Meet an “AMAZING” Who is Living Proof That It’s Mever Too Late
Ernestine Shepherd, age 80, began body building at 56.

Ernestine Shepherd, age 80, began her career as a competitive bodybuilder in a most unusual way: she was a model for many years in Baltimore, who at 56 years of age, noticed her body wasn’t in shape anymore. That led to aerobics classes, which quickly led to bodybuilding.
Since then, Ernestine has won 2 bodybuilding titles, made it into the Guiness Book of Records, and has run 9 marathons. She currently runs about 80 miles a week, leads exercise classes for seniors, and works as a persona trainer. Oh, and wrote a book on fitness in her spare (?) time!
