Exercise and nutrition for female celebrities?

Most women don't want to look like this:



However, some women do, and that's ok. But most women prefer something more along the lines of...



So, the question is inevitably, how do they get that look?

First, I would be remiss if I didn't throw out the gene card. Some women just have different body proportions than others (longer/shorter legs and torso's ect.), and different propensities to store fat. But, that hardly means there isn't anything to learn or gain (or should I say ungain?) from how female celebrities get these bodies.

That's why I want to call into attention two recent interviews from some of Hollywood's top trainers.

Warning: The following links do not contain nudity but may not be work safe.

The first interview comes from trainer Valerie Waters, who has been responsible for the bodies of the likes of Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Kate Beckinsale, Kerry Washington, Lauren Holly, Elizabeth Berkeley, Jennifer Lopez, Cindy Crawford, and many others.

Valerie likes to say that she gets her clients "Red Carpet Ready," meaning that her clients often need to look good for a special event like the red carpet, or a movie or photoshoot. How does she do it? In reference to getting Jennifer Garner ready for a shoot, she states:

The workouts prior to shooting were high intensity circuits, often mixed with running intervals.

The exact protocol that is recommended by the evolutionary fitness philosophy! What does she say about nutrition?

The majority of carbs should come from vegetables and fruits and if you do eat starchy foods, make sure they are whole grain.... Have some protein every time you eat... Eliminate white flour, sugar, and foods made with them. Get the majority of your carbs from fibrous vegetables like broccoli and asparagus.

Can you say paleo diet? Notice how Valerie says "if you do" eat starch, as in, "you don't need to but if you do, at least make it whole grain." Again, we see a parallel between Valerie's philosophy and the evolutionary fitness concept which sates, "meats, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, little starch, and no sugar."

Jason Walsh, the next trainer to be interviewed also has a philosophy very akin to evolutionary fitness. Jason has worked with the likes of Jessica Biel, Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale and Jennifer Garner.

When asked what he does with Jessica Biel, Jason replies:

We do a lot of single leg squats, stair hopping, planks, med ball throws, and sprints.

Hopping, throwing, and sprinting are all inherently high-intensity-burst like activities. As we can see, a common theme between these two trainers is a lack of endless hours of cardio, and a concentration on more high-intensity/interval like activity. Jason goes on in detail about more of Biel's training where he uses exercises such as front squats, bounding, shuttle runs, and chin ups in addition to the exercises described above. One of the days he says they do boxing, which again is an inherently high-intensity/interval like activity.

So, two interesting interviews that give some more validation to the evolutionary fitness concept.
