Charlize Theron is modeling bikinis for The Perfect magazine. In a new social media post, the star, who turns 50 in August, shows off her ageless body in a skimpy swimsuit. \u201cJust another Tuesday,\u201d she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does the star approach health and wellness as she approaches her big birthday? Here are her top diet and fitness habits.<\/p>\n
Charlize uses a mathematical approach to exercise. \u201cI\u2019m always calculating my activity,\u201d she told Harper\u2019s Bazaar<\/a>. \u201cIf I haven\u2019t been moving a lot, I can\u2019t eat a lot. Or maybe it\u2019s a cheat day. But I\u2019m honest with myself.\u201d<\/p>\n Theron is all about eating and drinking green. \u201cI have juices and kale and green salads every day. When I\u2019m eating healthily, getting enough sleep and not drinking alcohol, that\u2019s when I look my best. That\u2019s when I\u2019m happiest, and I think it shows,\u201d she told Red Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n When Charlize needed to gain nearly 50 pounds for a role, she turned to one cheat food in particular. \u201cI ate a lot of everything, but my drug of choice is potato chips,\u201d she said<\/a>. \u201cEverywhere. I had a bag in the car, a bag in the bathroom, a bag in the kitchen, a bag on the couch, a bag in my trailer. Everywhere I went, there was just a bag.\u201d<\/p>\n Theron is a bg fan of power yoga. There is a laundry list of reasons to do yoga, explains Harvard Health<\/a>. \u201cResearchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years gained less weight during middle adulthood,\u201d they said. \u201cPeople who were overweight lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) than those who did not. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.\u201d<\/p>\n
