Do you remember watching the TV series Alias and marveling at Sydney Bristow’s ability to assume several aliases like a chameleon while maintaining her true identity? As a series included in multiple “best of” lists and with raving critic reviews, the show and the lead actor are unforgettable for the TV buffs of the early 2000s. But Alias isn’t Garner’s only claim to fame. She is remarkable in all her on-screen characters!
Whether it is a struggling actress in Time of Your Life, the proficient Dr. Eve Saks in Dallas Buyers Club, or the martial arts expert Elektra Natchios in Daredevil, she continues to charm us. Besides the reel-life image she has created for herself, she’s also quite the game changer in her real life, with several activism initiatives and efforts to her credit.
What’s more? Garner is all set to steal the limelight once again, giving her fans a walk down memory lane and the Gen-Zs a sneak peek into her golden days with the reprise of her role as Elektra in the Marvel Cinematic Universe movie Deadpool. That made us wonder what keeps Garner fit as a fiddle at 51! We were glad to spot Garner in glowing health in her recent appearances and interviews, so we decided to get to the bottom of her health and fitness secrets. So, what is it that she does to stay fit?
Garner is one of those who takes the farm-to-table concept very seriously. She loves having roasted veggies like broccoli picked fresh from her garden. She also likes to start her day with full-fat yogurt with nuts and berries and an apple somewhere around breakfast. When it comes to food choices, Garner told EatingWell, “A typical lunch is a big arugula salad, some dark greens.” She added, “It’s chopped-up veggies, whatever’s fresh in the garden—broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, sugar snap peas, peppers, anything.”
What about exercise? Garner is a huge champion of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), which involves short periods of high-intensity exercises. She’s particularly into plyometrics, which involves high-impact movements to burn calories quickly. Talking to Women’s Health about fitness, she said, “Building your cardiovascular fitness and building your strength—it’s not about how you look, it’s not about how you fit into clothes, it’s about your own strength and pushing yourself further than you think you can go.”
We also gather that she’s an early riser. To sum it up, she does a lot for her body, and it totally shows!
