Rebel Wilson stuns fans with incredible weight loss transformation
Australian actress Rebel Wilson has promised to make 2020 “The Year of Health” – and it seems that she’s already raking in the benefits of her healthier lifestyle.
The 39-year-old took to Instagram to let her followers know that she will attempt to “avoid sugar and junk food” after heavily indulging this past holiday season.
She also posted a photograph of her out for a walk on a beach in her activewear – and fans were quick to heap praise on the star’s visible weight loss.
“I’m so proud of you!! You look fantastic already with your weight loss,” one said.
“You look great, you look absolutely beautiful beforehand and still now. Such a role model,” another agreed.
“You already look amazing! Killing it! Any positive changes are good changes,” said another fan.
Wilson revealed that she was making a commitment this year to improve her health.
“Okay so for me 2020 is going to be called ‘The Year of Health’ – so I put on the athleisure and went out for a walk, deliberately hydrating on the couch right now and trying to avoid the sugar and junk food which is going to be hard after the holidays I’ve just had but I’m going to do it! Who’s with me in making some positive changes this year?”
Wilson went through a weight-loss transformation in 2019 after hiring a celebrity trainer Gunnar Peterson, who revealed she trained at least four times a week.
“When she’s in town, she’s a solid four days a week,” the LA-based fitness expert told US Weekly. “She is such a cool person to work with.”
He then revealed the secret to her success, which is workouts based on “peripheral heart action”.
“It’s forcing the blood to go from upper extremity to lower extremity sequentially so that you elicit a response from the heart rate … you’re creating an aerobic response in what would normally be viewed as anaerobic movements,” said Peterson.
These workouts could range from an intense session on a treadmill to a demanding HIIT class.
