83-year-old senator beats high school student in push-up competition

Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley was challenged to a push-up contest by a high school student late last week.

The 83-year-old lawmaker won.

In a video tweeted by the senator’s office, Grassley completed 19 push-ups while the teenager struggled to complete 10.

Grassley was visiting St. Ansgar High School in Iowa on Thursday when the challenge took place.
