You don’t need to be a celebrity to get a celebrity inspired workout at home.  These workouts are what you need to get into the right shape and they don’t require a lot of money or a famous trainer. Just some simple fundamentals and a few pieces of small equipment are required before you can start.

The most obvious way to get a celebrity inspired workout is to buy DVDs that celebrities endorsed. Tracey Anderson is the hottest trainer in Hollywood right now and happens to have DVDs on the market that give you the exact same workout done by her celebrity clients like Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna. Well, not the exact same. Let’s be honest : the only real way to workout like Madonna is to be Madonna. Already done. However, you can get the same exercises and routines that she do at a fraction of the cost.  

In case you are not the DVD type  of human, you can also opt for a book.  Harley Pasternak is a big hollywood trainer (Halle Berry) and has many books out about his methods all with very good photographic examples. Bob Greene of Oprah fame is another well published trainer to the stars. Books are a great way to learn about new methods of working out and act as a visual reference that you can everlastingly go back to.

Want to try a celebrity gym workout but don’t belong to one of the trendiest workout places? Physique 57, The Bar Method, and Core Fusion are all celebrity hot spots with their Lotte Burke Method and Pilates inspired moves. These three workouts are offered only in exclusive settings, although you can obtain the same advantages at home using their new DVDs.  maybe you want something specific like Jessica Biel’s arms or Jennifer Aniston’s bottom? You might be surprised that some of the best bodies in Hollywood get that way from very basic workouts that don’t  need many equipment.

Jessica Biel’s arms are due to strength training with free weights and good old fashioned pushups. Jennifer Aniston contributes her bottom’s physique to Yoga. Neither of them would do something that you too cannot work on at home. All it takes is a little patience and tenacity.

But the real secret to the stars beautiful bodies is not really a secret at all. Hard work. Really hard work. If you had the money and schedule to hire the best trainers to work you out five days a week for two hours a day, you would look like the stars too. That is not to say that you can’t, just that you always need to have some perspective when coveting the hollywood bods. Any workout you choose to do at home, be it the celebrity kind or not, should be composed of all the basic elements: Strength training, flexibility, and cardio.  Go for a variety of programs to keep you on track and to keep you and your muscles from getting bored.
