NEW YORK — Gwyneth Paltrow uses “elastic stretch bands” and a “wooden workout stick” to stay in top shape, her personal trainer Tracy Anderson has revealed, according to femalesfirst.co.uk. The 39-year-old actress is a client of fitness guru Tracy Anderson and the exercise expert has lifted the lid on the workout regime that keeps Gwyneth slim. Tracy says the “Iron Man 2” star follows her “Method” regime six times per week, which involves the use of elastic stretch bands, a wooden workout stick, dumbbells and ankle weights to shift the pounds. Tracy insists the reason why Gwyneth looks so great is because she is very “disciplined” and is prepared to put in the hours and hard work to look good. — Agencies
