Unlike most Hollywood stars, Catherine doesn't depend on a trainer to keep her in shape. "I don't have a trainer. Crazy, right? But I don't need anyone to motivate me," she told InStyle. "I love exercise, even things like the elliptical machine and stretching. It's a legacy of dancing all those years."

She Also Likes to Dance

Catherine loves to dance and incorporates it into her workouts. "I have a ballet barre in my gym," she told The Telegraph. "I turn the music up so loud that the walls are pulsating, and I go for it for an hour. I also hula-hoop, walk on the treadmill, do the elliptical [machine]. I try to keep the whole body working."

Catherine exercises "at least 45 minutes a day, seven days a week," she revealed to InStyle, and are as much inspired by her mental health as physical. "It really helps my mood too, which, with the bipolar thing, is important," she said. She also revealed to W that swimming, tennis, peloton, working out in her home gym and tap dancing are some of her other favorite workouts.

Catherine drinks a lot of water to maintain her PH balance and avoids alcohol, she explained to W. This, in addition to her healthy diet, helps keep her "body free of any inflammation inside and out." Cold press juice and Kombucha are also part of her hydration routine.
