Jane Seymour shares her daily fitness and diet routine at age 74

Jane Seymour has been in shape for decades without the trendy diet or marathon workout routine.

“I’m the size I was when I was a ballet dancer now at 17,” the 74-year-old actress told Fox News Digital.

“I try to stay at the same weight, but I don’t get hooked on it. I grew over the years, but never got over 10 pounds. When I was playing Wallis Simpson, who had to be madly thin, I’m losing my healthy weight.

Jane Seymour says she shows her age to women and tells them, “I’m not pretending to be 20 when you’re 70.”

Even in the celebration moments, Seymour keeps her healthy habits in mind. It was announced at the beginning of June Her detective show “Harry Wild”, Updated with Season 5 on Acorn TV. She is also the host of “Relative Secrets” and is a series that premiered earlier this month about revealing family secrets and dark mysteries.

“I hardly ever have breakfast,” the “Dr. Quinn” alumni explained her diet.

“There’s liquids and vitamins. There’s this vitamin combination with collagen. It’s in the morning, in the tea, coffee or water. And at lunchtime, it’s a great meal. I like salmon, shrimp and grilled vegetables.

The star says that it’s steak that she “least never eats” but she makes an exception.

“Occasionally, I eat a little bit of filet steak. I have some slices too. I’m not against it. But when I eat a lot of fish and vegetables, I feel good. I grow a lot of food in my garden. When I bake vegetables, I add a little bit of olive oil and sometimes sprinkle it with salt.”

Like everyone else, Seymour has her guilty pleasure. She loves anything “crunchy and salty” flavor. To satisfy her cravings, she eats “Crispy sweet potatoes.”

“It feels like you’re eating a bag of chips, but it’s actually sweet potatoes,” Seymour said. “I’m taking raw pumpkin seeds, and I want to toast with a bit of tamari light (soy sauce with low sodium, gluten-free) and in a non-stick pot. I put it in the pot until it swells and pops. The pistachio nuts are also my favorite snack.

Former Bond Girl Also, it is important for her to continue active daily. But she listens to her body every day about what she needs.

“I work with women…it’s almost like physical therapy, but it’s training. I have Girotonics and some Pilates – I think it’s not even believed that a lot of floor work even though I’m on the bench. But everything I do can be done by anyone else in a hotel room, in the living room, in the garden, where I can put my yoga mat. I do pilates legwork. This is like doing some of my ballet. You can use your own weight or ballet bar. ”

“I also believe in lightweight,” she shared. “I have an 8 or 5 pounds of weight in each hand. I do arm work while I’m on my legs. And the beauty of Pilates, Girotonics, or ballet is that it can all do it properly.

“I’m very careful about using the right techniques,” she said. “If you can’t do too much, if you can’t stretch too much that day, it’s fine. I don’t want to get myself injured so I do as much as my body is doing comfortably. I’ve come back a long time ago. That’s why I listen to my body.”
