While some stars are airbrushed on the covers of magazines, other celebrities work hard for their sculpted bodies. CafeMom shares a few secrets of celebrity trainers so that you, too, can rock a hot red-carpet bod.

Check out the featured CafeMom video (via Self.com) to zero in on your abs, arms, thighs and butts in the privacy of your own home -- and with no high-tech special equipment. Hand weights and/or resistance tubing is all you should need. Add to your regular workout routine 10 reps of each exercise, and do two sets. Who knows, you might end up resembling the likes of Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel and Jennifer Lopez.

And then there's Michelle Obama -- now, she could teach you a thing or two about getting fit.

Ashlee Simpson gives an interview to Shape magazine and talks about engaged life (it's fantastic), the tabloid gossip (it doesn't bother her anymore), and her workout, which generally takes place at her home and consists of using some weights and machines. However, her trainer added that much of her workout doesn't use equipment -- it uses her environment. She runs down her stairs, does lunges around her pool, runs back up, and does squats. Now if only we all had flights of stairs and fabulous pools to exercise around ...

Sex and the City hottie Jason Lewis tells I'm Not Obsessed his trick for keeping fit -- he grills all his food. Tasty! Grilling, I mean. Not him. Well, maybe him. I'm flustered!

Jennifer Garner is featured in the May issue of Self and talks about her love of the farmers' markets during the summer as well as how much sunscreen she wears on a daily basis. Not only is she fit and beautiful -- she a smart and healthy role model, too!

Here at That's Fit, we're constantly telling you what we think about things, but sometimes it's nice to know what you think. So from time to time, we'll ask you a question. Don't be afraid to speak up -- we love feedback.

There's no doubt about it -- 2007 was a year for fitness. So many celebs shaped up and showed off their moves and I say good for them -- they're influencing thousands to get off the couch and get fit.

So my question for you is: Who was your favourite fit celeb of 2007? The choices are listed below. My personal choice? I think Felicity Huffman rocks -- running a Triathlon on the day of the Emmy's? That's fairly awe-inspiring if you ask me.

Twelve Fit Celebrities of 2007

Award-winning actress and tabloid target Jennifer Garner is supporting the new cause -- the flu shot. She's recently joined the American Lung Association's Faces of Influenza education campaign as the national spokeswoman, and she's speaking out on the importance of getting your flu shot. Lois and Clark actor Dean Cain is also promoting the cause.

Garner, 35, says "One in three children get influenza, and more than 100 children die every year from this disease -- these are facts that no mother or parent wants to hear."

Have you had your flu shot? If you have frequent contact with children or senior citizens, it's a must. And it's not too late to get it, though sooner is better.

I've often wondered how celebrities manage to stay so slim and toned all the time. Is there something in that Hollywood water? If it because they can afford personal chefs? Is it all the calories they burn from running from the paparazzi? CNN recently did an article on celebrity trainers and how they keep those Hollywood stars looking so good all the time. The secret? There isn't one.They work just as hard as we do to lose a few.

In fact, have you ever gotten done a workout at 4am? Jennifer Garner has -- on many occasions. Have you ever had a deadline (other than a self-imposed one) by which you need to have lost a few pounds by? Movie stars do -- all the time. Yes, they might have a person trainer all to themselves riding their butt around the clock, but would you even want that? Really?

The baby weight's gone and now Jennifer Garner is buffing up for a new movie by using the weight machines at the gym, according to these photos on Fitsugar. As the Fitsugar people point out, it's nice to see a celebrity that actually tried to tone their body rather than letting themselves shrink to skeletal proportions.

Jen's got the right idea -- the best way to get a hot bod is through resistance training. Sure, cardio will melt the fat, but using weights will increase your metabolism and will make those problem areas look great. If you're still hesitant to use the weights, check out these great tips that Tanya posted a few weeks ago.

In this celeb-obsessed world,we're always interest to know what celebrities think of everything, from politics to war to other celebrities and everything in between. So it's no surprised that we're also keen to know they're eating and exercise habits, especially since they all seem to be so svelte.

So when I saw this quiz from Fit Sugar asking which celebrity diet philosophy I agree with, I had to see which celeb I identified with most when it comes to healthy living. Turns out its Scarlett Johansson, who says, "I'm not really the type of girl who goes jogging at 6 a.m., but I eat well and I walk a lot." I also agree with Gwen Stefani, who says "It's simple math: You put this much food in, you burn that much working out."

Which celebrity do you identify with?
