Ernestine Shepherd is 74 years old with a six-pack and has been crowned by the Guiness Book of World Records as the oldest competitive female bodybuilder ever. What's surprising is that she says she was a couch-potato until she was 56 years old. This goes to show it's never too late to start living a healthy lifestyle!! How's that for inspiration?

    Ernie (as she prefers to be called) is my number one role model! If she can do it, none of us should have an excuse. There are also a lot of youtube videos of her as well. I would love to meet her one day!
  • Wow, she's gorgeous! Very inspiring.

    Wow that is one sexy 74 year old! lol

    I was thinking I can do this until i read that she drinks egg whites, I would rather have them scrambled or eat a different kind of protein.

    She is the perfect example of 'Black Don't Crack'
