She’s become a social media sensation and often shares clips of herself flexing her muscles and working out on gym machines.

Carrie firmly believes that age shouldn’t be used as an excuse for whether or not you’re exercising.

And she’s known for striking a pose in the locker room as she prepares for practice.

Fans have been impressed with her physique as she continues to train at 57.

One said: “You must be an inspiration to other women!!”

Another commented: “57 and solid muscles! You are so inspiring.”

And a third stunned fan said: “Wow you look absolutely amazing.”

Carrie also shared two images that showed fans the difference between the shredded and bulking seasons.

In one selfie she wore pink curls, in another she was blonde.

Fans were also stunned that Carrie found time to work out alongside her job.

Showing off her huge muscles, she said, “Work all day. Still train at night. No excuses.”

Carrie not only works out in the gym – she also competes.

Previously, she competed in the 2021 NPC USA Championships.

In a video uploaded to TikTok last December, she was seen striking a series of poses on stage.

‘HATERS WILL HATE’

She was spotted beaming as she showed off her stunning physique and muscles.

One fan described the athlete as “amazing,” while others posted love hearts as they commented on her videos.

Carrie was seen competing against bodybuilders who looked younger than her.

And she shrugged off any criticism thrown at her when she said, “Haters gonna hate because they don’t.”

Carrie also wrote, “Some people will never clap for you. Win anyway.”

The female bodybuilder has offered fans a glimpse into her life away from the gym and competitions.

In a recent Instagram post, she dressed up with her husband for a night out at the pub and was showered with praise.

Fans said the loving couple looked “gorgeous.”

In another touching post, she revealed how she spent a night watching the Idaho Fall Spud Kings.

And Carrie has also shared heartwarming family moments with thousands of her Instagram fans.

The US Sun reported how decorated former Mr. Olympia winner Lee Haney looks dramatically different decades after retiring from bodybuilding competitions.

Haney won eight Mr. Olympia gongs in a flawless streak between 1984 and 1991.

And Mr. Olympia finalist Derek Lunsford finished second in this year’s bodybuilding competition just a few years after he was a high school soccer student.
