Tracy Anderson is a petite and blonde woman: she looks like an actress, but she is the most popular personal trainer among the stars, having restored actresses and singers such as Madonna, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow in shape.

In a recent interview with the monthly ” Hamptons “, Anderson reveals not only the weaknesses of her clients, but dispels some commonplace and gives some advice to keep in perfect physical shape.

HOW TO STAY IN SHAPE ACCORDING TO TRACY ANDERSON

1. The perfect workout?
   The total body.
   The total body is a workout that sculpts your body, and consists of exercises that often involve several muscle groups together, such as squats, alternating with more specific exercises, for example legs, buttocks, arms.
   Tracy’s workout is a mix of aerobics and full body to get in shape, and it’s the kind of workout she recommends to everyone. No special accessories, no weights. You use your own body weight to tone up, and it’s ideal for women who want a fit but not heavy body. Many gyms also offer total body programs.
2. How many times to train?
   Tracy recommends training no less than 5/6 hours a week: for example 4 times a week for about an hour and twenty, or 5-6 one-hour workouts with a weekend break. You can proceed gradually to arrive at this result. Her clients don’t train any more than that, she reveals.
3. How long to train: on this Tracy is categorical.
   You don’t do fitness for a month or a season. Those who do fitness do it for their whole life, also to be able to feed themselves better, without doing drastic diets and maintaining lean mass in a healthy way. So if you choose to do physical activity you have to be constant and don’t give up.
4. Is there a special diet for those who have to train?
   Tracy recommends an active lifestyle rather than a diet, even if she is one who moderates herself at the table and chooses a healthy cuisine. White meats, green leafy vegetables, smoothies with milk, spinach or kale and blueberries, berries are the basis of Tracy’s diet.
5. What advice can you give to those who start?
   Not to over train with hours of gymnastics, but to choose the right training, not to go beyond an hour and a half and above all have fun. In this way, fitness regulates stress levels, lowering it and pushing the metabolism to burn more. To make sure you are doing well, you can stand in front of the mirror. A good idea is to combine training with music that helps us focus on the exercises and doesn’t make them too boring.
