Fit At Any Age


Ernestine Shepherd
Guinness World Records oldest female bodybuilder

Who would ever believe this woman is 75 years old?!

Not only does she look awesome for her age... she looks better than some women 1/2 her age!!!

But she didnt always look this way...

At the age of 56, she made a choice to get fit & healthy and she never looked back!!!

Shepherd states, " she began her workout regimen alongside her sister. Starting out with a simple aeorobics class, then increasing her workout incrementally. She had never given much thought to bodybuilding until a trainer at her gym suggested she start lifting weights. Once she began to see the effects of lifting weights, she dedicated herself to becoming the oldest fitness competitor. Then, she took up running, which led to her completing eight marathons."




Shepherd states, "she eats several small meals a day as part of a diet plan she formulated with her trainers. She takes in 1,700 calories a day, mostly comprised of boiled egg whites, chicken, vegetables and a liquid egg white drink. And she is adamant that she does not use performance-enhancing drugs or even supplements beyond vitamin D"




She is living proof that you are never to old to get into shape....

 So what is your excuse now?!
