Dexter‘s Julie Benz wowed her social media followers with her rock-hard abs, as she donned a green bikini in a recent post.
The star, who turned 54 on May 1, celebrated her birthday by proving that age is just a number.
Julie, who also rocked a fedora hat and sleek shades in the post, enjoyed a poolside day with her friend and captioned the shots: “This is what strong looks like. 53 (almost 54) & 59.”
Followers cheered Julie on and commented on her youthful appearance. One person wrote: “Wow, stunning ladies,” while another wrote: “This is what strong and gorgeousness looks like.”
A third fan joked: “Ok we’re going to need to see some birth certificates for proof of age because this looks like a pic of two college students.”

Julie is a huge fan of cycling to quickly increase her heart beat at a rapid pace.

In order to challenge herself even more, the actress adds in resistance bands to her additional floor workouts.
Her favorite exercise is doing a plank while taking turns raising each leg up high in the air behind her.

She also enjoys trampoline workouts, as well as strength and weight training. The entertainer enjoys going out for a walk in nature while listening to podcasts on her lighter days.
