Now Here is a Badass

Just forget the part where she says, “This is how Michelle Obama gets those biceps looking good……” Oh gimme a break … and besides, I never noticed Michelle Obama with good-looking biceps (??)
But Ernestine is ripped at 73, and she is smokin’. Besides having beautiful muscle, she’s a cardio maniac running 80 miles per week. Look at the cuts in her back at 73 (scroll down to watch video)! Thanks to Ymbel Diaz for the link.

Wow!! She IS HOT! 80 miles/freaking week??!! DUDE! My max mileage EVER was 11/day= 77/week! January of 1978! This lady certainly rocks. And that was the month that I put in a 21-miler (8 & 13 back-back). I was a sophomore in HS.
Did you notice how well built she was? Very attractive and very nice looking skin tone too…
@ JQ: You said that one of the steps/ways to health in old age was to stay viable sexually. I have to think that Ernestine also took good care of that requirement as well,
A side note: Read some articles (but knew this already b/c I had witnessed it). Women in France/Europe (in general) are in MUCH better shape than their counterparts in the USA b/c they have maintained their SEXUAL relationships well into their 70′s! Of course, w/ their beloveds (hey, the Cougar stuff is not going to work for me tonite OK>?>@).
I also just bought Omega 3 in the form of Flax Seed oil. Ya know? I douse myself in olives (I will die eating them or cheese – not sure); but I am not sure that I get enough of that essential fatty acid. Talking to my neighbor who is an MD & that is what he suggested.
He also complained of hitting the age 50 barrier w/ pain. And he is in good shape. At least he is starting to lift now.

Ernestine used to train at the same gym as I do; I haven’t seen her for a while. She’s more of a badass in person. She’s awesome.
