Fitness enthusiasts Lesley Maxwell, her daughter, Vanessa Christofi, and her granddaughter, Tia Christofi, continue stunning thousands of social media users who believe the three women are sisters.
For the three generations of women, an ideal plan isn’t to go to the cinema, dine out, or catch up over coffee. Instead, the trio prefers to bond over weight-lifting.

Lesley, 65, defies stereotypes whenever she sets foot in the gym.
“People are always surprised to learn that we are actually three totally different generations of a family,” she told Caters News.
“They’re surprised to know I have grandchildren because I suppose it’s a bit out of character to think of a grandmother doing deadlifts and pull-ups at the gym.”

The glam bodybuilder, who also works as a personal trainer, recommends physical exercise to all women regardless of age. “It strengthens our bones and helps us tone our body by adding muscle. I’d love to see more women of all ages lifting weights.”
She also described weight-lifting as “an anti-aging way to train.”

Of course, her workout sessions wouldn’t be the same without Vanessa—who prefers not to reveal her age—and 22-year-old Tia.
“We always have a wonderful time together chatting, having a laugh, and training. I’m so blessed to have such a lovely family,” she said of their bond.
Besides doing the same weight-lifting exercises, the trio enjoys swapping brightly colored workout clothes. The granddaughter, an Instagram influencer and marketing expert, is in charge of picking the vibrant outfits.

“I’m lucky I get to share clothes with my daughter and granddaughter. When we do shoots together, most of the clothes come from Tia’s wardrobe. She loves doing the styling and color-coordinating us,” the Melbourne-born grandma said.
In addition to training four times a week, the 65-year-old keeps active thanks to her profession.
“I’m a trainer and in the gym most days. You could say I get some incidental exercise as I’m often carrying the weights or ‘spotting’ my clients,’” she explained. “’I also do some exercise demonstrations, so I guess that also helps.”

Lesley’s Instagram followers love to see pictures of the three generations working out together and often compliment her on her figure and commitment to leading a healthy lifestyle.
“Gorgeous. Very inspiring to your beautiful granddaughter,” one of them wrote.
“Unbelievable. You look like sisters,” another commented under a photo that shows her and Tia lifting weights.

Tia’s social media followers were also surprised by the fitness videos starring her grandma, whom many have mistaken for her mother.
“They’re taken back when I correct them and tell them she is my grandmother. I film my grandmother and I working out, and people love to see it,” she said.
“She’s 43 years my senior and we both lift weights and follow the same workout routine while dressed in similar apparel. It was a video that went viral.”
It remains to be seen whether the fitness craze will continue with the next Christofi generation. Today, the trio’s content reminds everyone that there’s no such thing as an age limit to take care of one’s health.

with that much filter a tea cup would look like a "sister". In the unfiltered pictures you see the age clearly.

It would be a refreshing change to see 3 generations of women in the same family NOT use a sh** ton of makeup, filters, and less than flattering clothing to help people lead a healthy lifestyle. I wouldn't follow them because I don't know what they REALLY look like.
