Best known for his role as “McSteamy” in the hit drama Grey’s Anatomy, Dane is now starring among an all all-star cast in Valentines’s Day. The movie opened this Friday in conjunction with the lover’s holiday.
The flick’s incredible cast might be the fittest group of actors and actresses ever to appear in one movie. Others starring alongside Dane include Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Patrick Dempsey, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Ashton Kutcher, Taylor Lautner, Julia Roberts, and Taylor Swift.
Here are a few tips from Dane:
“Embrace the morning. Morning dictates everything, including the mood, scope, and pace of the day. Fuel up with a nutrient-loaded breakfast (an omelet will stifle your appetite for hours). Look forward to the morning and your chances of conquering the day skyrocket. ‘I’m out of bed before the alarm goes off,’” Dane told Men’s Health.
Studies have shown that people who eat eggs for breakfast consume less calories throughout the day then those who don’t. Packed with protein and nutrients, they don’t call it the “incredible, edible egg” for nothing.
“Going to the gym and looking for a specific result is a short-lived existence, as opposed to going to the gym and adopting it as a lifestyle. Develop a routine, because it’s much harder to break it if you have one. If you have no routine, you have nothing to break, so discipline goes out the window.”

As resident vampire hottie on the hit CW drama Vampire Diaries, actress Nina Dobrev has to spend a decent amount of time in body-hugging attire – be it her modern-day leather pants and motorcycle jackets or her 19th century corseted dresses for her historical flashback scenes. Constantly keeping in such great shape for the show has earned Nina Dobrev well-deserved attention – she made Maxim’s Hottest Women of Fall TV and graced the cover of Seventeen’s first-ever special fitness issue. She also won big at this month’s Teen Choice Awards – bringing home the coveted surfboard for Choice TV Fantasy/Sci-Fi Actress (her show and fellow castmates took five more) and compliments on her best-dressed blue-carpet look.
Nina Dobrev isn’t tight-lipped about how she stays fit – in fact, she enthusiastically shared with Seventeen, “It’s yoga. I love it! I’m a yogi.” Nina sometimes works out with a personal yoga instructor, but mostly attends regular classes 3 to 4 times a week. “It takes a lot for me to sweat, so I go to hot yoga,” she says. “It’s a workout, and at the same time, it’s for my mind. It gives you that meditative state and its 90 minutes where you can get away from the world and just be, and exist in the moment. I need yoga. It’s part of my life and I can’t imagine not doing it.”

For Demi Moore, getting older has improved her self-esteem and body image, and reduced her workout and diet obsession. Perhaps that is how she snagged younger hottie, Ashton Kutcher. You can check out Demi’s hot 47-year old body in her latest film, Happy Tears, which premiered in theaters this weekend.
There is no doubt that Demi Moore is blessed with good genes, yet also plagued with plastic surgery rumors. Despite your opinion on whether or not Demi has gone under the knife, everyone knows her hot body requires workout maintenance. In her 20′s, under the guidance of personal trainer Rob Parr, Demi was a workout-aholic. She would bike or hike up to two hours per day, six days a week. The morning before she gave birth to her second daughter, Demi completed a 22-mile bike ride. Although Demi exercised intensely in her younger years, she recently realized her workout motivation was misguided. She was not working out to feel healthy, but instead she says “I was trying to overcome my insecurity.”
Today, Demi Moore adheres to a more reasonable workout schedule. Demi enjoys swimming and rollerblading at her Idaho home. She also has her own weight room and sometimes trains with martial-arts expert, and ex-boyfriend, Oliver Whitcomb. By focusing on how she feels, instead of how she looks, Demi is now in the best shape of her life. Demi also works out with personal trainer Gregory Joujon-Roche, founder of Gregory Joujon-Roche’s Holistic Fitness. Gregory’s workout center focuses on creating overall well-being, a goal perfectly in-line with Demi’s new way of life.

Kristin Davis is best known for her role as the eternally optimistic romantic, Charlotte York, on Sex and the City. However, in her latest film, Couples Retreat, also starring Kristen Bell, Kristen’s challenge is not to find love but instead to work through relationship troubles. She somehow manages to look better than she did in Sex and the City – perhaps in part to her workout and diet routine.
Kristin Davis acknowledges that Hollywood often seems obsessed with weight, but she doesn’t succumb to the pressure. She focuses on being healthy and having energy, instead of being skinny. She says there was a point when she realized, “You know what? I’m just not going to be the thinnest actress out there. There’s always going to be a thinner girl. I don’t think you get parts based on being the thinnest girl. I don’t think you fall in love based on being the thinnest girl. It sounds simplistic, but I think we forget that.”
Kristin Davis on Her Diet
With regards to diet, Kristin Davis believes it is important to have a positive body image and a balanced attitude towards food. She says, “I went through periods when I said I can’t have this or I can’t have that.” But now, she says “I don’t deprive myself.” Kristin recommends eating what you want, but in moderation. “My main issue is to never let myself get too hungry. I make sure I eat every three hours or so, mostly proteins, good carbs, and veggies and salads.” When Kristin craves sweets, she doesn’t deny herself. She found that by giving herself permission to indulge, she actually reduced her cravings.
With a diet and workout lifestyle like this, we can’t wait to see what she’ll look like in Sex and the City 2.
