I love novelty workout pants. It means my workout kit is really bright and vibrant and out there.
I get up in the morning and do a seven-minute yoga workout. I know the most likely time I’m going to do something is when I first get up, and I make it short because, like you, I don’t really want to do that first thing in the morning.
I never wanted to have a workout where I was by myself. I always wanted to have somebody to compete against.
I’ve always been a fan of the home workout. I know a lot of people think that jumping around in your living room is never going to be as effective. But you can get an amazing workout using your bodyweight alone.
I’m a Type A person who doesn’t want to get stuck in any one type of workout. I need a variety of things to stay interested, and that way, you make sure you get the most out of yourself.
I shopped for body shapers for the first time in my life and I was horrified. They were thick – it was like wearing workout clothes and they all had a leg band on one side that showed through the pants.
My aim for my dancing and fitness is to achieve flexibility in those disciplines so I am spending time to make sure I stretch after each workout or dancing session I do to give me further strength and ability.
When I’m traveling, I always look for a dance studio. It’s a great workout and a wonderful way to meet new friends in the community.
I’m very interested in keeping my endurance up, my stamina up, I keep my rest periods short and I try to do as much compound movement as i can. Not isolation, but a lot of compound exercises, stuff designed to work the whole the body, to get the full body workout.
It’s very important to have the right clothing to exercise in. If you throw on an old T-shirt or sweats, it’s not inspiring for your workout.
I want to get better each and every day and attack each and every day. Whether that be a pool workout, a sand workout, an on the court workout, I’m just trying to get better in every situation.
When I started running, the pain barrier was very familiar to me, and I had no problem pushing beyond the pain. When for your whole life, every single workout, you are programmed to push beyond belief, it’s really hard to just turn that off and kind of just be a social competitor.
You need to be dedicated to your workout, whatever you choose.
I like to drink my juice immediately after a workout, because that’s the best time to have your sugars.
I eat a proper breakfast with green tea, boiled eggs and muesli or oatmeal after my 45-minute daily workout.
During the season, I usually work out two or three times a week. I’ll do a full-body workout after games. I plan it out the day of.
The most important tip is to find a workout that you love – one that you’re excited to go to. And do it with a group of friends. That’s one of the reasons I created Happy Hour. It’s effective, but it’s also really fun to dance together under a disco ball.
Stop being childish. Use your time better – better yourself. Read a book, or do a workout exercise on YouTube.
For me, workout is the way of life.
The standing yoga routines work all the main muscles of the body and improve stamina while increasing your metabolic rate, and there is a specific Yoga Abs workout to build all-important core strength to improve posture and trim the waistline.
I really like battle ropes. They’re so versatile; you can get a terrific workout doing a ton of different exercises with them. My clients like them because they’re a good way to get aggression out, too. Had a bad day? Take it out on the ropes!
Growing up together with my brothers and working out – knowing that they bring intensity to the workout and they really, truly believe in it – it’s awesome.
I exercise in the gym about three times a week. I vary the workout every time, but I’ll always do some type of circuit work with weights. It gets my heart rate up without putting too much stress on my knees, which for some reason seem to be older than the rest of my body.
Every morning I stand on my head and do a yoga workout.
I tell people, when I train, I don’t do a Hansel and Gretel workout. I don’t drop breadcrumbs. I saved nothing for the trip home.
One of my favorite things about traveling is experimenting with different workouts in different gyms. If I can’t get to a Gold’s Gym, and I’m stuck in a small hotel gym, and it’s only got a medicine ball and a treadmill, how am I going to make sure I get a decent workout from this environment? I love that challenge.
There is no quick easy way to the body you want… commit yourself now to your workout and get started.
Caffeine is hard on an empty system, so I try not to do it unless it’s to get my heart rate up. If you drink caffeine 15 minutes before the workout, it can make it more effective. So I’ll do tea or coffee after breakfast.
Find a workout that’s something you love to do.
When you’re comfortable in what you’re wearing, I think you get the most out of your workout.
When I’m home, I like to plan out all of my workout routines and all of my eating for the whole week.
I’d like to get into some sort of workout regimen so I can properly be healthy and exercise like a normal human being. I seem to not do that… ever.
I change the workout every month, so you never adapt and never plateau.
Yoga is my luxury workout. If I’m on vacation or I have a day off, I love a 90-minute yoga class. It’s a really strong workout, but it takes a little bit longer.
It doesn’t matter if you’re sad or hung-over or lazy or tired – a workout will get your endorphins pumping, and you’ll feel like a new person almost instantly.
I did, like, every workout class in New York.
I work out with Pilates – it’s a great workout for body alignment. I work out every day with once a week break. I mix it with weight training and cardio.
Skiing makes me feel great, and it gives my legs such an incredible workout.
When I go to teach, that’s not my workout. It’s my show. I’m 134 pounds – I’m a teeny thing. I work out 11/2 hours a day and eat 1,600 calories. I can’t stray because I have to fit into these Dolfin shorts!
I love giving myself and my clients gold stars every day that they’ve completed a workout – it feels really good.
Saying that you’re too busy, that there’s no time left for a workout is just an excuse – one must make time.
A HITT workout is basically three to four complexes and a complex is about three exercises that you can do about three to four times with no rest. Your heart rate is always up and you’re lifting weights.
It’s difficult to maintain the six-pack abs. They demand a specific workout and diet plan. Even professional bodybuilders sport six-pack abs on and off.
For my workout, I’m up at 4 A.M. I say my prayers, count my blessings, and I work out right away. I just get it done.

You should meditate, workout consistently and eat right.
As soon as I get time, I want to start to do some fight training. I tried a little boxing once with my personal trainer back in L.A. – it’s such a good workout, and it’s a good skill to have, especially in my industry, since sometimes you have to do stunts and fight scenes.
If you eliminate the junk food, you don’t really run the risk of gaining weight if you’ve got a good workout routine.
I live in California, so I do stand-up paddle board, which is a killer workout. I also run, about four miles every three days.
Just do some kind of workout. Doesn’t matter if it’s going for a walk around the block, going for a jog, doing some calisthenics, lifting weights, going to a pool and swimming – you name it. But do something that gets your blood flowing and gets your mind in the game.
Depending on the day, I might be catching a flight, going to show, but no matter what when I wake up I got to get a workout in.
Dance is a great way to stay fit; it improves postures and tones the body. It’s also a good cardio workout.
I do all core-based alignment training and strength training. If I don’t die at the end of 90 minutes, then it hasn’t been a good workout.
I love the convenience of a protein shake, and not just for after a workout.
Just like keeping a healthy diet is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating the right foods is just as important for getting the most out of your workout.
I workout for two to three hours a day, including stretches.
I’m from L.A., and we don’t usually get out of our workout clothes if we’re in them.
I feel so good after a workout. Any time you can be alone with yourself is really important.
I started working out, doing a formal workout right around 1980. That’s when I really decided I needed to get in shape and it may have been because you just start to see a decrease – a change in your body.
Eating well was something I learned as I started to be successful and had to travel and perform concerts, which are an intense cardio workout.
After my spacewalks, I am quite exhilarated but also tired, similar to a workout on Planet Earth.
