The Fit 5: Tips to Feel (and Look) Like a Star!

PRACTICE MIND CONTROL

To stay centered, Heather Graham looks inward through transcendental meditation. “I do it every day,” says The Hangover star. “It balances you out – it makes you feel a lot less stressed.” The technique, which allows the mind to quiet itself through the relaxed repetition of a mantra, was introduced to the actress by director David Lynch. And Graham also admits that she’s “really obsessed with yoga. I feel like mentally and physically it’s amazing.” – Scott Huver

VENTURE OUTSIDE

Warm weather means one thing to : getting outdoors to exercise. “I do lots of different activities,” says the actress. “I do yoga, I work out with a trainer, I hike and play beach volleyball – I’m definitely into volleyball.” And last month, the Revlon spokesmodel took to the streets of New York City for a good cause: to raise funds for breast and ovarian cancer research at the EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women. – Lisa Marsh

COUNT TO 8

For AnnaLynne McCord, a workout that’s quick but effective fits into her busy lifestyle. And the 90210 star demonstrates an eight-minute total-body shape-up from Barry’s Bootcamp in L.A. in Self magazine’s July issue. “My schedule can be so hectic that a fun, short workout like this is perfect for me,” says McCord of the routine that combines several moves – including a squat press and plank row using 5-10-lb. weights – with short spurts of cardio. “I loved it!” she raves about the workout, which builds lean muscle by doing it four times a week. – Jennifer Garcia

GET ON THE 'BAND' WAGON

Looking good in a bikini is all in a day’s work for Marisa Miller. Her trick to toning up for a two-piece? Resistance bands. “I can throw the bands in my suitcase and do it in my hotel room and make it easy,” says the Victoria’s Secret model. Another bonus: “They’re pretty simple, but they’re good for toning your butt, your legs, your arms – anything,” says Miller, who fits in 30-minute sessions, including leg lifts and kicks, five times a week. – Jenny Sundel

DON'T LET AGE DAUNT YOU

Michelle Pfeiffer wasn’t anxious about baring her body in the romantic film Cheri. “I take really good care of myself and I eat well and I exercise,” says the 51-year-old actress. “I am happy with the way that I look but it takes a lot of work.” To stay svelte, the mom of two runs and eats a balanced diet. But that doesn’t mean she never splurges. “When I’m not working, I’m going to eat a big bag of potato chips like everyone else,” Pfeiffer admits. – Paul Chi
