Eva Mendes has been ranked in FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World for several years, which is not surprising at all because she is such a hottie thanks to her nice shape and pretty face. However, Eva said she really hates going to gyms as she finds them too ugly and noisy.
The Ghost Rider star, who has recently appeared in the underwear ad for Calvin Klein, revealed that she can’t stand working out in the gyms because of their atmosphere which is very ugly and noisy, so she chooses to exercise outside instead.
The 34-year-old actress, who once said keeping a body in shape is quite difficult and she has to work out to maintain her body, exercises once a week and she mostly does it outdoors.
Eva Mendes said, “I work out once a week doing light weights but on the whole I find gyms so grey and so ugly – I don’t want to listen to bad techno music on a treadmill.”
Eva continued, “I prefer to go running near my house in Los Angeles with my dog or my neighbour, which I do around five times a week. And I go uphill too, which is hard!”
The 2 Fast 2 Furious actress also admitted that she never watches what she eats because she wants to compensate for the exercise right after eating which she considers them bad habits.
“In the car on the way here I had six chocolate chip cookies! But that means extra time working out later. I’ll say to myself, ‘I can eat this pizza right now, but I will have to add an extra 30 minutes to my exercise today’. Sometimes it’s worth it, sometimes it’s not.” Eva told Britain’s Glamour magazine.
I just can’t believe it how she stays in good shape while she exercises only once a week. It probably takes her 12 hours per day!
