Courteney Cox is already over 40 but oh my oh my, look at her body. She still looks like a model. Now how did she maintain that body? Here is her secret
Courteney Cox diet and exercise
Courteney Cox’s Diet
Courteney Cox tries to eat healthy and keep her body weight at a certain level. She’s known to have been on a lot of diets including: Blood Type, Atkins, Carbohydrate Addict, etc. The last one was the most efficient of all for Courteney and the actress liked it because she could eat carbohydrates for dinner.
Courteney Cox says her secret on dieting is “I know what to eat and I know how to eat. If I eat pasta for dinner, I gain weight, if I eat protein, I lose weight. Everyone says I am too thin. I just have a fast metabolism.”
Courteney-Cox also follows the Carbohydrate Addict’s Diet: so she can still eat meat, seafood, butter, eggs, cheese and vegetables, but restrict carbohydrates to one “reward” meal a day. The Hellers say: “Balance is crucial in your reward meal. You need salad for fibre, protein for minerals and to stabilize blood sugar. The carbs are for energy and satisfaction.” Here you have a daily menu sample:
Breakfast: A scooped out poppy seed bagel with light cream cheese.
Lunch: Pasta.
Dinner: Salad.
Couteney Cox’s Exercise
Courteney Cox works out five times a week. Her exercise routine includes cardio, weight training, hiking, and running. The actress also practices Pilates and Budokon, the new hot stuff in Hollywood celebrity’s agenda.
Courteney said that Budokan is very intensive – it is not uncommon for people to burn up to 900 calories in a session, which is 50% more than a spinning session. And unlike spinning classes, Budokan is dynamic, exciting and far more socialable, like many other martial arts.
Every class involves three disciplines: meditation, martial arts and yoga. The order varies depending on the day, as Ryan believes in working with the mood of the class. This is actually how all good martial arts instructors teach. A class can be planned, but the students’ needs can change from week to week, and a flexible teacher makes a more engaging class. It is inspired by the centuries-old training systems of Buddhist monks and it offers an emotional, physical and spiritual work out. Really Budokon has a very similar philosophy to Tai Chi Chuan and Bagua.
