"Summer so far," she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 6 ways Reese Witherspoon stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
"In my 30s, I learned to accept my body for what it is. This is what looks good on it. It will never look good in that thing over there with all the fabric and the bows and the ruffles. It just won't," Reese told InStyle.
In an Instagram Reel, Reese revealed a few of her go-to health habits. One of them? Starting the day hydrated. "Start the day with a big glass of water," she wrote. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
Reese tries to eat healthy but doesn't go to extreme measures. "I don't believe in crash dieting or anything like that," Reese told Us Weekly.
Reese exercises a lot. "I work out all the time anyway just to stay healthy," she told Us Weekly. Her trainer, Michael George, told Shape that she does cardio for 30 minutes six times per week. Reese also revealed to Radio Times that she wakes up at 5:30 a.m. so she can work out by 7:30 a.m. "I probably do that six days a week," she said.
Reese gets a lot of sleep. "In bed by 10pm. *no late night TV binges," she says in her Instagram Reel. "Try to get 8 hours of rest!" The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reveal that a third of US adults report that they get less than the recommended amount of sleep—seven hours for adults per the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. "Not getting enough sleep is linked with many chronic diseases and conditions—such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and depression," the CDC explains.
"I just have a green juice and a coffee in the morning," Reese told Radio Times about her dedication to greens. She loves nutritionist Kim Snyder's Glowing Green Smoothie, which consists of spinach, romaine lettuce, celery, apple, pear, banana, and lemon juice. "I start every day with a Glowing Green Smoothie and so does my whole family!" she wrote in a testimonial on Snyder's website.
