Eva Longoria strikes fierce poses and shows off her incredibly toned physique

The actress makes it look easy

Eva Longoria knows her angles. The actress recently starred on the cover of Women’s Health and she made an epic behind-the-scenes video of her striking all the amazing poses. While some people still have the grace of a baby deer, Longoria confidently wrote in the caption, “Strike a pose, there’s nothing to it.”





The hilarious and toned star knows how to keep it real and also shared a video of her walking up a “steel hill” in a white robe and face mask. She told Women’s health she doesn’t want to put a facade up for social media. “Sometimes people are scared to be themselves, but I am who I am” the Flamin Hot director said.

Longoria is 46 and her body is serious goals. She told Women‘s Health she works out for her mental health and loves to rebound, which is a technique for trampoline workouts. Longoria got into the routine at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and she bounces for 30-45 minutes a day and fills in her 60-75 minute workout with strength training.


The fitness enthusiast works with personal trainers Julia Brown and Grant Roberts and said she uses “very heavy weights” and wears a heart rate monitor. “I feel like my body changes the most when I do that—I wear a heart rate monitor, and I can see my heart rate spike from just doing a heavy bicep curl,” she told the outlet. Longoria also does kettlebell flow classes and yoga.



Of course, the Desperate Housewives actress doesn’t have a six-pack just from working out. She is also an intermittent faster and clean eater. Luckily for Longoria, she doesn’t eat sweets or chocolates and hates bread. “Olives, pretzels, popcorn, potato chips—that’s my jam,” she explained. “I don’t like sweets or chocolate, and people hate me for it. Bread too—I hate bread. I’m never tempted by the breadbasket.”


Longoria only eats between the hours of 11-7 pm and has coffee for breakfast before doing her workout, and then makes breakfast for her family. The cookbook author prepares all three meals for her husband, José Bastón, and their son Santiago which she finds therapeutic. She’s been using more plant-based ingredients similar to the ones she grew up with. “I grew up on a ranch where we ate what was on the land—when it was squash season, we ate squash for three months. It gave me such an appreciation for where food comes from: It comes from the ground. Beans are a big source of protein for us. I love making portobello tacos and jackfruit tacos, and cauliflower fried rice,” she explained.
