Cameron Diaz has earned the title of one of the fittest women in Hollywood. She didn't always have the slender and perfect physique that she has today. Six years ago her body journey started thanks to the grueling three-month martial arts training she endured for the movie Charlie's Angels. When asked about her Charlie's Angels training..
"At the end of each day, I thought I would die" she admits. "It was the most intense thing I have ever done in my life. I made a decision that I would never let it get to a point where I forgot what it was like to be strong"
She has since then recruited Teddy Bass as a celebrity personal trainer. She works out five days a week but focuses strongly on outdoor sports aswell (such as surfing, snow boarding and hiking)
Her personal training is paying off big time. She is constantly in tabloid magazines under 'best bikini body' sections and her legs are quite often complimented.
The paparazzi commonly snap Cameron Diaz at the beach surfing or swimming. She has been seen sun baking with fellow Charlie's Angels star Drew Barrymore which caused much controversy after they were photographed smoking a suspicious looking cigarette.
What Does Cameron Diaz Eat?
Cam skips breakfast and has dinner instead, ensuring that she stays fuller for longer and consumes less calories during the day. She also eats six small low carb meals per day. Cam is also rumored to eat 10 meals a day but judging by her slender physique we are inclined to argue that she eats six meals.
Breakfast: Garlic rice, broccolini, eggs, lemon and either chicken or beef.
Meal 2: Protein shake with water
Lunch: Salad and lean chicken or beef
Meal 4: Fruit & a handful of nuts
Dinner: Egg white omlette with herbs, tomato, onion, mushrooms
Meal 6: Protein shake with water
How Does Cameron Diaz Workout?
Cameron Diaz has a vigorous workout focused on toning.
Monday - Friday
25-30 minutes of cardio and weights plus reverse lunges (see below) and wide plies
Reverse Lunge: Stand with your feet together. Keep your chest out, mid-section firm and do not arch your back. Place your hands on your hips and step backwards with your left leg (bending both of your knees). Once your left knee is almost touching the floor, push up carefully with your left foot until you're back to the starting position. Swap legs and repeat.
As mentioned earlier, Diaz does plenty of outdoor sports in addition to her workout.
Celebrity Diets And Workouts
Gwen on her post-pregnancy body: "Your metabolism is like, whooosh! You're sleep deprived, but you have this crazy amount of energy because of all those hormones. I'm scared what'll happen when it all stops. What it'll feel like, going back to the regular me. Now I'm in a repeater zone. I just want to make babies and make records."
We've all seen Gwen's weight fluctuate post pregnancy and the world watched as Gwen lost the baby weight dramatically. Her body snapped back into top shape in a matter of weeks (something which takes 'normal' people years to achieve!) I suppose when your income and career is based 80% on your looks it's imperative to be in top shape!
Gwen on her "My Fair Lady" inspired spread: "I've gotten a little more feminine over the last few years. As the years go by, you get more comfortable with looking more like a woman."
She definitely has gotten more feminine! I don't know about you, but I remember seeing some snaps of Gwen on the red carpet wearing a fluro 'Crazy Britney' wig with chunkified metal braces and pasty skin. While she still has the pasty skin, she's made it her own with bright rocker red lipstick and fierce frosty blonde hair.
Gwen on struggling to maintain her size 4 figure: "I hate talking about it, but it's true. "I've always been on a diet, ever since I was in the sixth grade. It's an ongoing battle and it's a nightmare. But I like clothes too much, and I always wanted to wear the outfits I would make. And I'm very vain."
I found that quote slightly disturbing. If my sixth grade daughter was dieting I'd certainly be concerned. I can't imagine Gwen ever being overweight, she has a very small bone structure and what seems like a fast metbolism judging from her previous statement on pregnancy. Hmmm....eating disorder anyone?
What Does Gwen Stefani Eat?
When asked what Gwen Stefani eats she replies "all the healthy stuff, but I usually let myself cheat once or twice a day with a pizza or a cookie". Luckily for you, I've has asked Gwen Stefani's personal trainer to reveal her diet and workout schedule.
