Well, we checked and yes she is 52 years old. When I saw that she was over 50, I was floored. She looks amazing and has incredible energy as a person and business woman. Denise has been working on fitness videos and writing books for the last 25 years. Her first big break in to the public eye was on the Jack LaLanne show in 1981. Since then she has sold over 20 million videos and DVDs as well as multiple books on fitness.
I found a article on in the LA Times that she recently wrote titled "Denise Austin: Q & A with a fitness guru". It touches on tips for fitness for women like her, over 50.
When asked "What can women expect from their bodies after 50?"
This was Denise's response excerpted from the article:
"I believe a woman can get a fit, toned and sexy body at 50, but she has to work out for it. Fight gravity all the way. Exercise is a must. Especially muscle-conditioning moves. To keep up your muscle tone and firm up, work out at least three times a week with weights, your own body weight, Pilates or boot-camp-type exercises that focus on strength."

She has a new DVD that was released on Sept 15 and two more coming out in time for the holidays with a new book to follow after the first of the year. Even if you are not a fan of exercising or Denise Austin you can still appreciate the fact that she looks great for any age, especially 52!
