Jennifer Aniston, 55, Reveals The 3 Low-Impact Exercises She Swears By To Maintain Her Toned Physique

Experts Explain Why Jennifer Aniston's Low-Impact Exercises (Mountain Climbers, Pushups, And Single Leg Raises/Squats) Are So Good

It's no coincidence that the Office Christmas Party actress does these exercises, as she more than likely received great advice from a trainer. These three low-impact exercises can be great for toning your body, and experts describe in detail what they can do for you when you incorporate them into your workout routine. Let's take a look at some of the benefits below…

1: Mountain Climbers

Andrew White, a certified personal trainer and co-founder of garagegympro.com, says: "Mountain climbers are a full-body workout that elevates your heart rate, providing both a cardiovascular and muscular workout. They're particularly effective for engaging the core and lower body, which helps in boosting metabolism. From my training sessions, mountain climbers have been a go-to exercise for clients looking to increase their metabolic rate and improve their overall fitness."

2: Single Leg Raises/Squats

Engaging in single leg raises/squats can be a game-changer for toning your body. This dynamic exercise not only targets your quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes but also activates core muscles for stability. According to Andrew Lenau, a senior coach and CPT, squats are also fantastic for us as we age, which could be why Aniston is in such great shape!

"Squats are a functional movement that mimics everyday activities like sitting down and standing up. Regularly practicing squats improves your joint flexibility, range of motion, and overall balance, making it easier to perform daily tasks with confidence and grace."

3: Pushups

"Pushups are incredible and work out every part of your body, helping to tone all your muscles. Doing just 3 sets of 12 pushups three or four times a week can help you start seeing results after only a few weeks," explains Caleb Backe, certified personal trainer and health expert for Maple Holistics. "If you find it hard initially to do a full pushup try doing modified ones, using your knees to steady you and pushing up using your torso and hands."
