Have you ever been sitting in the movie theater, watching the Oscars, or flipping through gossip magazines and just thought, "Celebrities seem to have it all, don't they?" Fame, money, washboard abs. Life is a peach for the ladies of the red carpet (personal scandals aside). However, before you get jealous of gorgeous celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Eva Mendes for their enviable bodies and income brackets, you should know they work hard for their assets -- particularly the ones men ogle over and we dream of having.
The women of Hollywood might have some slight advantages: There's genetics, of course. But they've also got access to the best fitness trainers in the world, and enough money and time to invest in those trainers. So sure, they've got a one up, but does that mean you should give up on the body of your dreams? The tight butt of a superstar? The svelte thighs of a pop star? The lean arms you see on the big screen? No. And even if you don't care about getting Aniston's body, it never hurts to learn some new tone-up tips, right?
To help you reach your fitness goals, we chatted with the trainers of the hottest bods in Hollywood. Our goal? To find out the exact exercises and general fitness tips they teach their A-list clients in order to get them toned and tight. These blockbuster moves will get you into shape, and who knows, maybe even an agent.
Of course, pictures of the actual exercises would be nice but lets exercise our brains here as well people! I have heard of these exercises and I highly doubt that is the ONLY thing they swear by. These are very helpful and it's awesome that these trainers share these tips with us just to help us feel as beautiful as these starlets.
Some of these exercised will be very useful! Although I won't find myself trying the pull-throughs at the gym in front of all the guys working out. They're a bit awkward in front of others...though they look great for core toning
Wow Reese looks absolutely gorgeous in that picture. I agree that pictures would have been really helpful. It's a little hard to understand just from the descriptions.
inspiring! although i'm sure it would help to have a personal trainer available 24-7 too ;) i've been doing bikram yoga for 3 months and LOVE it but need to add extra cardio too...these tips will help
its all about combining cardio with strength exercises. You can run all day, lose weight, but then you will get stuck because your body gets used to it. Strength exercising with weights or resistance bands must be added, and when you do that, you will keep burning off calories for the next 24 hrs because the muscle is trying to heal itself from the work. and also remember its 80 % diet and 20 % exercise.
Great article! I think I will change up my routine with some of these suggestions. BTW, instead of running, try an elliptical, nordic track, or rowing for a full body, weight bearing aerobic workout that is just as effective as running and will save your knees!
