The ‘Mommy-Daddy Workout’ Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake Do Together

Jessica Biel has a lot going on these days. The actor, mom, and restaurateur has her hands full making sure her family and her business are both running smoothly–which, not surprisingly, often leaves her with little free time. But the Gaiam for Kohl’s spokeswoman recently told SELF that she has some tactics for fitting in a short yoga practice or circuit-training workout when she can. And sometimes, that means a gym date with husband Justin Timberlake.
“An ideal day for me would be to start off with some sort of fantastic yoga practice in the morning–that way, I get it out of the way and get it done and have my day starting with clarity and space and time for me”, Biel tells SELF. “That would be ideal”. Of course, it doesn’t always happen that way, she says, and sometimes late night workouts are her only option.
“I’ve definitely been known to be in the gym late night, even 10 or 11 P.M. Keep in mind, that is ‘late night’ for me these days”, she says. Her nighttime workouts are usually either a circuit workout “down in the gym”, or a yoga practice in the bedroom. “Sometimes, you just gotta do it and fit it in when you can”.

When they can fit it in, Biel and Timberlake love to sweat it out together. “I actually love mommy-daddy workouts, they’re the best. It doesn’t always happen, but it’s so nice to have a partner when you’re doing a workout. It’s something my husband and I really enjoy doing together–we both are workout enthusiasts”, Biel says. “When we can, we make it happen”.

Biel and Timberlake’s partner workouts typically consist of circuit training. “We’ll work with a trainer and just do different circuits and do different types of cardio training or sprinting, just different things depending on what we’re working on and goals we’re trying to hit at the time”, Biel says.
