Jessica Alba is dancing in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the 43-year-old actress looks half her age in a black bikini, dancing to Charli XCX’s Apple. “I heard it’s a #brat summer 💚,” she captioned the Instagram Reel. “Absolutely stunning,” commented one of her followers. “Lovely 😍,” added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Jessica is a big fan of her longtime trainer Ramona Braganza’s 321 Training Method, created specifically for the actress. “I developed it when Jessica Alba and I were shooting many films on location so I needed something effective, requiring minimal equipment, flexible whether you have 20 minutes, half an hour, or a full hour to train,” the celebrity trainer tells Celebwell.
Alba mixes up her workouts so she doesn’t get bored. Braganza told Harper’s Bazaar that they sometimes hike together. “Sometimes when the gym is absolutely not what Jessica wants, we will go outside and walk the hills near her home.”
The 3-2-1 Method starts with three cardio exercises. “An example of cardio could be either treadmill, spinning, or dance. Next up, the 2, which translates to two circuits. “Usually it’s three in a row exercises that train specific body parts on different days,” Braganza tells us. Then, one part core. “Twisting moves target obliques and transverse, the muscle that cinches in the waist,” are an exercise that Jess demonstrates in a recent workout video.
Braganza reveals that Jessica gets her zen on before and after her workouts. “Our workouts have become more of a mind body spirit evolution as Jess is now in her 40s which includes meditation before we train that raises our vibrations to give us a positive mindset and finishes with a gratitude meditation,” she says.
“Before becoming a mom, my femininity was defined by society’s standards of what it means to be desirable to men,” Jessica told The Cut. “Now I understand what feeling powerful from a woman’s point of view means. It has nothing to do with whether someone desires you, it’s more about how connected you feel to yourself. You end up attracting people when you’re confident and you feel good in your skin. And that’s a by-product of being connected to your feminine energy.”
