Julie Benz’s Unique Weight Loss Diet Plan and Fitness Exercise Program Secrets

August 13, 2010 by Joanna

Julie Benz, the American actress best known for her role as Rita Morgan on Dexter is taking on the challenge of becoming a Desperate Housewife as she joins the Teri Hatcher, Eva Longoria and Marcia Cross on the hit series. But since she can’t share the juicy plot lines of her new show, she gamely discusses another topic – her fitness secrets. Read on as the new Desperate Housewives star gives the details on the kind of fitness exercise program and diet plan she has that’s making her one hot Housewife.

Julie Benz’s Fitness Training Exercise Program

While celebrities like Brooke Shields completely shun any fitness exercise program that involves weights, it’s all that stars like Julie Benz use. The Housewife star shared that heavy weightlifting is her tried and tested fitness training exercise program. “There’s this misconception that if you involve lifting heavy weights in your fitness exercise program, you’re going to bulk up,” Julie Benz told People. “As a woman, I can attest that you don’t bulk up – you actually trim down with this kind of fitness exercise program.” And the 37 year old actress is stepping up her fitness training exercise program now that the killer TV series has begun airing its fourth season with heavy weight lifting exercises as one of the key components to her four day exercise program.

But there’s another fitness exercise program that the star is into which she considers her secret fitness exercise weapon. Unlike most celebrities who turn to Yoga exercises or Pilates exercises, the star confesses her fascination with pole dancing as a form of exercise. Pole dancing is a form of performing art, a combination of dancing and gymnastics. It involves dancing sensually with a vertical pole. It’s now regarded as a recognized form of exercise and can be used as both an aerobic and anaerobic exercise.
In fact, the actress has recently bonded with Playboy Hugh Hefner’s former girlfriend when Julie Benz confessed to being a fan of the latter’s Sport Pole. “I wanted a stripper pole and I tweeted about it and then Kendra Wilkinson, who is coming out with her own line of poles, sent me one so I got lucky. She even signed it. It’s called a Sport Pole. I love it! It’s such a great fitness training exercise.” ” And Julie Benz has certainly been getting quite the sexy fitness exercise as of late with her super hot lesbian stripper role on “Desperate Housewives.

This Desperate Wife’s Weight Loss Diet Plan

Aside from her fitness exercise program, Julie Benz also recently gave some insight into what a daily meal diet plan looks like for her on a busy schedule. To start her day, she has a big breakfast since she has to be on her way to filming by 4am. Below is a sample of her diet plan:

Breakfast

Coffee, Fiber One cereal with yogurt and then later an egg and veggie burrito with fruit.

Lunch

Tuna fish with brown rice, avocado with a squeeze of lime, cooked broccoli and water with lemon.

Snack

KIND brand fruit and nut bar of almond and apricot.

Dinner


Persian chicken with a salad and a glass of pinot grigio and for a light ‘dessert’ a cup of chocolate chip mint tea.
Julie Benz also takes in diet supplements. She likes to drink Intelligent Nutrients’ organic Intellimune products to up her antioxidant intake. “I am stricter on set because I don’t want to have the sugar crashes so I stick to healthy choices like hard-boiled eggs, apples and peanut butter, and vegetables and hummus. We work fifteen hour days…” Julie Benz also admits to OK! that sometimes cast mates also need an energy boost. “Everyone eats everything. I have even seen some women eating doughnuts. Sometimes you need the energy!”
