How does Julia Roberts do it? The actress appears to be aging in reverse, looking better with every year that passes. Not only does she have an enviably toned physique, the superstar is honest about the hard work and discipline it takes to look the way she does. So how exactly does she do it? Here’s how Roberts takes care of her health and appearance, and what she does to be in the best shape of her life.
1. Healthy Breakfast

Roberts enjoys sourdough toast, eggs, avocado, and blueberries for breakfast. “Prolonged fermentation of sourdough contributes to a significant nutritional and taste transformation,” says Dr. George Place, North Carolina State University. “It makes bread not only tasty but also increases the bioavailability of most vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants of the flour.”
2. Aerobics and Body Work

Roberts got back into shape after filming 2010 hit movie Eat Pray Love with the help of personal trainer Kathy Kaehler. "Eat Pray Love took her all over the world but when she got back [to California] I helped her get ready for the press tour," according to Kaehler. "We currently do 20 to 40 minutes of step aerobics and up to 40 minutes of body work—lunges, crunches, planks, push-ups—after."
3. Swimming and Running

Roberts likes to swim laps in her pool or go running as part of her workout routine. “Sometimes we'll listen to music or talk as we exercise, but a lot of the time the kids are watching cartoons in the room," according to Kaehler. "We adjust to the situation."
4. Mindful About Diet

Roberts is mindful about her food choices, and teaches her children the same. “I feel like if I knew all the things to do [in terms of exercise], I would probably look like I was put together with tape,” she says. “I would just go crazy. So I think, better just to remain calm, drink your water, get your sleep and be joyful. We definitely try to eat mindfully. As I always say to my kids, ‘You have to eat the good stuff to get the good stuff.'”
5. Sunblock Every Day

Roberts’ ageless complexion is helped by her dedication to sunblock. “On a regular day, I’ll just brush my teeth, wash my face, and apply sunblock,” she says. “I’m a busy mom, and sometimes I just sunblock my kids and run outside and get my nose burned. So I’ve made a stronger effort to take care of myself.”
6. Gluten-Free Diet

Roberts enjoys a gluten-free diet and organic food whenever possible (although she acknowledges this is not easy for most people). “I’m mainly gluten-free,” she says. “I just try to eat well and be conscious. I go for organic. It’s kind of a bummer that we live in a country where eating healthy food is a luxury.”
7. Skincare Maven

Roberts is passionate about taking care of her skin, especially on flights. “Before I get on an airplane I pile up on the skincare products," she says. "You couldn’t hug me because I would just slip right away from you."

Kate Winslet has been the poster child for strong, curvy women since bursting into superstardom with her role in the 1997 blockbuster movie Titanic. Winslet, 47, has a down-to-earth approach to health and wellness that focuses on energy, happiness, and real beauty. So how exactly does she stay so strong and maintain her physique? Here’s what her diet and exercise regimen looks like. 
1. Yoga and Cardio

Winslet enjoys a variety of workouts to help keep herself happy and healthy. “Power yoga class a couple of times a week, some barre, cardio, and we have a dog, so I love going on walks,” she says. “I drink lots and lots of water! I’m really trying to be healthy.”
2. At-Home Pilates
Dave Benett/Getty Images
Winslet likes working out in the peace and quiet of her home when possible. “I have a mat and little hand weights and I do a stomach thing and a bum thing. It’s very simple – you barely break into a sweat,” she says. “Here’s what’s so great about it: no one’s looking at you, no one’s telling you what to do or work harder or anything like that. I know it seems slightly tragic but it’s my way of exercising in a time-efficient way.”
3. Lots of Juicing

Winslet drinks plenty of green juice she makes at home from fresh vegetables. “Our fridge is always full of spinach, kale, cucumbers,” she says. “I’m vegetarian and my husband is vegan, so there’s a lot of plant-based focus in our home. My husband turning vegan is relatively recent, so that’s been a really fun education because you have to learn to be a little more inventive with foods.”
4. Her Beauty and Wellness Mantra

Winslet believes in the power of good habits to ensure optimum wellness. “Beauty in your 40s is about depth and experience. And good habits,” she says. “Drink lots of water. Get outdoors as much as you can. Also, I exercise a lot and that makes an enormous difference in terms of endorphins and skin health.”
5. Portion Control

Winslet refuses to diet, but is sensible about indulging in treats. “When it comes to dieting, I just don't care,” she says. “I watch myself as much as any average woman does, you know? I'll eat one cookie, not a whole box of cookies. But I'll still eat the one cookie...sometimes two, or even three. But not the whole box.”
6. No Scales, Ever

Winslet refuses to weigh herself, instead focusing on overall health. The actress relies on a healthy diet and regular exercise to look and feel good. “I don’t know how much I weigh, I haven’t weighed myself in 12 years,” she says. “Top tip: it’s a great move.”
7. Health For Beauty

Winslet knows that exercise and diet make a huge impact on appearance. “These days, I’m a little more health-conscious in terms of thinking about the next 10 years of my life,” she says. “[I] want to maximize my physical strength and keep my skin good without doing anything to my face. I do believe that beauty and wellness really reflects in your face, in your eyes, and how you feel. It goes hand in hand with elegance as well. I think a woman that looks well and confident is innately elegant.”

Diane Keaton is 77 and thriving. The iconic actress beloved for her roles in Annie Hall, The Godfather and many more is still working out, staying fit, and focusing on how to make her life better. "I've had a lot of independence, and nobody's telling me what to do," she says. "I had a mother who encouraged that and helped me achieve the things I wanted to achieve. I've followed the paths I've wanted to follow. I like redoing houses, I like architecture, I like visuals, I like fashion, I like all of it." Here are 7 ways Keaton takes care of her body and her mind. 
1. Spin Classes

Keaton takes spin classes, and admits they can be challenging. “It’s rough,” she says. “But at least I’m there. I’m sweating. I think the key here is that you don’t have to be like everybody else. Just do it. Do it the best you can do it. I know in spin class that for 45 minutes, I’m using my body to its fullest. And that’s big.”
2. Plant-Based Diet

Keaton follows a mostly plant-based diet. “I don’t eat meat, I’m a vegetarian and I’ve been a vegetarian for 25 years and I’ve stopped even eating fish,” she says. “I stopped five years ago. I don’t want to eat something that was an animal. It’s nuts. I think I eat pretty good, I drink red wine, I want to stay healthy, I want to stay active, I want to work, I want to keep in the world of the world, I want to participate, be a member.”
3. Treadmill and Walking

Keaton makes sure to get her cardio in whenever possible by what she calls “fast walking”.  “I exercise,” she says. “I get on the treadmill by myself at home. I walk all the time, I walk my dog, I do all that.” But she doesn’t run. “I’ll walk really fast to break a sweat,” she says. “One thing is for sure – I don’t run. It’s too hard. But the fast walking does give me a lot of energy to face the day.”
4. Healthy Snacks

Keaton doesn’t eat meat. “I’m a vegetarian now. I don’t eat meat or fish. I eat eggs and cheese,” she says. “And I do watch what I eat.” Her favorite snacks? “I enjoy a raisin,” she says. “Raisins are good for you and they smell great. [Almonds are my] favorite nut in the world. It’s salty and there’s nothing like it. I don’t like [walnuts] as much, but it’s probably healthier for you.
5. Black Coffee and Supplements Every Day
Shuttterstock
Keaton enjoys black coffee every day before taking plenty of supplements. “I get up early, around 6 a.m,” she says. “And then in the remarkable, wonderful mess of life, I go and get coffee. Plain old black coffee. I take the dog, who sleeps with me on top of my bed—she’s a golden retriever and her name is Reggie and she takes up a good portion of the bed—on a walk in the darkness. We walk around the neighborhood; we really enjoy that.”
6. Healthy Habits vs Cosmetic Surgery
Rodin Eckenroth/WireImage
Keaton believes healthy habits are more effective than cosmetic surgery. “Of course I’m going to do the best I can. Given the circumstances. I exercise — I really enjoy my treadmill,” she says. “My hair is now white. It’s better to have light around your face — I think it looks better on older people. Darker hair is not as softening… My feeling is that [with cosmetic surgery] everybody has their hands and their hands are always at the face, so if the hands don’t match the face it’s a little weird. My hands are the hands of the age I am. They’ve been through a lot and they look like it!”
7. Embracing Her Looks
Frazer Harrison/Getty Images
Keaton has learned to appreciate her looks over the years. “The other day I was looking at trees, and all my life I’ve said I never like sycamores. Well, guess what, I love sycamores now. I love looking at them! All these things are reawakened by the fact that the more you change, the more you see differently,” she says. “And the more you see differently, the more you’re open to different kinds of beauty. I think the more we embrace what our own feelings about beauty are, the more fun it’s going to be for us as we go along.”

50 is the new 30 – in Hollywood at least. These celebrities have been in the public eye for decades, but somehow manage to majorly delay the aging process. From taking care of their skin and undergoing the latest treatments to remaining dedicated to healthy eating and exercise, we have compiled the longevity secrets of some of the most high-profile stars who look sensational in their 50s.
1. Bethenny Frankel: She Doesn’t Diet

Bethenny Frankel, 52, has one big dietary secret – she doesn’t diet. "I’m old enough to know that fat-free was a craze, low-carb, eat your weight in meat and cheese was a phase, keto is a fad, the Zone was a moment, and so on .... so yes, I eat carbs. I eat everything, but I don’t binge," the Real Housewives star dished to Good Housekeeping. "What I eat has no consistency. Today, it was an egg white vegetable omelet with a baked potato and a few french fries for lunch. Sometimes, it's arugula with tomato, avocado, and Parmesan. Pureed soups are a mainstay for me."
2. Jennifer Lopez: No Alcohol, Healthy Diet, and “Harder and Smarter” Workouts

"I'm in the best shape of my life," Jennifer Lopez, 53, told InStyle in 2021. The star attributes her ageless beauty to a healthy diet, lots of water, and zero alcohol. She has also been extremely devoted to exercise. "In my 20s and 30s I used to work out but not like I do now," she revealed. "It's not that I work out more; I just work out harder and smarter. And it doesn't take me as long as it did in the past. I do it more for my health than I do for looks, which is funny. When you do things for the right reasons, you actually look better!"
3. Paulina Porizkova: Gracefully Aging with Daily Exercise

Supermodel Paulina Porizkova, 58, believes in aging gracefully. And while she didn’t start exercising until she was 40, she now works out almost daily. “I try to exercise at least 3-5 days a week. And you know what? I ... hate it,” she said in one of her workout videos. “I don’t like to sweat and huff and puff and hurt. If sitting on a couch, eating cake, drinking wine and reading did the same for me as exercise, there would be no contest. BUT. I have come to find out that ‘working out’ is that perfect little pill everyone is looking for. It makes you feel good, look good, good for your brain and body - a small miracle that has to be paid of by a little discomfort.” Her favorite workouts include dancing, rowing, and pilates. 
4. Kelly Ripa: “I Work Out Seven Days a Week”

Kelly Ripa, 52, never skips a workout "I work out seven days a week," she told In the Know. "And I try to workout an hour and a half a day, no matter what — whether I'm working or not. If I'm working, maybe I'll start it a little bit later or a little bit earlier, depending on what day of the week it is. But I am very religious about my fitness." She also avoids alcohol and maintains a super clean alkaline diet. 
5. Jennifer Aniston: She Switches Up Her Workouts
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Jennifer Aniston, 54, recently revealed to Bustle that she toned down her super-aggressive “feel the burn” approach to exercise. “I work out about three to four times a week, which is basically all your body really needs. I’ll do Pvolve, and then to switch it up, sometimes I’ll do Pilates, or sometimes I’ll take a hike,” she said. She also focuses on recovery. I love an infrared sauna or an Epsom salt bath. Those are two really good for drawing that lactic acid out, and I’ll even use my hands or a little gua sha on my legs for the same purpose.”
6. Jennifer Garner: Daily Cardio Sessions

On Jennifer Garner’s 51st birthday earlier this year she appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show and revealed her secret to longevity. “What I do in the morning is I work out,” Garner said. “You’ve gotta do hard cardio to get that—to get yourself—I’m sorry, you do,” she said. “We need it in our bodies, but we need it in our brains. Your brain needs it!” she exclaimed. “You find something that actually makes you feel joyful while you’re doing it or it won’t work.”
7. Sofia Vergara

Sofia Vergara, 50, regularly jokes that she isn’t a fan of exercise. However, as she has gotten older she has incorporated weights into her routine. “The one thing that I have done that really has made a difference in my body is lifting weights. Not crazy weights. But, you know, like five pounds, seven pounds, 10 pounds. Twelve pounds is the maximum I can do. It keeps your muscles tight, and your skin tighter to you,” she explained to Health. “I’ve done Pilates and spinning, and I’ve tried all sorts of things—and they’re great.”

Jane Fonda is considered one of the top diet and fitness gurus in the world. For decades the actress and workout video queen has maintained a fit and healthy figure, and at 85, is still looking sensational in her swimsuit. Over the years she has let a few of her top secrets and weight loss tricks slip out. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 7 of Jane Fonda’s top weight loss tricks for staying in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!
1. Avoid Fad Diets

In a 2012 video for BeFiT, Fonda revealed that diets are not, in fact, the key to weight loss. "Most diets focus on weight loss on the scale, and they impose temporary and often unhealthy restrictive behavior," she said. "Unfortunately, this scenario sets us up to fail." She cited research stating that 80% of dieters “will regain all or most of the weight that they lost within two years.” This is why drastic diets are not part of her approach. “Fad diets are the ones promising unrealistic results. You should not try to lose more than two to three pounds per week, max," she said. 
2. Always Eat Breakfast

You won’t find Fonda on any intermittent fasting plans. "Every morning, commit to starting the day with a nutritious breakfast. People who do so tend to lose weight," she said in the video. "Breakfast, by the way, is the most important meal of the day, and making a good choice there will set you up for success for the rest of the day."
3. Indulge on Occasion
Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic
Fonda says, allow yourself to indulge on occasion. "You don't want to feel deprived," she points out in the video. "You can't sustain that over the long haul. So, if you have a piece of chocolate, it's OK—just don't eat the whole box, or maybe take a longer walk tomorrow."
4. Eat As Plant-Based As Possible

Fonda eats a healthy, clean diet that is as plant-based as possible. "I eat a fairly healthy diet. I'm not rigid," she dished to Vogue. "I have cut way back on red meat. I've cut back on fish because fish supplies are dwindling. I eat vegetables. I eat salads. I eat fresh food. I'm just careful about what I eat. I don't eat a lot of sugar, except lately I have."
5. When You Overeat, Exercise More

When Fonda does indulge in "unhealthy" food she will exercise more. "I was in Italy for two and a half months making the sequel to Book Club, and ate gelato and pasta every single day while I was there," she told Vogue. "But I never gained weight. I would get up at six in the morning before the heat hit and walk for an hour, hour and a half, two hours on days when the work permitted me to do that. I walk a lot, and that helps me."
6. Just “Keep Moving”

Fonda encourages movement. "I have to keep moving, because when you get older, it's more critical than when you're young. You have to keep your body moving," she told Well + Good. "For me, if I don't, not only does my body begin to deteriorate, but so does my mind, and I know that I need those endorphins."
7. Do Cardio and Resistance TRraining

Mix up your workouts, says Fonda. "It's important to do both cardio (aerobic) as well as resistance exercises. Aerobic activity is the only thing that gets rid of fat from all over your body including the marbled fat deep inside your muscles — dieting alone can't do this," Fonda wrote in a blog post.

Sophie Piper is embracing island life – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the Love Island beauty shows off her fantastic figure in a swimsuit during a tropical vacation at Kandima Maldives with Josh Ritchie. “Island life,” she captioned the series of Instagram snaps taken at the picturesque resort. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Sophie claims she hasn’t gone under the knife. “It’s your own body, you can do what you want to,” she told Grazia, weighing in on the show’s reputation for girls getting work done. “I wouldn’t have surgery myself; I don’t want it. I’ve got such a low pain tolerance as well; I’d be squirming around.”

Sophie loves paddle boarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and cardio. Water sports can burn an average of 385 calories for a 140-pound male and 436 calories for a female of the same size, per a study conducted by Arizona State University.

When Sophie hits the mountains, she throws on a pair of skis. “Ski club,” she captioned a photo. Research has linked downhill skiing to several health benefits. In addition to promoting physical fitness, it may decrease the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Studies have also found that the more frequently a person skis, the prevalence of known hypercholesterolemia, systemic hypertension, diabetes, the frequency of mental stress, and the occurrence of memory deficits decline. 

            
                She Loves Group Fitness

On her recent Maldives vacation, Sophie and Josh snorkeled in the crystal clear water. Surprisingly, putting on a snorkel and fins and swimming through the water is a great workout. In addition to being a great aerobic exercise and burning calories, other health benefits may include improved cardiovascular function, stress reduction, mood enhancement, and muscular toning.

Tammy Hembrow is a fitness influencer and expert. She has her own app, called Tammy Fit. Hembrow has a lot of challenges on her app. Recently, she advertised a challenge with a workout video on Instagram. Hembrow captioned the post, “We are 3 days into our first @tammyfitapp challenge of the year & I am more motivated than everrrrr. (Sign ups are still open if you haven’t joined yet - there’s still time to catch up!! - link in bio). Soooo happy seeing so many of my girlies (and guys) in this challenge doing it with me!! And I CANNOT wait to see everyone’s results at the end of the 8 weeks. We got thissss 💪🏼”

            
                She Does Pulldowns

Hembrow is seen doing pulldowns in her Instagram video. Piedmont reports that pulldowns have a lot of benefits. “The lat pulldown is a fantastic exercise for strengthening the latissimus dorsi muscle, the broadest muscle in your back. This muscle promotes good posture and spinal stability. Form is crucial when performing a lat pulldown to prevent injury and reap the best results.”

            
                She Lifts Weights

Hembrow is seen doing a lot of exercises with weights in her Instagram video. ACE Fitness states that using weights to workout has a lot of benefits. “Strength training with heavy weights improves muscle definition. Muscle definition occurs as the result of muscles remaining in a state of semi-contraction and heavy strength training recruits the larger type II muscle fibers responsible for a muscle’s appearance.”

            
                She Tracks Her Meals

Hembrow likes to track her meals on her app. She talked about the benefits of this in the caption of this “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. “Make sure to take advantage of the calorie/macro tracking features in the @tammyfitapp during this challenge guys. It can be really helpful in reaching specific goals quicker. And it also can help educate you on your food choices when it comes to nutrition, ratios, hidden calories, overeating or under eating etc. honestly I’d recommend any beginner try it out just to get a good feel for how you’re fuelling your body!! I feel like when people think of ‘meal tracking’ it can be seen as something that seems restrictive or something only bodybuilders do. When in reality it can be such a helpful tool and you can learn things that will actually encourage long term habits 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

            
                She Loves Bananas

Hembrow is seen enjoying bananas in her “What I Eat In A Day” Instagram video. The Cleveland Clinic states that bananas have a lot of benefits. “A single medium-sized banana offers about 32 mg of the mineral magnesium, which fulfills around 8% to 10% of your daily magnesium requirement. Magnesium is involved in many processes in your body, including: Blood pressure. Blood sugar levels. Building proteins. Maintaining bone. Muscle function. Nerve function.”

            
                She Loves Cottage Cheese

Hembrow is seen enjoying her bananas with cottage cheese in the previous Instagram video. Cottage cheese is very healthy. UCLA Health reports, “Cottage cheese’s protein content and low calories make it an ideal food for weight management. Research shows that whether you are trying to lose weight or reduce your risk of overweight or obesity, eating a high-protein diet can help you feel full and satisfied for longer.”

It’s hard to believe that Jennifer Aniston is 55 and turning 56 in February! Since soaring to fame in 1994, the Friends star has hardly aged in the three decades that have passed – and she has never been secretive about her devotion to health and wellness. Her hard work over the years has paid off through her strong and lean body and ageless looks. Here is everything you need to know about Jennifer Aniston’s approach to longevity. 

            
                She Maintains a High Protein Diet

"My nutrition is very much the same. It's usually a lot of high protein, vegetables, salads, soups,” she tells People. “I do 80/20. I give myself days where I can have whatever I want. I don’t deprive myself,” she added to TODAY. Why should you consider amping up your protein intake? According to clinical trials, consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW) but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.

            
                She Cheats on Occasion

Jennifer allows herself to indulge in “everything I would possibly want on a weekend,” she told People. Her cheat meal “depends,” she says. “I mean, dare I sound repetitive, but Mexican food is a real favorite of mine. It's not even that much of a cheat, to be honest. Or a cheeseburger or pizza or pasta — all that stuff.”

“My bigger challenge is sleep. I think that’s all part of our nutritional hygiene — the amount of water we get as well as the amount of sleep we get. It’s the combination of all of those things that make your workouts the most effective," she told TODAY.

“I’ve become gentler with myself,” she says of her approach to fitness, which has “definitely evolved” over the years. “I find that I can be gentler on my body and still get the benefits of a great workout,” she told Prevention. She specifically loves P.Volve workouts, a functional fitness that helps you “function throughout the day” and “work out your essential muscle groups to keep your body strong,” she says. “So you can live a long, healthy, strong life.”

            
                She Hydrates

Aniston prioritizes hydration, drinking a whopping 100 ounces of water per day. "But occasionally I just have to have a Diet Coke—there's nothing like it!" According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is essential for various reasons. Water helps eliminate waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature regular, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.

            
                She Does Pilates, Spinning, Elliptical, and Running Workouts

“I had an injury last fall and I was only able to do Pilates, which I absolutely love. But I was missing that kind of sweat when you just go for it,” she recently told InStyle. “I'm going back to my 15-15-15, which is a 15-minute spin, elliptical, run. And then just old school: I can chase myself around a gym. I need some kind of movement, even if it's just 10 minutes a day on a trampoline.”
