Munn told Editor
Claire Connors that she and her friends keep in shape by creating exercises
inspired by ex-boyfriends bad dance moves.
"I came up with
dance aerobic routines that we do a few times a week to a 45-minute
playlist," she told Shape. "They have funny names like the
One-Night-Stand and the Ex-Boyfriend. We all have that ex with the stupid dance
who we love to hate, right? Mine did the
jumping-up-and-down-fist-pump-in-the-air-with-an-overexcited-smile-plastered-on-his-face
dance. It's so much more fun than the alternative workouts my friends plan.
They always ask me if I want to go for a hike. And I'm like, 'No, why would I
do that when I’ve got TiVo?'"
The star of the
brand new movie, "I Don't Know How She Does It" insists that you can
stay in shape without a trainer, a gym or sneakers. Munn swears by Pilates
which she has been doing for years. And for when he has the munchies, instead
of reaching for potato chips, her go to snack is Vlasic Kosher Pickles because
she says "they're a perfect fit for stress-eating" and the vinegar
works as an appetite suppressant.
She also told Shape
about her "If I can't see it, I don't eat it" diet which helped her
lose 16 pounds in two months!
"For example,
if you buy a roasted chicken at the store, it sounds healthy, right? But those
brown juices in the pan are made of what? Sugar? Soy sauce? If I don’t know for
sure, it’s not going in my mouth."
She also shared with
Shape how important it is for women to perform monthly self-breast exams.
"I perform a
self-exam every month," she told Shape. "If you don’t keep an eye on
your body and its changes, how can you expect a doctor to do it once or twice a
year? Take care of your body: It's the one thing that will be with you on this
entire journey, from beginning to end. I was only 12 years old when my
grandmother found out she had breast cancer. I remember thinking it was a death
sentence. But she had a mastectomy and survived—and lived many wonderful years
longer. She taught me that we fight to live and feel and love, and that you
can't let one experience define your existence."
