Wow! Who are the 3 fools who disliked this vid?! She is amazing! Definitely inspiring for me. I've been running for about a year and have had some setbacks but now there are no more excuses for me.. just do it.
1:15 some wonder wow. Its not bad at all she's doing everything right I'm sure her health is top notch. This is what we all need to do but that would be the fast food industries nightmare.
You are simply a Beautiful person that shines in this video, what you are doing with others makes an individual have an aspiration to want to become fit. True Blessings for you.
Yea, there Are no excuses. If you want to be strong, in shape, youthful appearance, energetic, Eat healthy, exercise. If you want to be overweight, risk stroke, high cholesterol, deep wrinkles, weak bones, no energy, keep eating shit foods. Time to take responsability, if others can do it, You can. Convenience=lazy
If I could look like that...I feel like going and working out today!! This is how Ernestine has inspired me. I have no excuse. She has 30 years on me and I have no excuse not to get in shape. God bless her!!
There are no excuses for not staying fit...if you want to look this good you need to start to take responsibility for your life. The foods we eat, exercise and keeping your mind relaxed and focused on your goals! This woman is an inspiration to all ages!
Thank you Ernestine for inspiring me to get out and get into shape. u are incredibly beautiful and a inspiration to me. when i watched your video. i said to myself " OMG! i better stop procrastinating and stop making excuses". Keep doing what you're doing. i'll see u at the top. Peace!
Thank you Ernestine, i'm on my way to a fab body like yours. I will be starting today. You are absolutely incredibly beautiful and in better shape than most 20 yrs olds- never seen anything like it. All u lazy folks out their complaining about old age, aches and pains, get off you butts and just do it! Peace!
Holy cow! I've been working out for months trying to get my pre-pregnancy body back, but this woman is the same age as my grandma and looks better than I ever have. I'm definitely a fan.
@girlinseattle actually she started at 54, which is still so inspiring i know ppl that are complaining that they are too old and they are only in there 40s
@TikiShootah Uh, the people that say that do not believe that. That is just one of those things that evil people hope that if it is repeated enough, black women will feel oppressed. Look at the plastic surgeries being done and what is seen as "beauty" nowadays. Think about it.
Mrs Shepard is what all Americans Can do or look and feel like. And as Black Americans as i am . We are the most overweight , society in the nation. Eating better, MUCH better, and exercising daily, no matter how little or long Will improve your life, And many of us will be saved by it. Kool lady
I think what I like the best about her is that she isn't a old woman trying to be young. That's how you truly inspire people! She acts her age, and because she spreads her wisdom, and giving spirit, looking young comes naturally. I don't even know her and I just get that from her.
I know there are so many healthy senior citizens out there but her? She's out of this world! I can't believe her skin tone, it's like that of a 20-year old. Not to mention the way she talks and is so energetic. I really hope to stay healthy and live a long life like her :)
Woww!!! My turrn!! I'm ready/motivated 4 sure now!! I may put it on youtube at the weight I am now to my ideal body mass weight, while trying to keep my womanly curves at the same time. Don't want the childsize/teensize body I once had{nooo thaaannk yuhh....haaated iit}.
{Oh pardon 4 the same posts had a typo n I can't seem to delete them.}
OHHHH MY FREAKIN' GOODNESS!!! WHAT IN THEE WORLD??? I CANNOT BELIEVE MY EYES!!! I thought all hope was gone...well maybe not ALL hope but at my age, I thought a body could never get back to that kind of shape without surgery. This is so wonderfully awesome and inspiring. She just got a new fan. God is so tremendously beautiful and so is Ms. Shepherd!
Ms. Ernestine looks amazing & is amazing! I really need to get back on the ball & workout. She will be around a long time. It's great that she is motivationing other seniors to get fit. May God Bless her in every way, shape, & form.
Im a bodybuilder and me and some friends met Ms Ernestine 10 years ago at a bodybuilding show. I was about 30 years old then and she was looking soo hot her black catsuit cowboy boots and hat that she had me and all my friends trying to get her phone number!! I think she was about 63 then! Now Im a personal trainer in Va Beach and all my clients want to be like her! Thank God for you Ernestine!!! BootCamp for Women-BodyByKen
what an inspiration. I'm inspired to do this for myself. It is totally possible. According to reports, Mrs Shepard didn't start training until she was in her 50's. What's my excuse?
Did you see her SKIN?? Dang, that is amazing. Who knows how long she'll live for? WIth a body like that, she has got some SERIOUS yrs still ahead of her. God bless her ^_^
Yeah and with the oldest woman ever lived being like 120, I'm sure she'll live beyond that. I couldn't imagine her dying at 90 because she's already this old or young or whatever looking as great as she does. I'm gonna do the same when I get old too.
As a dancer/instructor, I always worry that when I get to her age, I won't be able to continue doing and looking the way I do now. Thank you Ernestine! You are absolutely gorgeous at 72. You are an inspiration to all, no matter what their age!
This is my inspiration. It's good to know that I have many more years of good health and fitness left. This is what a good life, heart and spirit looks like. God truly has favor on her life! I'm certainly a believer that this can be me too!
Wow! This is AMAZING! How encouraging! She is just 71 and working it! I surely don't take for granted working out now, this has inspired me to get on the go! she is simply gorgeous and has a face and body of a 40 year old. May God continue to bless and give you strength to teach and encourage all to becoming fit!
