There's no combo quite like great genes and the gym!

Fitness queen Denise Austin is hotter than ever at 60 years old, and her daughter is following right in her gym-shoe-clad footsteps! Katie Austin, a recent USC graduate, is a model, athlete, fitness trainer and all-around all star.

The mom and daughter duo hit the ESPYs red carpet on Wednesday looking more like sisters. We're not even sure where to look -- Denise's rock-hard arms or Katie's stellar stems?!

Denise has been a fitness icon for nearly three decades, launching her first workout video in 1988. The healthy lifestyle advocate married Jeff Austin, a sports agent and pro tennis player, and along came their two children! Katie, a D1 athlete, has since launched her own fitness career -- and if her buff bod can't get you motivated, nothing will.

  • Security operations in Jenin put spotlight on Palestinian Authority

    Palestinian Authority security forces are struggling to win the trust of residents of Jenin as they try to assert control over the city, a historic centre of Islamist militancy in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.

PA officials say the Authority wants to prevent Hamas and Islamic Jihad militants gaining the upper hand in Jenin and the wider West Bank, and establishing a rule similar to that of Hamas in Gaza which might antagonise Israel.
