1. Yes I can

and I'm 43 still kicking it on weights and cardio-vascular.

I got carded for beer a few weeks ago.

[Logical]

18. Ok

[Aerows]

19. Weights:

Lift them.

Miles:

Run them.

[hollysmom]

2. I was shocked to hear that Manu (naked and afraid and Migrations) is 45

that is a woman who must have spent years in the sun, but she is very determined and someone I would like to know for her personal experiences.

[joshcryer]

7. I loved her on that!

I was also surprised at her age. She even fought of Dengue fever!

[hollysmom]

11. all Ihave to say is she didn't deserve those damn warthogs. She is far too interesting.

[Skittles]

3. no

[Aerows]

15. I can definitely believe it.

Not a hoax, imho. I've waved bye bye to 40, but I've practiced martial arts and lifted weights since I was 19.

Still clock under 110, but hope springs eternal.

[Binkie The Clown]

4. It said so on the Internet, so it MUST be true. n/t

[Javaman]

5. she picked up swimming at 30, which means she didn't destroy her body as young athlete.

I'm paying that price now at 52.

40+ years of running and of that 10 years of competitive training and competition.

bad knees, Bad hips, all sorts of tendon issues, bone spurs, sun damaged skin, multiple scars from falls and pin spike scars, etc.

[Aerows]

25. Rowing kicks ass

and is healthier on your joints. I didn't quite catch on to it until I pulled a tendon. It gives you a runner's high but you can row in doors and it is low impact.

It rather rocks!

[Javaman]

28. I forgot to add bad back a well.

I did a number on myself.

I tried rowing, I liked it but my back didn't

[GOLGO 13]

6. Her physique is exceptional.

Too bad they haven't shown her face. Lifting weights is the best exercise ever.

[Aerows]

16. I lift regularly

and for low impact, I row. Perfect exercise to be kind on your joints but give you a killer work out.

[RussBLib]

8. check back with me at age 60

plus, I don't believe much out of China these days.

[snooper2]

9. not sure, we may have to cut off a limb and start counting

LOL

[TexasMommaWithAHat]

13. LOL

NT

[closeupready]

10. Yes - she looks good, and at first glance could be 30-something, but

yes, I can believe she's 50.

For the record, I've seen people in their 60's who look 'older' but are in twice as good shape and twice as sexy as people in their early 20's. It's a rare specimen, admittedly, and it takes a LOT of work, but let me say as someone who has never been obese nor even really fat, and who exercises about an hour per day, and adheres to a reasonably healthy diet, it's possible to look good no matter what your age.

[Xyzse]

12. Why yes... I worship the cult of Tony Horton.

He says that "aging is for idiots" jokingly.

Either way, I need to learn how to swim.

[sarcasmo]

14. Amazing.

[mythology]

17. About as much as I believe all of the Chinese gymnasts meet the age requirements

for Rio.

Virtually nothing that comes out of China can be taken at face value given how obsessed they are with selling the world on how great China is.

[Aerows]

20. Great to have a racist

interject their opinion.

3 or 4 people have already told you in this thread that they, or those they know are in superb shape and look decades younger.

But go on being a hater - I'll outrun your ass every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

[LisaL]

22. So the photo is on the internet of somebody supposedly 50, but looking much younger-

then it must be true (no proof needed).

[Aerows]

23. I didn't make the comments

You did. I merely responded to your comments.

I don't need to sit here and wonder if a 50 year old can look fantastic. I already know plenty of examples. I'm not there yet, but when I get to 50? You can bet your bottom dollar I'll be outrunning and outlifting 20 somethings.

Outswimming, too, just not in the Gulf - too polluted at this point.

[snooper2]

30. How will you be able to outrun 20 somethings when you can't outrun a little raccoon?

LOL

[Orrex]

36. OMG.

I very seldom LOL, but I LOL'ed at that.

[Logical]

29. Lol, ok. Nt

[LisaL]

21. Yep.

How do we know how old she actually is?

[yuiyoshida]

27. so all Chinese are liars?

got it, message received!

[Blasphemer]

24. Well she looked 18 when she was 30...

So it's probably down to good genes and not her workout routine.

[Beaverhausen]

26. She also has fake boobs and other surgery

But if she's happy I'm happy.

But I don't believe for a minute all of that is just from working out.

[betsuni]

31. Yes, fake boobs and other surgery (not that there's anything wrong with that).

I like her original small lithe body.

[Arazi]

32. Demi Moore is also in her 50s and looks 30. It's all fitness!!11!!

[hobbit709]

33. I have a friend that bellydances. She's 67 and doesn't look it.

A close look at her face and you'll see fine wrinkles around her eyes. Her body looks like a fit woman in her 40's.

[closeupready]

34. Dancing is an incredible way to keep in shape.

Time and again I see older people who dance as part of their living, and they routinely look much younger than their age.

[TexasMommaWithAHat]

35. Working out will not give you breasts like that.

She's had some work done, but even considering that, she looks much younger than an average 50 year old "who has had work done."

And, no, you can't have breasts that look like that at 50 just by working out. Nope.
