Super Mario is still pumping iron at 94

- By Douglas Whitbread

GREAT grandad Mario Sanna continues a gruelling workout at the age of 94.

He even celebrated his birthday with a session at the I-Motion Gym in Rotherham – and staff threw a party for him.

The former railway engineer said his job laying train tracks kept him in good shape, but wanted to stay fit after retiring.

His workouts include exercise bikes, rowing machines, leg presses and biceps curls. Mario said: “The body needs to move. If you leave it idle, it deteriorat­es.”
