Anyone can be red carpet ready!

Take inspiration from these celebrity workouts and adopt a fitter, healthier lifestyle!

It's award season (I realize I am writing this post-Oscars but no matter) and I'm finding many fabulous resources for new workouts! Also floating around the internet and flashing on our TV screens are images of celebrities wearing beautiful gowns and dashing tuxedos. I have to say that seeing all that glitz and glamour makes me want to exercise. I may not be wearing a gown for the Oscars anytime soon (I'm not ruling out the possibility either), but I don't need to go to an award ceremony to work towards feeling amazing in my clothes. Who needs a red carpet to be red carpet ready? Not me and definitely not you!

So what kind of exercises do these celebrities do to get themselves in shape? Everyday Health shares their workout tips and routines from ten famous ladies in Red-Carpet Fitness Routines and from ten famous men in Work Out Like a Star.

Everyday Health pulls inspiration from such famous names as Jennifer Garner, Jennifer Aniston and Helen Mirren to George Clooney, Sting and Denzel Wahington. These fabulous fitness tidbits will give you and me some great ways to enhance our exercise routines!

PGX checks out what the stars did to get Emmy ready.

Another awards show, another parade of fitness and style. But these stars actually do work for their physiques...

Yes. I couldn't resist bringing this topic up today. Last night, along with many many other people I'm sure, I was glued to the television (doing work during commercial breaks) watching the stars parade down TV's red carpet and into the theatre. And who didn't enjoy Jane Lynch's musical antics?!

SELF Magazine has a great slide show of the the stunning stars along with the insider info on their workouts. Want to know what Gwyneth Paltrow does to maintain her slender figure? Looking for a workout to get toned legs like Nina Dobrev? Or maybe you're looking for something a little more rhythm-filled like Sofia Vergara? Personally, I think Sofia's idea of a workout is the best!

Don't be discouraged by the photos of these fit and trim ladies. Just remember: they have to work hard to keep their bodies healthy and in shape, just like you and I. So good health to you all! I'm off to exercise, Sofia Vergara style!

Ciao everyone!

On Wednesday, eTalk featured celebrity trainer Brent Bishop and he shared three easy moves that you can do at home to get those long lean limbs, flat abs and toned muscles!

These classic but tweaked exercises will help you reach your fitness goals. It won't be long before those photographers are taking your photo and asking, "Who are you wearing?!"Image sources: Ian Mutoo, Cineplex Movie Blog and Torontoist.com
