Garth, 52, posted a video of herself wearing white pants and a black tank top, doing a strength-training workout at the gym. āHoliday Workout Hustle: The holidays can be tough on routines, but your dedication is tougher. One rep at a time. We got this! šŖā she captioned the post. Garth is thriving in her 50sāhereās how the actress prioritizes her health and wellness, and stays focused on her goals.
Morning Smoothie
Garth starts her day off with a healthy smoothie made using plant-based protein. āI try to set my day off on the right foot by telling myself everything is going to go the way I want it toāmapping that out in my brain, creating those pathways and telling myself today is going to be a great day,ā she told EatingWell. āThen, I get up and I make a really action-packed smoothie full of nutrients. You have to put in a frozen banana. I usually use half a banana, frozen orange, frozen mango, then a ginormous handful of fresh spinach. Then, MCT oil, flaxseed oil, two dates, a whole lemon with the rind and everything. Just throw that right in there. Add ice, Planet Oat milk, bee pollen and an unflavored plant-based protein. Oh, and a chunk of ginger!ā
Heart Healthy Diet
Garth says diet is the most important thing for a healthy heart. āI focus on that, in addition to exercise,ā she told EatingWell. āAnd I always encourage people who have heart disease in their genetics to find a cardiologist, have a conversation with them so you are proactive in taking care of yourself. If you don't take care of yourself, no one is going to, and I think that would be one of the great ways to start taking care of your heart.ā
Workouts and Me-Time

Garth prioritizes her workouts. āI work out three days a week. I carve out that time for myself, and I really honor that hour and don't ever change it,ā she told EatingWell. āI do that for overall physical wellbeing. Especially as you get older, you need to make sure your muscles are strong. I walk my dogs in the mountains a lot, and Iām always zooming around doing something. I play golf, also; youāre outside in nature, and itās just a really nice way to spend time.ā
Fitness Competitions
Garth is thinking about entering a fitness competition as her next goal. āI just want to improve my posture. I want to have my core strength so I donāt get lumpy,ā she told TODAY. āI live to the max, so I donāt want to slow down. I always say if youāre slower, youāre not growing. So, I donāt have any plan of slowing down.ā
Strength Training
Weight training is a key part of Garthās workout regimen under the guidance of personal trainer Jason Cohen, who has her do full-body workouts. āAs we age, we lose bone density, and for me, I want to keep my muscles strong,ā she told TODAY, adding that she "used to hate working out. But now I really do look forward to it because I know how good I feel after I do it. It does provide me with something that I really do need in my lifeā¦ I usually do like 12 to 15 reps a set.ā
