A 75-year-old year grandmother from Maryland is proving that it’s truly never too late to get in shape.
Ernestine Shepherd of Baltimore kicks each day off with a 10-mile jog at 2:30am before hitting the gym to train clients and maintain her chiseled body.
“Age ain’t nothing but a number,” Shepherd told AOL Weird News, at BookExpo America 2011 in New York City’s Jacob K Javits Centre earlier this year. “I feel younger now than I did 20 years ago.”
Officially the world’s oldest bodybuilder, Ernestine, or “Miss Ernie”, as she is known in the world of competitive bodybuilding, began weight training at the tender age of 71, according to BBC News.
Remember that to build muscle, you need to lift heavy weights for about 3-15 repetitions, rather than aiming for more repetitions; also use free weights to build muscle.D-Bal
