I met this beautiful woman yesterday and let me tell you, she's more beautiful in person with a heart to match. She has an awesome figure. When I saw her, I yelled out hi Mrs. Shepherd you sure are an inspiration to many. She motioned for me to come talk to her and she said, give me a hug and then she hugged me again and said that I made her day. So sweet.
Ms. A yes I saw her in real life and I must say I was taken aback by her figure. I must admit I did a double take🤗. I couldn't believe what I was seeing
فهمي كتاني When I was younger, I used to be able to lift a lot now. I was inactive for two years so I have lost a ton of my strength which I’m slowly getting back
فهمي كتاني when I reply to you, the name goes behind the words and the bar follows you by line and not by letter. It’s so weird and cool at the same time. Not sure about why thenand is like that, but it’s only this way when I reply to you.
@@TheHick1997 how is this surgery? where is the surgery? surgery can't make you lift weights and walk 10 miles daily! nor can it make you look this young without making you look like scary plastic doll.
Chru cas if u bother to read the info written above it will tell you the right info...I don't mean to be negative but may be at this age it is possible she might have some sort of dementia, because the truth is she started lifting in her 50s...she also have many interviews in her 70s were she states she started in her 50s.
Zodiack Killer I took it as her saying that she started training competitively for body building at 71. It's hard to know the context of what she was saying because there's a lot of editing cuts in the interview.
The sound of her voice??? And that is supposed to mean...? Are you all using that as a gauge to determine if Ms. Ernestine is telling the truth about her age? Have you ever heard of anybody lying about their age making themselves older than what they really are.... excuse me...the 18 year old sporting fake ID as 21 so they can buy alcohol ..Or get into a club. Let's not lose sight of the moral of the story here people.
Too bad there’s no such thing as god.. it’s just a brainwashed ideology people live by even though there is more evidence to disprove it than there is to support it..
There's always at least one atheist in the bunch^ So bitter; feels the need to sour on every Christian in every thread of every social media group, page, or channel. Feel better now?
Yes!! 🙌🏻 I LOVED that she said devotionals! But 2:30am is when she gets up!? I’d love to know when she goes to bed! I bet she only needs 4-6 hours of sleep!

OMG! What an inspiration she is! When Covid started and closed my gym and water aerobics I weighed 161 pounds. I had lost 85 pounds after I developed a heart condition. I now am back up to 219!! I have edema very bad in my feet, ankles and calves again. I turned 70 this past December. After watching this video I am so motivated to say to myself yes you can do it again!! Thank you skool much!

You Go M's Ernestine! I grew up in church around her, Union Memorial United Methodist Church, Baltimore, MD. She and her husband Colin were devoted members, and friends to my mother, who helped shape my life. She can sing too! often having solo parts on the Sanctuary Choir. Her husband Colin, was Head of the Male Ushers for ions, and was like a father figure to all the Youth.

SniperRose I have a question, what’s the problem with your body and nails? What do you do on a normal day? What’s really gross and disgusting about your nails? I think there’s something that makes you less motivated than the woman in her 80s.
She has just inspired me. I could just cry because of some of the things I’ve gone through in the last few years. .. I am now ready to start the next chapter of my life at 69 and before I had watch this video I had decided to start walking again after multiple fractures on multiple levels in my back. Thank you 🙏
Much respect , age is just a number . I'm 60 in 2011 I suffered congestive heart failure I died twice on the operating table . I thought I was two old to get back into shape . I lift 6 days a week and I can curl 150 lbs. 120 times . I walk 4 miles a day , I'm 5'10 and weigh 210 lbs . Your never too old .

As a personal trainer and group fitness instructor...and only 57 years young...I aspire to grow up and be Ms. Shepherd. You have put in the work and are reaping the benefits...truly an inspiration!
Even if I'm just half her age, dmn at 80, she is gorgeous and very warm person. I'm Dutch, but dmn, I even think she would be a better president of the USA😁.
You are an inspiration to All the older population I am 61 and have worked out all my life Its a beautiful way to live as older adult you inspire me to keep going God bless you, keep spreading the word... Peace and love to all those thinking about changing to a healthier lifestyle it willl save your life...
Wow- awesome. I am 52 been lifting for years,’it’s hard to wake up and stay motivated, it’s soo easy to fall off the wagon. You look amazing, stay fit, lift light weight, eat well and watch you bp
You go, girl! This could've been me if it weren't for me having degenerative disc disease. I began weight training when I was 41 because of my being so little. As an EMT, my coworkers teased me, asking how I could be strong enough to lift my PTs & load them into the rig. So, I weight trained 3-4 days a week, & fell in love with my new routine. In under 3 mo. I had begun to get "ripped", & decided to keep going with it. Everyone was impressed with my dedication & how quickly I was building muscle. I had no issues with lifting PTs. I began having excruciating lower back pain. I found out I was losing the cushion in my spine. I had to stop body building & I had to quit my dream job. It was a double whammy of bad news. It was fun while it lasted. I'm 54 now & getting ready for back surgery #3. God bless this lady for starting so late in life. John 14:6
I have the same thing as you but I am not mentally ready for back surgery. I workout everyday doing everything low impact; classical stretch, chair yoga, pilates, low impact aerobics, walking and trampoline and I have lost weight and my pain is very minimal although I get flare ups every now and then. I have also changed my diet; allot of fresh foods, only dairy is in my tea and minimum processed foods.
Society is so caught up with age. I have also felt that age is really just a number. It is about how you feel, how you take care of yourself, and the power words that we speak over our life. Examples: I am strong I am healthy I look 20 years younger than my age I am energetic
Exactly. And besides, if you can afford it, just get a lift here and there if ya know what I'm sayin'. XD People holding women's own mortality against them like it's their fault really are something else. It actually points to insanity if you think about it. "LOL, you're mortal. And I'm somehow special and escape this, cuz I'm special and the rules of mortality don't apply to me." And?
Ernestine: I started training at age seven- me: oh so pretty young Ernestine: tee(n) me: still pretty young but seems about right Ernestine: one me: oh...
And because of people like this I get motivated to never give up. Not only in exercising also in general. These people show us how beautiful life can be if we believe in ourselves. 💪🏻❤️
Wow! This very matured lady training in her heels (not advisable) started training when she was 71, has put me to shame, I now have no excuse too loose my body fat ....!👏❤️
I use to go to ger class about 5 or 6 years ago in baltimore. She is about ger business. She had a assistant in her class to help people with the right form and to help yell" up down" lol cause miss Ernestein was not about to be straining her voice lol. Her body looked better than mine and i was about 24 at the time lol
@@clojp7842 Imagine this, a 68 year old man can 'feel' like a little boy again and hangs around with little girls because he is mentally and emotionally 16. Is what "you are as young as you feel" can be taken as. I'm aware it is usually with fitness but it just sounds creepy to me.
This brought a tear to my eye. I’m so proud of her and don’t even know her.Im getting old maybe almost half her age and this is motivation because she looks great and seems to have a beautiful attitude towards life
In the grocery store, a beautiful old lady said hi to me. When I looked at her, she was so stunning, that I politely asked her age. She said, "I'm 92, and my husband is 95, and I can still run if I have too." I told her she looks fantastic and I hope I look as good as she does if I make it to her age.
Thank you so much for posting this video. I feel like I have hope in my body. After my husband died in 2020 I stopped eating for a while his death was such a shock. My body started wasting away and I later found out what happened to my muscles was a condition called Sarcopenia. After watching you at 80 years of age was an encouragement. I’m 60 and because of you I’m going to diligently start exercising!!! I thank the Lord for you🙏🏽🙌🏼☝🏽
Oh, Veda, I’m so very sorry for your great loss. 😔 I’m so glad you started exercising. How is it going? I know your husband would be so happy you’re taking care of yourself. Blessings to you! 🙏🏻❤️
She started at 71!? damn I would've assumed it was something she's done all her life. What an inspiration.
Amy Duong I'll start when my social security kicks in. Until then i have 2 jobs and a teenager to occupy my time.

The title should've been "80 years young"
Beautiful❣️👏👏
Right!!!!
Most adults my age can't even jog two miles.
But this woman in her advanced age can do ten lol.
Why does that sound familiar
More like 80 years black

@@kutieluvsmj7 Thx babez
SniperRose I have a question, what’s the problem with your body and nails? What do you do on a normal day? What’s really gross and disgusting about your nails? I think there’s something that makes you less motivated than the woman in her 80s.
Damn. "Black don't crack" is accurate here.
But not most of the time lol. So its not really a thing is it.
@@D9Wx Sounds like this bothers you.
Please disregard my message, I see that you watch Jesse Lee Peterson. It makes sense why you replied to the original comment.
@@D9Wx sounds like you look 80
Dannynorw does it bother you that white people age like milk?
She has just inspired me. I could just cry because of some of the things I’ve gone through in the last few years. .. I am now ready to start the next chapter of my life at 69 and before I had watch this video I had decided to start walking again after multiple fractures on multiple levels in my back. Thank you 🙏
“Getting old” is a mind frame. Look at this lady go! At 80!!😍
Much respect , age is just a number . I'm 60 in 2011 I suffered congestive heart failure I died twice on the operating table . I thought I was two old to get back into shape . I lift 6 days a week and I can curl 150 lbs. 120 times . I walk 4 miles a day , I'm 5'10 and weigh 210 lbs . Your never too old .
Wow well done!
@@youruniquestyle Thanks .
Timothy Walters just curious do you know how it felt by any chance being dead for a bit?
@@markassbrownlee2739 It was like when you place a canister in one of those tubes at the bank and the tube sucks it up . I felt my life being sucked out , then in just as fast . That's the only way I can explain it .
Timothy Walters oh wow 😮
Damn I need to change my whole life!
Me too
Me toó 😂
Got plenty of time until I'm 71!
My Username how are you know 😂🖐
😂😂😂😂😂 me too
I've admired Ernestine Shepherd for years, and think of her as a role model both physically and spiritually 🙏🏾
Hello beautiful
This woman is on hormone replacement therapy right?
@@nickmeale1957 I don't know, never considered that.
@@andreajackson4764 If, and thats a big if, she wasn't using some sort of enhamcement drug I would be very surprised. If you found out she was using something would your dreams be a little crushed you think?
@@nickmeale1957 No one, and no commentary, would have the power to crush my dreams. EOM
My jaw literally dropped! What an amazing woman 😍.
She is doing everything wrong tho fr
Omg here i found ur jaw
As a personal trainer and group fitness instructor...and only 57 years young...I aspire to grow up and be Ms. Shepherd. You have put in the work and are reaping the benefits...truly an inspiration!
Totally agree cause pretty much if an 80+ year old woman can do this then no excuse we younger age women can't do that.
Damn 57...a hop, skip, and you WILL be Ms. Shepard. Damn...were you born when BEING a Shepard was actually a viable occupation... SHEESH.
@@datdudecee6298 😉
She is absolutely gorgeous, amazing and inspirational.
Facts...
Even if I'm just half her age, dmn at 80, she is gorgeous and very warm person. I'm Dutch, but dmn, I even think she would be a better president of the USA😁.
You are an inspiration to
All the older population
I am 61 and have worked out all my life
Its a beautiful way to live as older adult you inspire me to keep going God bless you, keep spreading the word...
Peace and love to all those thinking about changing to a healthier lifestyle it willl save your life...
I have nothing but the utmost respect and admiration for this young lady! Thank you for your dedication and focus! Super awesomeness!
To be that pretty at 80.😥 I know she has man problems. Grandpas calling her at all hours begging.
@WhatsHappening783402 very good point
@WhatsHappening783402 just dudes? it's 2019
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂amen honey
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Put respect on it!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Wow- awesome. I am 52 been lifting for years,’it’s hard to wake up and stay motivated, it’s soo easy to fall off the wagon. You look amazing, stay fit, lift light weight, eat well and watch you bp
1968...here here
It IS hard to stay motivated.
I need to jump back on it.
Мы с Вами одного возраста люблю бег, йогу, силовые тренировки, лыжи и плавание. Она меня очень вдохновляет.
Thank you RUclips now I literally have no excuse.
Right with an attitude
Lmao same thing I said!
You go, girl! This could've been me if it weren't for me having degenerative disc disease. I began weight training when I was 41 because of my being so little. As an EMT, my coworkers teased me, asking how I could be strong enough to lift my PTs & load them into the rig. So, I weight trained 3-4 days a week, & fell in love with my new routine. In under 3 mo. I had begun to get "ripped", & decided to keep going with it. Everyone was impressed with my dedication & how quickly I was building muscle. I had no issues with lifting PTs. I began having excruciating lower back pain. I found out I was losing the cushion in my spine. I had to stop body building & I had to quit my dream job. It was a double whammy of bad news. It was fun while it lasted. I'm 54 now & getting ready for back surgery #3. God bless this lady for starting so late in life. John 14:6
!!
I've heard of people healing their joints by going on the zero carb/carnivore diet. I don't know if it would help, but it can't hurt to look into it.
I have the same thing as you but I am not mentally ready for back surgery. I workout everyday doing everything low impact; classical stretch, chair yoga, pilates, low impact aerobics, walking and trampoline and I have lost weight and my pain is very minimal although I get flare ups every now and then.
I have also changed my diet; allot of fresh foods, only dairy is in my tea and minimum processed foods.
Ginger is really good for pain and inflammation. Juice it, tea and or just eat it. Your only limitations are what you allow to limit you.
Her body doesn't look like 80 at all
Neither does her face.
@@crystalwingate6962 u took the exact phrase right out of my mouth
Society is so caught up with age. I have also felt that age is really just a number. It is about how you feel, how you take care of yourself, and the power words that we speak over our life.
Examples:
I am strong
I am healthy
I look 20 years younger than my age
I am energetic
No. Age is a measurement of how old your ass is. A 60 year old ladies breasts are gonna sag 100x more than a younger ladies
@Material Girl it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make
Aging is that long life one prays for but unwilling to embrace. This woman embraced it and lives her life to the fullest.
Exactly. And besides, if you can afford it, just get a lift here and there if ya know what I'm sayin'. XD
People holding women's own mortality against them like it's their fault really are something else. It actually points to insanity if you think about it. "LOL, you're mortal. And I'm somehow special and escape this, cuz I'm special and the rules of mortality don't apply to me."
And?
@@Libtardo123 a breast of a 60 year old male will sag too, that's why these old males walking with mentiddies around should wear bra
She's the epitome of the term phrase: " No excuses!". "My grandmother can lift more weights than you "
That is really impressive! Good on her and the other ladies that have no age limit on training. Well done!
Hound Life Vlogs it really is 😊👍🏻
"WOW"!!! 😳 OKAY, LET "ME" GET OFF THIS COUCH, "NOW"!!😂😂
NOW!
Marva Newborn LOLLLLLLLLLL.ME TOO...N HERE I was thinking my 49 was old
I'm very sure you did not get up but instead continued to browse for more videos
😂😂😂YOU KNOW THAT'S "EXACTLY" WHAT I DID AND BEEN DO'IN!!😂😂😂THIS A SHAME!!😂😣
@@1233-k6v exactly
Ernestine: I started training at age seven-
me: oh so pretty young
Ernestine: tee(n)
me: still pretty young but seems about right
Ernestine: one
me: oh...
This video made me emotional to learn her sister died, but then your comment has made me laugh so hard. Thank you.
😂
The last 30 seconds made me cry & inspired me to keep working out. I got this 💪🏾
If that inspired you to keep working out then perhaps you should use the "Save video offline" feature...
And because of people like this I get motivated to never give up. Not only in exercising also in general. These people show us how beautiful life can be if we believe in ourselves. 💪🏻❤️
Wow! This very matured lady training in her heels (not advisable) started training when she was 71, has put me to shame, I now have no excuse too loose my body fat ....!👏❤️
She is 80!? Well it’s true black don’t crack!!
I love how humble she is!!!
She started at 71? Okay I'll wait for
50 years.
*dies at age 70*
God dammit Reaper - couldn't wait for one more frekin year !
🤣... cmon join the gang now ❤️...
Life isn’t promised tomorrow
Carlos Infinite sadly you are soo right ☹️
@hanselxy yep, hurt my knees in the gym.
I use to go to ger class about 5 or 6 years ago in baltimore. She is about ger business. She had a assistant in her class to help people with the right form and to help yell" up down" lol cause miss Ernestein was not about to be straining her voice lol. Her body looked better than mine and i was about 24 at the time lol
😂😂😂😂 im late to watching this but for some reason I can see her saying she not straining her voice. She's too cute
Do u still look like trash?
*You are as young as you feel*
Rajhean Rodriques yep
People can take that the wrong way.
@@ebaeba2445 how come?
@@clojp7842 Imagine this, a 68 year old man can 'feel' like a little boy again and hangs around with little girls because he is mentally and emotionally 16. Is what "you are as young as you feel" can be taken as. I'm aware it is usually with fitness but it just sounds creepy to me.
No your age is determined by how long you've been alive for. Hope this helped!
This brought a tear to my eye. I’m so proud of her and don’t even know her.Im getting old maybe almost half her age and this is motivation because she looks great and seems to have a beautiful attitude towards life
She use 80 years of age instead of 80years old
80 years young
Words really do make a difference
In the grocery store, a beautiful old lady said hi to me. When I looked at her, she was so stunning, that I politely asked her age. She said, "I'm 92, and my husband is 95, and I can still run if I have too." I told her she looks fantastic and I hope I look as good as she does if I make it to her age.
Your amazing. I posted your pics in my workout room to motivate me. God Bless You!!!
Thank you so much for posting this video. I feel like I have hope in my body. After my husband died in 2020 I stopped eating for a while his death was such a shock. My body started wasting away and I later found out what happened to my muscles was a condition called Sarcopenia. After watching you at 80 years of age was an encouragement. I’m 60 and because of you I’m going to diligently start exercising!!! I thank the Lord for you🙏🏽🙌🏼☝🏽
👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪
Oh, Veda, I’m so very sorry for your great loss. 😔 I’m so glad you started exercising. How is it going? I know your husband would be so happy you’re taking care of yourself. Blessings to you! 🙏🏻❤️
with stilettos? you go girl!!!
Fml she benches more than I do
work on it
she curls more than me

Ernestine Shepherd if you are reading this thank you, you are an inspiration to us all. Amazing :)
I'm in my forties, I have no excuses. Ernestine, you are an inspiration!

Amazing, inspiring, and mind blowing.
