I know Ms. Ernestine, who is 20 years my senior and has been my inspiration for years. I hope what people get from this video is that it's never too late to start; Ms. E started at age 56. Commitment and consistency to your health and fitness will not only transform your body but also your life.

She is a beautiful inspiration. I've heard her say in other interviews that her faith in God, her spiritual wellbeing plays a major role in her health, vitality and vibrancy!
Let's not leave that out! 😊😁

Wow❤!!! I am 73 years old and I run a little under a mile, lift weights, stretch, karate workout, etc; you’re an inspiration for me to keep it up. Thank you so much for making this and sharing it with the general. Age is indeed nothing but a number!!! Kudos to you😊

How encouraging is this? Wowzer!...I was always active in my youth and competed in the 80s. At 38 I did my last contest after having a baby, I just wanted to see if I could come back. I looked great, but single parenting had it's priorities. At 66 I went back into the gym April of 2022. It's almost been a year and I can't believe how my body has transformed back to my competitive days. I'm so happy. You got to do the work.

Doctors just wanted me on drugs that could have nasty side effects trying to get off them...I never took the prescription, but every time i went in he would ask me if I needed the prescription filled?! Did he was me hooked? Scary thing for sure. I went back to bodybuilding style of eating and training and took care of it myself! We have to be our own advocate or end up a druggy.

It's never too late, just start. I'm excited now to see how my fitness develops each birthday. This year I'll be 68 and thank you Ms. Shepherd for giving us something to look forward to. I'm totally reinspired!

All I can say is wow!I too am on my fitness journey at 46, I've lost 55 pounds since last July, I plan to lose 50 more by this July, what a blessing you are.

She is a walking testament that you can improve at any age. Fountain of youth

[EvolverWellness]

I heard her say in an interview that she also reads her bible each am, and gives the credit for her health to God. Don't think that should be left out. Her mindset is very much informed by her Bible study.

This woman needs a standing ovation. Kudos to her fitness regime.

Ms. Ernestine is an inspiration to women and one thing I'd like to add to her statement about positivity -- keep the wrong people out of your life. The wrong people are those whose values do not align with yours, negative, know-it-all's, back biters, manipulators etc. Cut them out of your life if they're in it, if they're trying to get in, don't let them.

[andrewstaples]

She's such an inspirational person this goes out to all the older people just because you're getting old that doesn't mean you have have to look, act and be old

I had the pleasure to meet Ms Shepherd at a Workout Expo a few years ago. Her demeanor was so calm and peaceful . She is such a sweet soul and inspiration. She lead a workout in heels! She took the time to take pictures with everyone, give one on one advise and sign autographs.

It just comes to show age is just a number; yes you CAN be in the best shape of your life by taking care of yourself physically and mentally. This woman is such an inspiration and looks good 86 years young.

[osiriswills]

[chocolate-soulja]

I'm 40 just now getting up their in age. I've been working out since I was in my early 20's. I'm not slowing down anytime soon. She's definitely my inspiration ✊️💪🙌💯💢

[christyavalos]

She is absolutely stunning! How can she have no crepey skin at that age? Wow, what an inspiration.

Ms. Eerinstine is just amazing I'm 62 and I take care of myself but looking at Ms Eernistine I know I can do better. She's inspiring, beautiful, smart and healthy.
