What are the Celebrity's Favorite
Exercise Routines
Pilates, Yoga,
Cardio, and weight training are favorite work out routines for many
celebrities.
Celebrities
such as: Gwyneth Paltrow, Uma Thurman, Julia Roberts and even Kenney
Chesney, state that ‘Pilates’ is always a favorite among the exercise
routines these and other celebrities use to maintain their trim and fit
bodies. “Pilates” consists of more than 450 different stretches and moves
that improve one’s posture, increases flexibility, and has even proven to be
a good way to ‘relieve’ stress, when done on a regular basis.
When
celebrities are asked what their favorite exercise routines are, the word:
“yoga” comes up often. This ancient art of slow-stretching movements,
‘concentrated’ breathing, and meditation exercises: improves the fluidity of
joints, strengthens muscles, reduces stress, and helps you to ‘connect’ with
your ‘inner-self’ for a complete exercise routine for the mind, body, and
spirit.
Many
celebrities enjoy exercise routines that include a lot of ‘cardio’ and
celebrities such as: Jennifer Lopez, Cameron Diaz, and Jessica Simpson, have
all said their favorite exercise routines include time on the treadmill or
stair climber for a ‘good’ cardio work out. To get the most benefits,
‘cardio’ should be done 3-5 times a week.
Actor Tom
Cruise doesn’t need a lot of fancy equipment for one of his favorite
exercise routines-walking. Friends say that Mr. Cruise, seems to always be
on the ‘move’, and this has certainly been documented in many a photograph.
So whether walking briskly through an airport on his way to his next film
location, or walking down a sidewalk surrounded by ‘frenzied’ fans, Tom,
‘walks’ his way to the fit and firm body that his female fans just cannot
get enough of seeing these days.
Other
celebrities devout themselves to weight training for the exercise routines
they choose most often to help them maintain those “Hollywood-Hot-Bodies!”
Celebrities such as Brad Pitt, J-Lo, and P. Diddy are just a few such
celebrities who ‘claim’ that weight training is their favorite way to
maintain their fabulous physiques.
Can you guess
what comedic actor, Steve Martins, favorite exercise routines consist of?
In-line skating! That’s right; the now 61 year old Mr. Martin regularly dons
a pair of skates to keep himself in shape. Although you might consider
in-line skating better suited to a much ‘younger’ crowd, Mr. Martin is so
comfortable and confident on his roller blades, that he often out-skates
those half his age. Other celebrities are also finding that in-line skating
is a fun way to stay in tip-top shape.
Some
celebrities find it hard to pick just one exercise as their “favorite” when
it comes to the exercise routines they enjoy engaging in the most. These
celebrities often like to ‘switch’ things up a bit by choosing several
different exercise routines a week to work different parts of their bodies,
and to also keep from getting ‘bored’ by doing the same exercise routines
time after time.
There are of
course about a “Zillion” exercise routines either endorsed by or created by
celebrities and made available on DVD and video. When you ask these
celebrities which exercise routines are their favorites-it isn’t surprising
for them to choose whichever workout video or DVD bears their ‘likeness’ or
‘testimonial.’
Celebrities
have to keep themselves quite fit as the cameras are always ‘aimed’ on them
it seems, and they know that people want to see celebrities that are trim
and sexy. The exercise routines that are a favorite among celebrities have
one common thread-they all need to be performed on a regular basis in order
to achieve a toned, sexy body and to gain any health benefits from them.
