Happy birthday, Selena Gomez! Here's how she stays super fit
Actor and singer, Selena Gomez is a childhood favorite of those born in the late 90s, especially ever since she rose to fame as Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place. Beyond her on-screen charm, the Hollywood star garners admiration for her impeccable physique, reflecting her unwavering commitment to a diligent workout regimen. As she turns 31 today, here's revealing her best-kept fitness secrets.
Gomez loves working out, carries a sweat bag everywhere possible
Dedication is an important principle of Gomez's workout routine that she just can't trade for anything better. Per reports, she carries a sweat bag everywhere possible and does a combination of exercises including cardio, yoga, and Pilates in her free time. Reportedly, in a single session, the actor can burn around 800 to 1600 calories. She aims to walk 10,000 steps daily.
Here's her weekly fitness routine that keeps her in shape
On Mondays, Gomez does jogging, lunges, jumping jacks, squats, and stretching, while on Tuesdays she does crunches, lunges, jumping jacks, push-ups, jogging, and squats. Her Wednesday routines at the gym include circuit training, whereas on Thursdays she performs Pilates. The Monte Carlo actor indulges in yoga on Saturdays and keeps Fridays and Sundays reserved for rest and rejuvenation.
She hits the gym 3-5 times a week
Gomez usually works out three to five times a week. She keeps revamping her intensity and frequency time and again depending on her fitness goals and the character she is playing onscreen. Stretching plays a huge part in her overall fitness.
Fast food is her weakness but keeps away from it
Gomez is a lover of fast food but steers clear of it to achieve her fitness goals. According to sources, she starts her day with a shot of ginger which helps her improve her metabolism right in the morning. Per her wellness coach Amy Rosoff Davis, the actor is a huge fan of rice bowls with protein, avocado, and vegetables.
Here's what she prefers eating for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
If reports are to be believed, Gomez enjoys scrambled egg burritos, full-fat Greek yogurt, or beans/rice/avocado. For lunch, she prefers having turkey, beans, and avocado made with a dressing of lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and mustard. Her dinner scenes usually include sushi or a Teriyaki bowl with Asian marinated chicken/salmon, cucumber, avocado, and rice.
The singer switched from processed foods to whole foods
During her weight loss transformation, Gomez replaced processed foods with whole foods and picked offerings that helped her gain stamina and strength. She does not starve herself and ensures that she drinks a good amount of water throughout the day.
