Tracy Anderson in Bikini Breaks a Sweat in a “New Era”

Tracy Anderson is breaking a sweat in her bikini. In a new social media post, the 50-year-old fitness trainer flaunts her fat-free figure on workout equipment. “The springs remember. And so does she. A new era is rising at #studio3500 🩰🤎,” she captioned the post. How does the fitness pro stay in such fantastic shape? Here are a few of her key diet and fitness habits.

Tracy is not a fan of crash diets. “I firmly believe that you must have a choice in what you reach for to nourish yourself, or you are sacrificing a primal, guttural tool you need to survive and thrive. Diets that over control you switch off inner conversations that define your mental and physical health,” she wrote in a blog post. She doesn’t believe in specific portion sizes; instead, she eats until she feels nourished.

Tracy doesn’t eat any processed food. “One thing I believe about balance is we have to harvest our nutrition from the earth and know there is no such thing as prepackaged nutrition. The truth is your workout takes a little time and your food prep takes a little time, but the return on your investment is a lot more quality time,” she added in her blog.

Tracy starts the day with a popular ayurvedic drink: Lemon water. “I start my morning with lemon water mixed with a teaspoon of olive oil and a pinch of sea salt,” she revealed in the blog.

Tracy starts the day with a coffee, which she drinks black “with a thin layer of oat milk foam” on top. “For breakfast, I opt for an apple blueberry purée. It has a wholesome sweetness to it, which gives me energy throughout the start of the day,” she said. For lunch, she eats a hot broccoli and cauliflower salad, as well as a parsnip, carrot, pea, and herb purée. “It leaves me satisfied, but never sluggish,” she added. If she snacks, she will eat half of a dark chocolate bar, a dairy-free, allergen-free Enjoy Life chocolate bar, or an additional portion of the fruit purees. “If I feel my mind is spinning—and I have nowhere to drive—I will opt for one crisp glass of wine,” she said. “For dinner, I would pair a fennel and pea soup with an herb-roasted black cod. The soup is super flavorful and light, and the cod is protein-packed and surprisingly hearty.”

Tracy exercises like it’s her job. “If you don’t work out one day, you’re going to stay the same or gain weight. It’s fine if you want to give yourself a day to rest, but know that as long as you’re not exercising in a way that’s invasive to your body, you can exercise seven days a week,” she told People. “It cracks me up when people say, ‘How long do I have to commit to this exercise program?’ or ‘How long until I can just do this two to three days a week?’ That’s not reality. We need to get used to taking care of our bodies. To put it in perspective: We spend five minutes a day brushing our teeth, and teeth are tiny in comparison to the rest of our bodies. So if teeth take up five minutes of your day, the rest of your body can take up 30 to 60 minutes.”
