I’m a fit cougar – and even work out on my birthday to make sure I stay in such good shape

A self-proclaimed “hot cougar” has revealed how much time she spends in the gym to maintain her impressive physique.

US-based fitness fan Niki shared a video on TikTok (where she’s known as @nikkigrind03) detailing some of her workouts.

In the clip captioned “What it takes to be a fit cougar,” Niki revealed that people sometimes struggle to understand her commitment to the gym.

She shared video footage of herself working out and superimposed captions over this moving footage.

Among the exercises the self-proclaimed “fit cougar” does in the video are weighted squats and walking lunges.

The first caption on the screen read, “People think I’m CRAZY for being at the gym on my birthday, but…”

Following this, the second caption reads, “This is what it takes to be a fit COUGAR.”

The term cougar, which is believed to have originated in Canada, first came to prominence in the late 1990s or early 2000s.

It refers to an attractive woman in her prime, usually in her 40s, who prefers younger men.
