Personal Trainer Tustin of Jungle Fitness Orange County: Alessandra Ambrosio & Hugh Jackman maintain their sexy and fit appeal?!

Hey everyone,  Happy Celebrity Thursday & welcome to the official JUNGLE FITNESS Orange County Personal Trainer Blog! Today, we're looking into how the sexiest celebrities maintain their sexy and fit appeal while still eating all the foods they all love.

 

Alessandra Ambrosio Celebrity Eating Habits and Workout

Victoria Secret Model Alessandra Ambrosio At 5 ft 10 inches and 112 lbs she has been described as the "Future of the Modeling World" by Retired Supermodel Tyra Banks. She also ranked 6 in the top 99 most desirable women of 2007, what is her secret?

Eating Habits

So does Alessandra Ambrosio follow specific eating habits, or is on a strict weight loss program? Maybe she is one of those famous models who doesn't eat anything outside her "weight loss program" or her "Healthy Eating Habits"? It turns out Alessandra is one of those models who actually does watch what she eats, sort of, and takes great care of her body.

Individuals that use portion control as the basis for their daily diet choices, eat whatever they chose but only in small amounts. The bonus is obviously that you don't feel like you are depriving yourself of anything. On the down side, the dieter must make sure they are getting proper nutrition, and not just eating junk food all day. Most people who follow portion control principles will eat a pretty healthy diet, most of the time, but then they will have a high fat food, or high calorie whenever they want, but just a smaller portion than served.

She says she enjoys caipirinha (a Brazilian Cocktail) and some chocolates daily. Some of her favorite Cuisines styles are Polish, Guacha, Japanese, and Thai.

Fitness and Exercise

Alessandra likes activities rather than workouts, but does have a personal trainer. She enjoys Volleyball, Surfing, Rollerblading, and Snowboarding. She is very conscious of her butt and works out with her Brazilian trainer Leandro twice a month. The workout is the Brazilian Butt Lift, which is a mix of samba, Capoeira and aerobics.

Secrets

She takes Yves St. Laurent Total Fitness Slimming Gel with her everywhere she travels to prevent cellulite, and her favorite beauty product is VS Angel Moisturizer.

 

 

Hugh Jackman Workout Plan

Star of X-Men and Australia, Hugh Jackman has built a body like a brick and his next superhero movie "Wolverine" is going to show him at his best physique. So what is this Aussie doing that has his training program so highly requested by other celebrities?

Hugh's workouts consisted of a multi-phase approach.

1st phase was focused on building mass by changing the speed of each lift, 3 sec count up and then a 1 sec count down or really slow 4 sec count up and 4 count down.

2nd phase focused on strength by lifting really heavy weights, without the sec count.

Each phase lasted from six to twelve weeks, for 1-2hrs, 5 days a week.

When it is close to shooting time, he lifts weights 1 day and fills the other days with running, yoga, pilates, and stretching. For the full workout check out below…

 

Day 1

Perform 12 reps (pick a weight so the 12th rep is hard); 3 seconds up and 3 seconds down.

* Push-ups: Do immediately after chest press. Keep head in line with the spine and support lower back by pulling belly button into the spine. Can be done from knees or toes. Perform 25 reps (take a break if you have to, but finish 25). Rest 1 minute and repeat Dumbbell Press and Push-ups for 3 sets.

* Swiss Ball Crunch (do immediately after jack knife): Lie on top of ball with low back supported; pull in belly button to spine.

* Sprint: Outside or on treadmill, sprint 1 minute at 80 per cent intensity.

* Lat Pull Downs : Do 50.

* Stairs: Take every second step. Perform 20 reps (up and down is 1).

 

Celebrities work so hard to look the way they do because it's their job and maybe if they retire, they will still workout and continue to look their greatest.  Those who do not work out are susceptible to illness and diseases than people who work out.  Working out is the miracle medicine that works for us all.  It can take over few decades of age right off of you.  Why wait?  Act now!

This is Jon Jung and… I'm out.
