cardio sessions a week. Marlene only prepared for the Taupo comp at 5 weeks out! She credits her body to good genes and having a young husband. Lucky girl, hunky Chris Henderson keeps her young. Marlene is an inspiration for all of us young figures and shows us what a commitment to health and fitness can do to keep us looking young. In this episode of Go Figure TV, we catch up with Marlene as she pumps up and talk to her about her contest preparation and get more insight into her training.
