Zac Efron
From his roles in “Neighbors” and “Baywatch” we have seen Efron in incredible physical shape. He emphasizes that staying in shape is not only about training but stretching as well!
Efron told PEOPLE that he trains for the simple purpose of being able to live his fullest life. “I want to still be ready to do anything, be capable of doing whatever life needs or wants me to do, so there’s as much stretching now as there is training,” he said.
Carrie Underwood
In an interview with Shape, Carrie Underwood talked about how she finds a way to get a workout in without equipment. By staying disciplined and improvising, Underwood is able to be physical fit.
“I’ve become an expert at working out with nothing! I’m great at putting things together, and thinking: ‘What do I have around me that I can use?’ Maybe it’s three steps—I can use that! Or I have a chair I can do dips on. Obviously, if you work with your body weight, you can do push-ups anywhere. You can do sit-ups anywhere. You can be in your hotel room, and you don’t have to leave. You just have to think outside the box, and get creative.”
Jason Momoa
Self-discipline helps Jason Momoa make time to work out before most people wake up. Momoa uses working out to help prevent mental health issues.
“I get up at 5 am and I train hard. I’ve got two young children, so I have to get up early. But I like it. Morning is when I do all my best work. Whenever I wake up, I’m up, I don’t lie there like an idiot. I get up, run up a hill, get some exercise and have some time with my thoughts.” reported by Men’s Journal
Jennifer Lopez

Kevin Hart
In an interview with Men’s Journal, Kevin Hart talked about how diet plays a primary role in staying in shape.
