5 Celebrity Trainer Secrets

Get ready to be gorgeous on the beach with these exclusive workout tips from stars' trainers!

1. Kate Beckinsale: Celebrity Trainer Ramona Braganza "Combine interval and cardio circuit training for one hour. But don't rest for more than a few seconds between each exercise. This should burn 500 to 600 calories and keep your metabolism moving."

2. Chloë Sevigny: Celebrity Trainer Gregg Miele "Do cardio first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Your body will search for an energy source, and since you'll probably have burned all your carbohydrates overnight, it will tap into fat. You could even have a shot of espresso or cup of black coffee before your workout to further boost your metabolism."

3. Eva Mendes: Celebrity Trainer Harley Pasternak "When you're at the gym, focus on the muscles on the back of your body, like your rhomboids (do reverse incline dumbbell rows), triceps (do lying dumbbell triceps extensions), and hamstrings (do dumbbell deadlifts)."

4. Jennifer Garner: Celebrity Trainer Valerie Waters "You have to eat better - nobody can out-train a crappy diet. I start all my clients off with a kitchen purge. Get out the trash can and throw away all of your processed junk: crackers, cookies, and white bread, rice, and pasta. Willpower alone won't get you through, and this way, you won't have to rely on it."
5. Christie Brinkley: Celebrity Trainer Oscar Gonzalez "I tell my clients to be proud. It's funny to watch their reactions when I say this, but they all automatically do what I'm looking for: They squeeze and tighten their abdominal muscles so that they stand or sit up straight. Doing that alone works the abdominals, but it also gives you a better overall workout."
