Challengers: Zendaya’s fitness routine for the upcoming movie
In preparation for her role in “The Challengers,” a film revolving around a romantic entanglement among tennis players, Zendaya underwent three months of rigorous training alongside Brad Gilbert, a seasoned professional in the sport. Speaking to Elle, she confessed, “Though I’m not particularly fond of exercising and don’t eagerly anticipate it, I committed to the regimen as my character is meant to embody a tennis professional, a role I needed to portray convincingly.”
Zendaya openly admits her absence from the kitchen scene. “I simply don’t enjoy following recipes, and honestly, I’m too laid-back for it,” she shared with Harper’s Bazaar. “I rely on services like Postmates to have meals delivered. It’s liberating to have the freedom to order whatever I crave.”
Zendaya shared her dietary quirks with Cosmopolitan, revealing the challenge of being a vegetarian with a lukewarm affection for vegetables. Despite her herbivorous diet, she confessed to a penchant for sweets, often bypassing main courses for ice cream, much to the chagrin of her assistant, as disclosed to Harper’s Bazaar.
While not a fervent breakfast enthusiast, she added to the same publication if she does indulge in the morning, it’s a Nutella-infused affair, preferably with pancakes and berries. On the hydration front, she eschews conventional choices like coffee, energy drinks, and water, opting instead for more flavorful options like juice, particularly favoring brands like Tropicana or simple lemonade, as noted by Harper’s Bazaar.
While Zendaya isn’t particularly enthusiastic about traditional gym routines, she occasionally engages in strength training workouts. Sharing a lighthearted moment from one such session, she captioned a photo with “Workout mood…”. As per insights from the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training offer numerous benefits, including reducing body fat, preserving and building lean muscle mass, and improving calorie burn efficiency. Additionally, strength training contributes to strong bone development, weight management, enhanced quality of life, better management of chronic conditions, and improved cognitive abilities.
Zendaya expressed her love for dancing and choreographing routines to Justine Magazine, highlighting it as her preferred form of exercise. She encourages others to discover activities that they find genuinely enjoyable, suggesting options like Jazzercise or any other activity that brings joy.
