@ElizabethBanks Trainer Tells Us About her Awesome Energy

Posted By: Erin Gross • 0 Comments

Want to look like Elizabeth Banks? Ya, we do too. But my pleasantly plump ass, is a long way off. But I am paying attention to Shape and figuring out how to get my rear end thin…

With such a strong, lean, and toned bod, there’s no question the lovable girl-next-door can rock any role—or outfit! How does she stay in such amazing shape? We spoke with her fabulous personal trainer, Joselynne Boschen of Alpha Sport, to steal her stay-fit secrets.

“Elizabeth is clearly genetically blessed, and she’s got the most awesome energy. She loves to work out!” Boschen says. “Fitness is her lifestyle. It makes things easier to maintain when you stay on top of exercising and just being healthy like she does.”

Banks, who has worked with Boschen for about five years, trains three days per week for an hour at a time when she’s in Los Angeles. Together they focus on functional agility training (components for the Nike Training Club which has joined forces with her gym) for a mix of cardio, free weights, medicine balls, plyometrics, and TRX training. The workouts are tough, but never the same!

“It’s important to change it up daily. There is nothing more boring to me—or Elizabeth—than the same thing over and over. If you can take it outside and combine your workouts with things like hiking, even better!” she says.
