A while back I wrote of the possibility that Kelly Ripa was pregnant. I actually called the show and they said it wasn’t true. But that didn’t stop so many of you writing in saying you thought the same exact thing. Well, this month’s Shape cover seems to disprove this idea entirely. Look at how great she looks! Wanna know how she does it? Here is her daily workout:
- Squat and rotational row; works butt, legs, back, and biceps
- Rotational lunge; works legs and core
- One-legged hip lift; works hamstrings, butt, and abs
- Sit-up to stand; works abs and legs
- Push-up with rotation; works abs, arms, upper back, and chest
- Inchworm and push-up; works chest, arms, and core 20 minute cardio: alternate jumping rope with 30 seconds of jumping jacks
- 20 minute cardio: alternate jumping rope with 30 seconds of jumping jacks
She wasn’t always a work-out kinda girl. She promises if she can restart at a later age, then anyone can.
“If I can begin an exercise program after such a huge break (10 years), anyone can.” “On the show hair and makeup people are paid to make me look great, while I just sit there, but the results I get from exercise come from my hard work, no one else’s. That gives me an enormous sense of accomplishment.”
The older I get, the more interested I am in these types of magazines. That heading “Get flat abs and a firm butt by June 1st” is very intriguing to me.Tell me more! Tell me more! 
EATING DISORDER. Thats all I have to say….
I think she looks great. I saw her last night on The David Letterman, and her arms were defiantely tone. Her tan was glowing. Having a body like that takes tons of sweat, training devotion and a limited diet. I envy her motivation, I wish I were as motivated.
She is anorexic. You are crazy if you believe she looks like this from working out. She has the body of pre-puberty boy. How can this be attractive?
I think that she is perfect the way that she is. I would just assume them not airbruch her, so I can see the real Kelly.
kELLY LOOKS BEAUTIFU
L……STOP HATING ON HER……STOP DRINKING THAT HATORADE
TOO DAMN SKINNY!!!!!
Lots of airbrushing. Where are the stretchmarks she had when I saw her at the beach?
cover shots can sometimes be taken months in advance of publication.
She is beautiful. Get over yourselves! Why is everyone so negative?
Kelly looks great for having three kids! And three nannies. And a cook. And a personal trainer. And a maid. And a personal asst. And a photoshop expert on her payroll.
I cannot stand this woman. Ever since the whole Clay Aiken drama went on, I think that she was displaying her TRUE self that day. UGH!
Who wants a work out that makes you look like you have no butt?
She admitted on Live that her outtie belly button was airbrushed out. And that she worked out like a demon for that cover.
If I may add my two cents… Kelly Ripa is just so typical of how really strange our culture is. Just try thinking outside the box for five minutes. One thing is for sure, she certainly is playing into this whole celebrity B.S. thing. Personally, I once considered her mildly refreshing based almost solely on the fact that she was brave enough to bare her (normal) outie bellybutton. Seems she cannot even do THAT any more.
She didn’t ask them to do it. Infact she was kind of shocked that they did airbrush it without her concent, obviously sending her the messege that it was ugly or something. She is fine with it now, even though it made her a tad self conscience before.
Theses comments seem like a bunch of out of shape people ripping on someone clearly in peak shape. Get over it, she looks fabulous and anyone ripping on her is just a jealous person lost in high school.
