Reese Witherspoon has been in the public eye since she made her acting debut in 1991 in The Man in the Moon, a coming-of-age drama that was critically acclaimed, and earned accolades for the actress. And while she's obviously aged up from kid parts into adult roles, most recently in The Morning Show opposite Jennifer Aniston, the Oscar winner has always looked fantastic. CelebWell spoke with experts who break down her health routine and explain why it works. Read on to see 5 ways Reese Witherspoon stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.


1. She Eats Whole Foods

28th Screen Actors Guild Awards - Red CarpetDimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images

In several interviews throughout the years, Witherspoon has revealed what she typically eats and she includes plenty of whole foods in her diet like grilled chicken, lentils and kale salads. Dr. Jinan Banna, PhD, RD., a registered dietitian and professor of nutrition, says, "One of the ways whole foods help you lose weight is by providing fiber. Fiber is found in foods like fruit, vegetables, whole grains and beans. It helps you stay full and prevents overeating. You should incorporate whole foods like apples, asparagus, whole wheat bread, and black beans. These are just a few examples."

2. Has Cheat Days

While the 45-year-old does normally eat clean and healthy, she does allow exceptions for her favorites like spicy fried chicken every now and then, Hello! reports. Banna explains, "Rather than saying it's ok to have a cheat day, I would say it is just fine to include foods like desserts or salty snacks. Changes that are too drastic might not help you to change your lifestyle in a way that works for you. Start by looking at your current habits and foods you like and focus on making sure you can still eat what makes you happy and also keeps you healthy. This will ensure that you can sustain your diet."

3. She Eats Plenty of Fresh Veggies

According to Hello!, The Morning Show star eats lots of veggies with dinner. Reda Elmardi, a Registered Dietician, certified nutritionist, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist Trainer, and owner of thegymgoat.com says, "Vegetables are a great way to get your daily dose of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, and other nutrients that can keep you feeling full and satisfied while helping you maintain a healthy weight. Here's how eating vegetables every day can benefit your health:

  • Eating fruits and vegetables helps you feel fuller longer, making it easier to eat fewer calories throughout the day.
  • Vegetables contain loads of water and fiber, keeping you hydrated and regular.
  • They're loaded with vitamins and minerals like vitamin A, C, K, B6, folate, iron, magnesium, manganese, niacin, pantothenic acid, riboflavin, thiamine, zinc, and many others.
  • Antioxidants in vegetables protect against cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic diseases."

4. She Does Yoga

Celebrity yoga instructor Kirschen Katz told POPSUGAR, the A-lister does 30 minutes of yoga before a big award show. According to Matt Gehlbach, a certified ISSA and NASM personal trainer with Garagegymfit.org, "Yoga is a great thing to include in your workout routine because it helps you to connect your body and mind, and it teaches you how to breathe deeply. When you're working out, it's important to focus on your body and what it's doing. Yoga can help you do that by teaching you how to control your breathing and connect your mind with your body. This type of connection can help you stay focused during workouts, prevent injuries, and increase strength and flexibility. Additionally, yoga can help improve your overall balance and coordination. There are many ways that yoga helps someone to tone up and stay in shape. First, yoga is a great form of cardio exercise. It gets the heart rate up and helps to burn calories. Second, yoga is a form of strength training. It works the muscles in the body and can help to create lean, toned muscles. Third, yoga is a great way to stretch and lengthen the muscles. This can help improve flexibility and prevent injuries. And finally, yoga is a mind-body exercise that can help to reduce stress and anxiety. All of these factors together can help someone to stay healthy and toned both physically and mentally."

5. She Loves Running

Kirschen also revealed to POPSUGAR that the star loves to run 3-5 miles and Dr. Thomas Wollschlager, MD, Co-Founder of Meduni.com, and a Certified Personal Trainer says, "Due to the great number of many different muscles involved when doing it, running is the best exercise for people looking to lose weight or stay fit as it burns much more calories than any other physical activity, even more than cycling and weightlifting. Although the number of calories you burn will highly depend on factors such as your weight as well as the speed and overall time you spend running, on average, a person can burn from 80 to 140 calories per mile, which means they could burn between 280 and 520 calories in a 30 minutes run. In order to see better and faster results, it's recommended to run at least three times a week (preferably four or five) for 30-45 minutes."

Bianca Bustamante is revving up her engine in 2025 – in her workout gear. In a new social media post, the racecar driver reveals she is taking “the next major step” in her physical journey as a race driver “and I’ve set the target high!” she says in a new Instagram post, filled with video clips of herself lifting heavy weights at the gym. “Never been more motivated in my life, it’s not physically easy for a girl in this sport, but I’m super excited to take on this new challenge and the next big step on my racing journey,” she added. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here are her top lifestyle tips.

Lifting Weights

Bianca spends hours at the gym where she focuses on strength training along with endurance, cardio, reaction time, and reflexes. “You know, to be a driver, it’s a complete package. It takes strength. It takes mental fortitude. It takes reflexes, smart thinking, and survival skills,” she told MEGA Active. “Sometimes it's for the body, sometimes it's for the mind. Nothing more peaceful than early sessions,” she captioned an Instagram post of one of her sessions.

Double Down On Training

In her recent post, Bianca reveals that she working extra hard at the gym. “I’ve been working hard over the years to build a solid foundation, but in 2025, I’ll be working with @j_w_90 and I’m doubling down on my training. Increasing to two workouts a day not just on lifts but aerobic endurance, as well as a better focus on nutrition and rest, in order to raise the bar to compete in the higher formulas,” she said.

Fueling Your Body With Protein

Bianca makes sure to eat enough protein in order to build more muscle and stay as lean as possible to meet the weight requirement. “It’s been a really cool journey seeing my body develop and transform into this whole different person I never knew I could become,” she said. In her new post she added that she is meal prepping. “I’m soooo all in that im even learning how to cook & meal prep better than ever before,” she writes.

Taking Cold Plunges

As for recovery, cold plunging is part of Bianca’s training regime. Limited research supports the benefits of cold plunges, which may include easing sore muscles, bringing body temperature down, increasing focus, improving sleep, and decreasing inflammation, per the Cleveland Clinic. However, a 2021 study found that cold water immersion therapy promotes post-sport recovery.

Working On Self-Esteem

Positive self-talk is also important. “Of course, I put a lot of pressure on myself, but in the end, I always tell myself that as long as I give my best and I learn from it, any mistake I make is valid,” Bianca explained. “I always try to repeat that to myself that I am valid. I’m here for a reason and there’s nothing I would rather do than be here.”

How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Jogging

Brenda enjoys jogging. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

She also takes her dog on long walks. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day reduced the risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia, and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.

Dancing

You can also find Brenda dancing to burn calories. Dancing is an excellent workout for many reasons. It builds strength and promotes flexibility, helps you lose weight, and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop or die from heart disease than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues

Swimming

Brenda spends a lot of time in her swimsuit so it isn’t surprising she loves to swim. According to the CDC, swimming is a good way to get regular aerobic physical activity. Just two and a half hours per week of aerobic physical activity, such as swimming, bicycling, or running, can decrease the risk of chronic illnesses. In addition to the many physical benefits, multiple studies support the mental health benefits of swimming.

Hydration

Finally, Brenda hydrates, especially after a long workout or sun exposure. 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.

Romani makes sure to work out on a regular basis. She shares a lot of Instagram stories in her highlights of herself at the gym. The Mayo Clinic says that regular exercise is extremely important. “Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help you keep off lost weight.

She Supports Animals

Romani has her own charity, Help Miami Cats. She talked about how she started this in the caption of this Instagram post. “❤️ Guys!!!! I have always loved cats and had many growing up. When I moved to Miami Beach I met a great calico named Chacha and learnt that cats were brought to the city by Mayor Lummus … against rodents. Cats rely on volunteers for their food and water and there’s a huge amount of them. There’s a city program to Spay and neuter with the wonderful @sobecats ladies and the feeding is made official by a City Sanctioned badge, yet new cats keep getting dumped daily sadly and there’s a never ending amount of work, emergencies and so on. I was on a feeding rotation but during the pandemic I was left alone caring for so many as people left town or couldn’t afford feeding anymore …I decided to start my own non profit @helpmiamicats . We feed close to 200 and when Batman got paralyzed took him and other special needs cats under my care … @stevensachs69 with the cat room and the amazing people involved devote their lives to these special souls … My life has changed a lot too … way less spare time, way more sweat and tears and lost the person I had by my side who had sadly other priorities … yet gained so much love from these lovely creatures !!! If you can please get involved in any way … follow @helpmiamicats , share, volunteer, adopt … donate … Only together we can make their world a better place !!! And yes … just me feeding the kitties and talking to them … 🤷🏻♀️👀😆❤️🙌”
