Katherine Heigel: Kettlebells Workout

Katherine Heigel, the star of Grey’s Anatomy and this summer’s romantic comedy hit The Ugly Truth, is dedicated to her workouts.  Just before her wedding she started working out with trainer Missy Beaver and since then the two of them workout together twice a week to keep in shape for Grey’s Anatomy.  However, in order to prepare for her role in The Ugly Truth they stepped up the workouts to four times a week.  Beaver told InStyle Magazine that they do Kettlebells because they work faster than putting in hours at the gym.  She said,
“With Katherine’s busy schedule, Kettlebell workouts are perfect because in 20-minute sessions you get a cardio, strength and flexibility workout that would take hours at the gym.”
She continued on to say that Kettlebells workouts are challenging and intense but you always get positive results and those results were evident as can be seen on The Ugly Truth where Heigel looks exceptionally svelte.

Katherine Heigel on Body Image and Hollywood

Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigel or on the July/August issue of Fitness First Magazine promoting their summertime romantic comedy, The Ugly Truth.  The cover story was primarily about Gerard Butler but we did get a bit of insight into Katherine’s views on body image and the influences of Hollywood.  She said,
“I don’t have a lot of discipline.  If I wasn’t in this industry I wouldn’t workout.  But I have hips and a butt and everything that goes along with that, including cellulite, so I do the best I can.When people say, ‘You have a real body’ to me, I’m like, ‘Is that a backhanded compliment?’”
As for other celebrities, here’s what she had to say:
“Kate Winslet has a fantastic body, period.  it’s far more my taste than, say, Nicole Richie’s.  You don’t have to look like that to be fashionable or hot.  I don’t condone obesity but I don’t think we all need to to be a f**king size two.  It’s a ridiculous goal.”
Katherine also gave a few words of advice:
“You know what’s important?  Living well and not being consumed with eating boring salads that you hate; eat brie, and have a glass of red wine!  Everybody has different body types, and I’m sick of this thing where we should all be little clones of one another.”
Since Katherine said that she too has cellulite she naturally said she wasn’t into doing nudity scenes in a movie:
“I think nudity [in productions] is distracting – the audience isn’t paying attention to your acting; they’re looking at your boobs.  I don’t want the whole world seeing me completely naked.  I’m flawed, I’m not perfect.  But clothes help; a good bra with some underwire definitely helps a lot!”
