“OLDEST BODY BUILDER ERNESTINE SHEPHERD ”

She is 76 years old “she started working out in her 50′s which truly shows no one is ever too old to get fit! She was trained by a former Miss America.” “She runs 10 miles or more a day? How many of us can’t even run 1 mile at a time?”

“If we, as women and men, truly look to our elders, like Mrs. Ernestine Shepherd, we could learn so much. Its time that we, as people, find a true purpose. We write so much on the negative issues in our world, when we there are wonderful examples of the good side of our world like Mrs. Shepherd. If we could really focus on self preservation, respecting others and helping others in what we do, God would be so pleased. Let’s get inspired by this angel of a woman that should make anyone jump up and get a heads start on being fit for life. We’re running at this moment….!! Lol”

When people tell me they’re afraid of getting old and wrinkled and saggy and frail, I just wanna throw this woman at them.

Lift weights. Move. Eat well. Stay mobile. Thats how you stay young and thats how you enjoy your old age. Who wants to be pushing a walker or lying in bed all day with arthritis and complaining about their lost youth when they’re 75? Nobody. So do the work.
