Dancing With the Stars host Julianne Hough is incredibly disciplined when it comes to her health and fitness regimen. Hough, 35, shared a video of herself wearing black shorts and a matching sports bra, doing a kettlebell workout at the gym. She also does a mat workout and uses dumbbells. “Up in the gym just working on my fitness 😜,” she captioned the post. “Hot stuff hot haircut,” commented Chelsea Handler. Here’s how Hough is thriving in her 30s.

Hough relaxes with wine and friends. “I love unwinding with people on a lake, having a glass of wine and playing games, because the sense of community feeds my soul,” she told E! News. “I also love my space and unwinding on my own.”
Hough knows how important exercise is for mental health and wellness. “The more you move, it directly affects the way you feel,” she told E! News. “Whether it’s a Kinrgy class or doing Pilates or yoga, the fact that we get to combine all of those modalities is my favorite because I love versatility… I need a little bit of something different and unique so that my brain stays active.”
Hough is an accomplished and talented dancer. “I have been fortunate enough to try so many different forms of expression over the years but dance has always been the beginning and end for me. I will always come back to dance. This year I made an intention and concerted effort to bring dance back into my life through really challenging myself artistically and athletically. Training! Zoi was a person and choreographer that I have been a fan of for years and that I felt was going to test my limits as that artistic athlete and dancer and I was not wrong. I hope you enjoy this piece. This is the first of more to come ✨” she captioned an Instagram post.
Hough believes in a holistic approach to health and fitness. “This is the age of energetic health,” she told E! News. “Because if you can change your energy, then you can change your mindset, and then you can change your physicality. We’ve been going about it the other way, which is: If I’m physical, then my body is going to look good. But if you focus more on your energy, then you get fitness as a plus.”
Hough needs to move her body at least once a day to feel her best. “I know that I can walk around the hills with my dog,” she told E! News. “That’s key because I have to get her out, too. But movement in general, whether it’s 10 minutes or five minutes of something, I have to move my body.”
