1. She Treats Herself To Workout Gear

Brewster revealed her secrets for staying motivated to New Beauty. She says that gear helps her want to work out. “If you like the outdoors, don’t force yourself to go to the gym. Instead, buy a pedometer and go on a hike. Buy cute gym outfits every once in a while to stay motivated. I love to go to Nike and treat myself to the latest running gear.

2. She Does Intervals On The Treadmill

When most people think of interval training, most people think of doing different exercises without equipment. However, Brewster tells New Beauty that she does intervals on a treadmill. “I work out five days a week. I like interval training on the treadmill—side shuffles, walking at a fast pace on an incline and running.

3. She Strength Trains

Brewster also loves to do strength training exercises. She tells New Beauty that she likes to do them with her personal trainer. “I also do strength training three times a week with my trainer Harley Pasternak.” “Two or three 20- or 30-minute strength training sessions every week can result in significant health benefits:

1. Increased muscle mass: Muscle mass naturally decreases with age, but strength training can help reverse the trend.
2. Stronger bones: Strength training increases bone density and reduces the risk of fractures.
3. Joint flexibility: Strength training helps joints stay flexible and can reduce the symptoms of arthritis.
4. Weight control: As you gain muscle, your body begins to burn calories more easily, making it easier to control your weight.
5. Balance: Strengthening exercises can increase flexibility and balance as people age, reducing falls and injuries,” says the American Cancer Society.

4. She Practices Meditation

Brewster is open about her love of practicing meditation. She loves to do Vedic meditation in particular. She tells New Beauty that this has helped her slow down and improve her mental state. “I’ve also noticed the benefits and necessity of slowing down and learned Vedic meditation.”

5. She Believes In Balance

For Brewster, wellness means balance. She tells Health that she has a history of obsessing over her body, so balance helps her maintain this. “So it’s about checking in and making sure you’re living as balanced a life as possible,” she said. “It is all about balance and feeling comfortable in your skin.”

Jordana has suffered from disordered eating.

"The first year of our marriage, I started to binge and developed an eating disorder," she wrote. "(Form) was kind and safe and supported me. I knew something was wrong with me."

4. She Works Out Early

Jordana gets her workouts over as early as possible. “I get up at, like, 5:15 a.m. every morning to run. I like treadmills—it hurts my knees too much to run outside. [My mom] is still a member at [a gym]. She’s in her mid-60s, and she works out. So I really got that from her, and I still defer to her,” she told Health.

5. Her Diet Is Clean

Jordana maintains a clean diet, focusing on whole foods. “I try to eat as natural as possible, and I try to eat organic,” she told Hollywood Life. “I also try to avoid processed food.” Another things she tries to stay away from? Sugar.

1. Here’s Her Take on Inner-Beauty

2. This is Her Training Regimen

“I’m very old-school when it comes to the gym. I have a treadmill and a little gym at home, so I like to get up early and work out. I’ll do cardio six days a week, and I really like weight training and boxing…it’s a great way to get all your stress out. I actually like it when my muscles ache and when I’m sore,” she told Men’s Fitness. “I’ve also been working with trainer Harley Pasternak for more than a decade, and he’s given me a great program. I work two different muscle groups per day, even if it’s 15 minutes. I love doing deadlifts and squats. I’ll use a TRX for pullups and hamstring curls, and medicine balls for abs work. I like mixing it up.”

3. She Once Said This is Her Perfect Day of Eating

“For breakfast, four shots of espresso over ice from Starbucks, and a homemade healthy breakfast sandwich consisting of a Thomas English Muffin, a slice of turkey bacon, egg whites, tomato and avocado,” she once told the New Potato. “For lunch, the chopped salad from La Scala or a Barney’s Beach Body Salad (Grilled chicken, beets, avocado) with a side of curly fries. For dinner, Craig’s Tito’s vodka martini and chocolate pizza.”

4. Here’s How She Got Through Quarantine

“I’m very lucky in that I’ve been doing FaceTime workouts with my trainer, Harley [Pasternak]. I also go on hikes, which is really nice. I need to get steps in. I need to be outside and breathing fresh air. I’m so lucky that I live in L.A., where I can do that, because otherwise I would go absolutely stir-crazy,” she told Health.

5. Here’s Her Take on Turning 40

“I really do see it as I’m so grateful to be here. I’m so grateful. I have two boys, and I’m still working. Thank God most of the women I look up to—like Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Cate Blanchett—are over 40 and are still working and thriving. So I feel like the only way to go is up from here,” she told Health.

6. She Meditates

“I also like to do meditation and get myself outside for a workout—like hikes or going to the Santa Monica stairs. I think these days everyone’s so glued to their phone, and it’s so hard to be present and focused. Twice a day I practice vedic meditation [a type of meditation during which you take 20 minutes to focus on a specific mantra or sound—perfect for busy people], and it really helps me stay calm, have more patience with my kids, and be more present at work. It just gives me bandwidth. It allows me to recharge. It’s a necessity,” she told Men’s Journal.

I love hiking outdoors," she told Popsugar. “Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between,” says the National Parks Service. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

5. She Doesn’t Drink Smoothies or Juice

Jordana doesn’t drink her calories. "I hate smoothies, and I hate juices," she revealed to Health. "I like chewing. So I steam tons of vegetables and add avocado. And then I have soup with chicken or salmon for at least one of my meals. And then I'm getting all my vegetables in one meal, and I don't really have to worry about it after that. So it's about checking in and making sure you're living as balanced a life as possible."
