7Ernestine Shepherd
Finally a lady, and be sure this is a special one. Ernestine is in her 80s and she refuses to submit to knitting sweaters, sitting in the chair watching TV all day long and wearing sweaters grandchildren gave her for Christmas. Instead, this lively 80-year-old spends her days in the gym as a personal trainer, a fitness model, and a competitive bodybuilder. To make her story more interesting, we found out that she actually started doing this when she was 56 and began competing as a bodybuilder at the age of 71.
