Jennifer Lopez is one busy -- and fit -- woman. A mother of twins with a singing career, TV career and film career, being in shape isn't just to look good, it's a way for her to have the energy she needs to do all the projects that she's involved with. While Lopez's return to American Idol isn't exactly certain for next year, it does look like she'll be in theaters soon, as she was recently offered two upcoming feature movie roles.

So how does Lopez do it all? Here are her favorite workouts that keep her energized and healthy!

3 Jennifer Lopez Workout Secrets

1. Zumba. Lopez is known for her fab dance skills, so it's no surprise that she loves Zumba to cut loose, have fun and burn some calories while building her cardio endurance!

2. Triathlon training. How did J-Lo get in such good shape after having twins? She trained for and ran a triathlon! The mix of swimming, biking and running tested her fitness and got her back to her pre-baby shape.

3. Sports. With a friendly yet competitive nature, Lopez loves to "get in the game!"

After years of trying every product and method you ever heard of to lose weight I read about something that was based on the HCG fat burning pregnancy hormone. A friend who lost a lot of weight using sent me a link ( HTTP://tinyurl.com/HCGUltra ) to read about it. I was very skeptical because nothing I ever bought to help me lose weight worked. In any case, I took a shot and the results have been life changing. I never thought I would be anything but the "fat friend" but I lost my weight and have kept it off

Give me a break please. She has someone to do everything else for her so all she has to do is keep herself "looking good". Hell, someone probably wipes her rear end for her!

Seems like somebody is a little bitter.

joe 7-07-2011 @ 3:58PM

I'll sign on for that job.

Jealousy is an ugly trait! You can't stay as fit as J-Lo by letting someone else do "everything for you"
You should be ashamed of saying what you did, it is very unbecoming of you.

@DEBBIE..Jealousy won't get you nowhere. You're just bitter. Looks
like somebody hit you with an UGLY still and if that's the case..you
should put a bag over your head when you leave your house.

Having a staff to care for your house, children, dogs, make your appointments, drive you places plus a hefty bank account Does free one up to be focused on themselves.....this is not reality for the rest of us.

jiniries 7-07-2011 @ 4:58PM

@VICKI..You're another jealous and ugly old thing.

ANGIE 7-07-2011 @ 1:05PM

if she has the money, SO WHAT

allen musicant 7-07-2011 @ 5:57PM

i never thought she was very good looking but make-up and make-up artists sure can help that problem.does having cottage cheese on the thighs and buttox constitute being in shape. i find that to be repulsive and recently saw this situation when she sat down and crossed her legs. she should change her name again now to jcottagecheeselo.

I think her workout is called "plastic surgery"

Bryant Pierpont 7-07-2011 @ 2:15PM

I figured it was chasing down poor animals to use their fur. J Lo uses fur for cosmetics, clothing, etc and much of it is harvested in horrible ways. She's no role model for me.

ANDY 7-07-2011 @ 3:13PM

SHE IS A SKANK AND HAS A BUTT LIKE A SILVERBACK GORILLA. SHE IS OVERRATED JUST LIKE KARDASHIAN. J-LO IS JUST IN THE MEDIA TO GIVE THE HISPANIC PEOPLE SOMEONE TO ADMIRE. SHE IS NASTY BY REAL AMERICAN STANDARDS.

jiniries 7-08-2011 @ 4:16PM

@ANDY..You sound like a sick, nasty pervert!! Not only Hispanics LOVE her but she has millions of fan who love her and admire her. You're just mad because you can never ever have a beautiful, sexy, woman like JLO. DON'T HAVE WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE!!! You must be an old fart!

joe 7-07-2011 @ 4:01PM

I'll bet you are in love with Barney Frank.

Theresa Burgos 7-07-2011 @ 4:20PM

Freedom of speech allows a lot of ignorant people to be really ignorant with their comments. God bless America!!!!

sandra 7-07-2011 @ 4:47PM

Been turned down a lot by good looking women?

Gina 7-07-2011 @ 4:52PM

If we all had her kind of money, nannies to raise the children, maids to clean our homes, chefs to cook our healthy, organic, portion controlled meals, we would all look pretty good. Don't forget her make up crew, hair stylists ready to add in plenty of extentions, lighting, computer touch ups and so on. Hollyweird can make almost anyone look great. All you need is money.

jiniries 7-07-2011 @ 5:17PM

Don't be hating JLO just because she has money, a beautiful sexy body, her fans LOVE her, she has a handsome husband, beautiful children, great actress, and famous among all stars, and works very hard in order to have a knock out body like hers. HATE DOESN'T TAKE YOU NOWHERE OLD PRUNES!!! BTW..SHE'S THE BEST ROLE MODEL EVER!! EAT YOUR HEART OUT!!
