Alison Brie In Workout Gear Celebrates Major Fitness Milestone

Alison Brie is celebrating a major milestone in her fitness journey. The Mad Men actress, 41, shared pictures of herself wearing black leggings and a gray sports bra, holding gold ‘100’ balloons that were presented to her as a surprise congratulations. “Celebrated 100 classes @formapilatesla with surprise balloons!! (and a killer ab and glute series🥵😛) Thanks for the time under tension, gals!” she captioned the post. Here’s what Brie’s health and wellness routine looks like in her 40s.

1. Working Out To Feel Good

Brie notices a difference in her mood when she doesn’t exercise. “On days that I work out, I feel good—I feel confident I feel strong and calm,” she told Well+Good. "On days that I don't work out I feel a little untethered and a little grouchy, so it's a real priority to me, no matter where I am. I've done workouts in my trailer at work when I had a 30 minute break. I just feel like, it's good to find that time. It's good for your health, and it's good for your mind.”

2. Rise Nation and Peloton

Brie likes doing Rise Nation and Peloton workouts in Los Angeles, and Devin Wiggins and Claire P. Thomas when she wants to do an at-home workout. "I seldom do the exact thing that they're doing,” she told Well+Good. “But I kind of look at it, and mix and match those with a running list that I already keep in my phone of certain exercises that I can do on my own.”

3. Glow Training

Training for her role as Ruth Wilder in GLOW took Brie’s fitness to another level. "I have never considered myself an athletic person until I started working on GLOW. We do a month of wrestling training before shooting every season of GLOW," she told ET. "That's all of the women in the ring. Three hours a day, five days a week. And that was also incredibly empowering. Learning that your body is capable of so much more than you ever expected is pretty life-changing for me."

4. Food Is Not the Enemy

Brie changed her approach to fitness, now focusing on being strong and healthy over being as small as possible. “More than anything, I think, [with] my trainers, we honed in on healthy eating and not considering food the enemy,” she told ET. “ So it's much better for me to do something, have a lifestyle where I live in a healthy way and I work out in a way that makes me feel strong and powerful and I eat food. But I eat healthy food and sometimes I eat unhealthy food and it's fine."

5. Self-Care Routine

Brie uses Epsom salts and CBD to relax. "For muscle recovery, Epsom salts and CBD are a big part of my routine," she told Well+Good. "My husband [actor Dave Franco] and I usually will take a lazy Sunday. We're very serious about our lazy Sundays—the goal is to not leave the house at all. We do next to nothing."

Jana Kramer turned 38 earlier this month, enjoying a belated birthday celebration over the weekend in Florida. Yesterday, the former One Tree Hill star shared some photos from it, flaunting her super fit figure. "Taking a minute to reflect on the last few days of peace and chasing joy….

How does the actress and country singer keep herself so fit?

In a recent Instagram the mother-of-two explains that she doesn’t show off her body for attention, but is simply proud of her transformation. “Because when I look at this photo, I see strength. If I’m honest, I lost a little too much weight after my divorce, and I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the number I saw. But that’s an unhealthy way to look at it. It should never be about the number. It should be about how you feel,” she wrote. “I have been actively becoming strong again for me. I look at this pic now and I’m proud of myself for the hard work and commitment to loving myself. This body made two beautiful humans. I’m proud of my body. And it’s not just because I have new boobs, though yes they are two perks :) and since my breast augmentation I have felt more empowered about my decision. I’m proud that I have made choices for me. And I want to encourage you to do what makes you happy too… move the way you want to move… show off what you are proud of… feel your strength. And be proud of YOU, no matter what shape or size you are.”

2. She Trains with Erin Oprea

Jana is also a huge fan of running, after Oprea suggested she partake in the calorie-blasting cardio workout. “I hated running and now I love it,” she confessed. “It’s helped me lean out.”

4. Moderation Is Key

“I personally think everything in moderation,” Jana has said about her approach to diet. “I had a chocolate chip cookie last night. I will eat another one tonight. I don’t think you should deprive yourself of anything. I think, eat when you are hungry. But all-around diet is how I do it.”

5. She Works Out for the Mental Health Benefits As Well

In an Instagram story earlier this year, Jana explained that she works out even when she doesn’t feel like it because it ultimately makes her feel better. “Still not feeling 100 percent,” she explained. “But I'm still going to run it out, sweat it out." She previously explained to Us Weekly that exercise helps her keep sane. “Working out for me is my sanity…Even just going for a walk, that is a place where I come back and I'm like, 'I feel good, I feel balanced. Working out is 100% how I stay level."

Some of her go-to stretches include cat-cow, toe sitting, and cobra pose.

3. Her Workouts Are Seriously Hardcore

Brie doesn’t mess around when it comes to exercise. Her workouts with Walsh are seriously intense, involving lots of weights, one-armed pull-ups, and even pushing a 5,000 pound Jeep down the street. “Pushing myself past my limit, honey! Doesn’t always look pretty but gosh it feels amazing,” she wrote in one of her post, asking her trainer, “how heavy were these again?”

4. She Allows Herself to Cheat

Clearly, Brie eats healthy most of the time, but isn’t afraid to indulge in her favorite treats on occasion. “Ice cream, anyone?” she captioned this photo of herself holding a cone.

5. She Focuses On the “Fun” of Fitness

6. She’s All About Self-Care

Brie makes sure to prioritize self-care. “Sauna, massage, nature - does it get better?” she captioned a photo of herself during a wellness getaway at Wilderness Reserve.

Kira— you are a genius.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Candace Cameron Bure stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Prioritizes Exercise

Bure tells The Salvation Army that she makes working out a priority in her life. "Just sweating that out and all those endorphins really help me a lot. I notice a huge difference when I don’t exercise, how much it can affect me mentally and kind of deal with depression. That's why I keep going. There are a lot of benefits I get. My mind is most important, and exercise definitely helps that."

2. She Jumps Rope

Bure likes to jump rope. She shared this video on Instagram of herself doing it, captioning it, “First, whips hurt. Second, this is the first time doing 12 double-unders in a row. Whoo Hoo! Does a jump in between still make it count? Just say YES 👍🏼! I’m learning 😜. #jumprope - P.S. some people have said my rope is too long, however I ordered a rope for exactly my height. When I stand on it, it comes just underneath my armpit- which is where it should land. Still think it’s too long?”

3. She Does Push-Ups

Bure shared some of her favorite exercises with Parade. She says that there’s one exercise that she goe to a lot. "I swear by push-ups,” Bure revealed. “Wide grip, tricep, dolphin, inclined, declined, you name it. My arms, shoulders, and back have really changed from constantly doing them.”

4. She Eats Healthy

Bure makes sure to eat healthy. She opened up about her diet in an interview with People. “I eat a very plant and grain-based diet,” she said. “I follow a more Mediterranean diet, so I eat lots of fresh vegetables and whole grains and fish. I don’t eat dairy very often, and I’ve cut most of the sugar out of my diet — I see the biggest effect from not eating as much sugar.”

5. She Works With A Trainer

As you can see from her post, Bure works with a trainer. According to ACE Fitness, training has a lot of benefits. “Working with a trainer allows you to become confident with how to perform exercises, use machines and navigate the facility. After a few sessions, you will feel ready to tackle the weight room on your own. Even better, an ego boost during exercise can promote stronger self-confidence and self-efficacy, which can help you stick with your exercise program over the long term.”
