Hilary Duff

Hilary Duff has been in the media spotlight since a young age. Her weight has been criticized by the media and we have seen it shrink and rise. She’s now found a happy medium and isn’t too strict on herself. Her biggest slim down was a result of eating small meals throughout the day and cutting out big things like french fries. “I saw such a big difference so fast! Now I’m like, ‘Yes, this is awesome!’ And I’m still full all the time,” the 17-year-old says. But Duff insists she doesn’t want to become super-skinny: “I like to look normal.” She did at one stage shrink to 45kgs and as she looks back has decided that she never wants to be that thin again. Here is what the Duffster told Self Magazine in an interview regarding her workout.

“I try to do pilates three times a week. It’s hard, though, because now I’ve told all my friends about my pilates instructor and my little secret place and now I can’t even get my own appointment! I’ll also go to the gym with my sister and friend and do cardio.”

When asked what sort of cardio she does..

“I run on the treadmill. I start off in a power walk on a high incline to warm up so I won’t get cramps and stuff, and then I’ll lower it. I can’t jog on an incline. I’d be so tired! I also do the elliptical. I get really out of breath and get a headache on the treadmill, so the elliptical is better. Also, it works your arms.”

Duff also credits pilates for her weight loss, to find out more about Pilates for weight loss click here.

” Seriously, my body changed in three weeks. I’ve always been really muscular; that’s why pilates is good for me. I have broad shoulders and if I do weights or something I’ll bulk up and feel manly, but pilates lengthens me out. Also you feel really powerful.”
