Jennifer Aniston, at 57, maintains an enviable physique through consistent strength training, which she considers non-negotiable. However, she avoids traditional barbells, opting instead for Pvolve, a low-impact system validated by an Exeter University study for improving strength and balance in menopausal women.
The Pvolve Method
Her trainer, Dani Coleman, describes Pvolve as a functional fitness method mimicking everyday movements—forward, sideways, and rotational—using unique resistance equipment to enhance stability, mobility, and strength. While some exercises require specialist gear, many of Aniston's favourite moves rely solely on bodyweight.
Sample Low-Impact Workout
Coleman has shared an equipment-free, 25-minute full-body workout that Aniston uses. This routine includes plank variations, single-leg work, balance exercises, and multidirectional movements to build full-body strength and coordination. No equipment is needed, so anyone can try it.
Weekly Training Plan
Aniston trains three times per week, averaging 45 minutes per session, either in person with Coleman or via the Pvolve app. She adapts intensity based on her energy levels, sometimes opting for shorter, slower-paced strength and sculpt workouts focused on mobility and stability. Coleman notes her consistency is inspiring, calling her the epitome of working smarter, not harder.
Core Strength Focus
Coleman emphasises that Aniston's core strength is unmatched. They prioritise deep core muscles—transverse abdominis, multifidus, pelvic floor, and diaphragm—to protect her back, especially after a 2021 injury. Her routine includes plank variations, stability exercises, and rotational movements using the P3 trainer, a resistance band attached to wrist and ankle.
Balance and Longevity
Single-leg strength and stability training are key. Exercises like standing on one leg, driving the knee forward, and extending the leg behind improve balance and help prevent falls, which is crucial for healthy ageing.
