I'm a Muscle Barbie at 61 – I love rocking crop tops but people can’t believe I’m the same person I was seven years ago | The Sun

A FIT 61-YEAR-OLD Muscle Barbie has left social media users stunned after sharing snaps of herself before the incredible transformation.

Mônica Bousquet, 61, joined the gym seven years ago – and since then, she has managed to totally transform her body, now rocking abs and enviably toned arms.


The Muscle Barbie, believed to be from the sunny Portugal, has become somewhat of an internet sensation – on TikTok alone, the fitness fan boasts more than 616k fans.

After shedding the pounds, the 61-year-old uses her platform to motivate others ''to be healthy'', proving that age does not limit you.

Her TikTok page is full of videos where the stunner can be see in tiny crop tops and gym bras, working hard towards her goals.

According to the fitness lover, she works out six times a week – and she is certainly not afraid of lifting heavy weights, also following a strict diet.

But whilst Mônica may be in the best shape she's ever been now, the rock-hard abs and muscular legs are a result of dedication, and she's not always been this fit.

Recently, the fit gym bunny shared snaps of what she used to look like less than a decade ago – and fans online couldn't believe their eyes.

After seeing photos of Mônica aged 54, one social media user asked: ''7 years between these pictures?''

Someone else added: ''it was worth all the effort! congratulations!''
