Jane Seymour reveals why she avoids yoga at 75 despite staying fit

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Jane Seymour has a surprising fitness confession at age 75.

Seymour relies on a routine that has kept him energized for decades; A routine based on movement, moderation and knowing your limits.

The “Harry Wild” star joked that she avoids yoga because she’s “too type A” and said she’ll try to outdo everyone in the class.

“I try to do a combination of fitness, light weights, some walking, jogging if I can, or going up and down a hill. I do Pilates and Gyrotonics, or if I can’t do any of that, I do sit-ups and ballet exercises as usual,” she told Fox News Digital.

“I’m actually going back to my ballet roots. I do full barre. I generally follow a Mediterranean diet. I stay away from starches, but not completely, because I never want to think I’m on a diet. I drink very moderately. I don’t drink at all when I’m filming.”

Seymour said the secret to staying active is not to force yourself to do every trendy workout, but to know your own limits.

She continued, “I want to win… That means I can never do yoga, and I’ll decide I can turn myself into a pretzel like that person. No. No, I can’t. I’ll end up in the hospital or something, so… My approach is to try everything, but do it the way I know I can. So I’m listening to my body.”

This mindset helped fuel Seymour’s seemingly endless energy; It’s something her longtime friend and former “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman” co-star Joe Lando knows all too well.
