The Jennifer Aniston Guide to Looking Healthy and Fit

Recently a friend of mine trained Jennifer Aniston at a "not to be mentioned" swanky spa in LA.  He has trainer hundreds of well known celebrities, but was quite impressed with Aniston's commitment to health and fitness.  He said, "Even in person she was as beautiful as she appears in photos and in films, she didn't have that "hard" look that so many young female celebrities have."

I have always scrutinized the way celebrities look because they "have to look good" and they have the money to do so.  But, there is one thing money can't buy, health.  When you are healthy, you look healthy and I think Aniston is a perfect example. 

I think she is 40 (or almost 40) and definitely takes care of herself and has for a long time. She practices yoga and does cardiovascular training (I don't know if she lifts weights). She follows the Zone Diet and has for years.

I was talking with some clients yesterday who are frustrated with how slow and steady their progress is coming in my RESET boot camp.  They are losing about 1-2 pounds per week, and feeling better - but they want faster results.  I told them that when you have a few years of not taking care of yourself, it is going to take a few months to undo the damage.

Basically, if you want to be healthy you need to start being somewhat "anal" about what you are putting in your body and how often you are working out.  If you want to look like a fit and healthy person, then you need to start acting like one.  Drinking too much alcohol, eating processed foods, smoking, not drinking enough water and not getting enough sleep are not what "healthy people" do.  You can't miss your workouts if you want to look fit and healthy and it is a lot easier to maintain an ideal body fat percentage when you are eating clean and managing portion sizes on a daily basis.

Amen to this...just needed the reminder. I know that my choices put me in a place where my health wasn't a priority but it's time! And if she can live through all of her pain and still look great - so can I!
