Jennifer Lawrence is one of our “OG” women at SHJ.
When you’re Katniss Everdeen and Mystique…and well..when you look like she does: it’s hard not to notice.
Jennifer Lawrence’s workout and diet [originally] showed up at SHJ when I first started researching some women.
Now we have over 250 celebrities researched, over 500 workout routines built and hosted, and I even wrote a book on The Hollywood Physique and Performance…
But, time flies by, and Jennifer Lawrence still looks just as good as ever!
Jennifer Lawrence’s Stats
 Height: 5’9
Weight (approximate): 135 lbs.
Age: 29 years old
Lawrence is actually really tall.
She falls into the grouping of the tallest celeb women we’ve seen at SHJ, actually.
Normally the average height we see for women is around 5’4-5’6 with ladies such as Jennifer Aniston, Margot Robbie, Olivia Munn, Alicia Vikander, Sophia Bush, Tatiana Maslany, Evangeline Lilly, and a ton of others.
But then there is also that taller range, and among the tallest (even taller than the 5’7-5’8), are ladies like Gwendoline Christie, Gal Gadot, and a few others – with Phoebe Tonkin, Gabrielle Union, Brie Larson, Nina Dobrev, Daisy Ridley, and so many more coming in around that 5’7-5’8 range.
And, let’s not forget the shorter ladies of SHJ like Ariana Grande, Scarlett Johansson, Mila Kunis, Emilia Clarke, Lucy Hale, Julianne Hough and a good handful of others.
But, either way, don’t worry.
I write these routines for anyone and everyone.

Jennifer Lawrence Diet and Nutrition
Jennifer Lawrence loves food.
No, like I literally Googled “Jennifer Lawrence Diet GIF” and genuinely had a hard time deciding which one to choose because they’re all that freakin’ good.
One thing I’ll tell you is that Lawrence loves fries. She’s talked about them in multiple interviews.
She also loves telling everyone about her love of food; and asking if there will be food.
In an interview with Wong, Lawrence’s former trainer, Elle Mag shares this about her diet:
“In Jennifer’s trailer, we would always have some full-fat Greek yogurt, some dark chocolate, some hummus and vegetables,” Wong says, adding that they’d stock her refrigerator at home with the same, “It’s always food that is working for us rather than against us.”
And in an interview with Glamour, Lawrence states:
“I hate saying, ‘I like exercising’. I want to punch people who say that in the face. But it’s nice being in shape for a movie, because they basically do it all for you. It’s like, ‘Here’s your trainer. This is what you can eat’. I don’t diet. I do exercise! But I don’t diet. You can’t work when you’re hungry, you know?’
Basically what she’s saying is she likes to have her entire fitness regime planned out for her…I should tell her about The Academy…
And to end off on a fun note of quotes from Lawrence on her diet and nutrition, she says:
“There’s that Kate Moss quote that’s like ‘Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels’ and I can name a lot of things that taste better than skinny feels: bread, potatoes… a Philly cheesesteak and fries.”
So, it’s safe to say Lawrence eats pretty intuitively to sustain her diet and physique.
We see a lot of celebs opt for a sustainable approach like this.
That’s why our Academy Nutrition Classes (Monks, Minimalists, SuperHumans, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Greek Gods, Samurais) revolve around helping you find the specific diet that is right FOR YOU.
Of course, there are a lot of reasons to HAVE the strict guidelines.
We’ve seen a lot of celebs opt for specific restrictions.Â
For example: Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Benedict Cumberbatch and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting(something I use daily as well), Mustafa Shakir and Madelaine Petsch are vegans, Brandon Routh and Frank Grillo opt for paleo, and tons of others utilize their own variations as well.
And, that’s just to name a few celebs from each, by the way.
You can check out our Nutrition Pillars for more information and articles on all of the above and more.
Curious where over a hundred celebs fall in their dietary choices ranging from High Protein and Keto to Vegetarian, Vegan and Intermittent Fasting? Want exclusive celeb meal plans? Check this out.

Jennifer Lawrence Workout Routine Research
Lawrence mentioned wanting to punch the people that say “I like exercising” in the face.
But, that doesn’t mean she doesn’t exercise.
She just doesn’t want to hear you say you like it…
Teen Vogue had a lot to tell us in regards to Jennifer Lawrence’s workout and training for The Hunger Games.
They let us in on some secrets from Celebrity trainer Dr. Horrigan. Here’s one quote I’m sure you’ll all like to here:
All you need is 20 minutes a day and the willingness to work hard.
And Dr. Horrigan says to get that cardio going! Â Here’s more of what he has to say:
Utilize running, cycling (road, mountain, classes, or simply a regular stationary bike), or various aerobic classes such as dance classes and hiking
Continuing with:
Aim for 20 minutes of high intensity cardio following a 5 to 10 minute warmup, this can be a very hard stationary bike ride, runs up a hill, etc.,
Alright, so intense activity. Â Hitting the cardio hard! Â Got it.
In the interview with Elle Mag that we took a look at when we went over Lawrence’s diet has her former trainer Wong hitting the same notes, so we’re definitely onto something here.
Some other things to take away from the interview with Dr. Horrigan were: strength training utilizing circuits, consistency, mentality (motivation), and yoga on the off days!
Ah, we love yoga here!
US Magazine has a similar interview letting us know to keep the cardio up, and make sure to also incorporate bodyweight movements.
Sweet! I think we’re ready.
