Secrets of an A-List Body: How to Get Anne Hathaway's Enviable Waist
Key Highlights :
When Anne Hathaway stepped onto the red carpet at the Clooney Foundation for Justice's 2023 Albie Awards at the New York Public Library last month, heads turned to admire her toned figure. At 40, the mother-of-two looks as fit and fabulous as ever, and her secret to achieving such an enviable waist is a combination of dance-based warm-ups, cardio, and resistance training.
Anne has always been dedicated to her fitness routine, having said in an interview while training for her role as Catwoman a decade ago, “I’ve always thought skinny was the goal, but with this job I have to be strong.” This attitude has clearly paid off as Anne now feels “stronger than ever”.
So, how can you get your own A-List body? Here are some of Anne’s favorite exercises that you can incorporate into your own fitness routine.
V-Sits
V-sits are an excellent exercise to target your abs, obliques, and hip flexors while also improving your balance and posture. To do this exercise, lie on your back on a mat and extend your arms above your head and legs out straight. Keeping your legs straight, bring your hands and toes up towards the ceiling to touch each other, so you are balancing on your lower back. Lower down, then tap your hands and feet to the floor. Repeat three sets of ten, three times a week.
Squats
Squats are a great way to strengthen your glutes and core muscles, and can be done anywhere. To do a squat, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms out in front of you. Bend your knees and lower your body as if you were sitting in a chair. Keep your back straight and your core engaged. Hold the position for a few seconds, then slowly rise back up. Repeat this exercise three sets of ten, three times a week.
Planks are a great way to build core strength and stability. To do a plank, start in a push-up position with your arms straight and your feet together. Bend your elbows and lower your forearms to the floor. Hold the position for 30 seconds, then slowly rise back up. Repeat this exercise three sets of ten, three times a week.
These exercises, combined with a healthy diet, can help you achieve an A-List body just like Anne Hathaway. So, what are you waiting for? Get up and get moving!
