Mila Kunis is a Nerd Queen.
Don’t believe me?
Whether it’s her roles that range from Jupiter Ascending and Ted all the way to Family Guy, That 70’s Show, and Oz the Great and Powerful; Mila Kunis proves to definitely have a fun range of portrayals.
Not to mention the fact that she still kills it in her non-nerd roles!
Oh, and she was also a HUGE World of Warcraft nerd!
All the meanwhile having an incredible physique…!
World of Warcraft didn’t work that way for me…
Mila Kunis Stats:
Height: 5’4
Weight: (approximate) 115 lbs.
Age: 33 years old
Kunis stands in right around average height, if not just below.
She’s exactly the same height as Olivia Munn, with the average height more-so being around 5’5-5’6 with women like Katie Cassidy, Jennifer Aniston, Margot Robbie, and many more.
She’s short than Gal Gadot, Jennifer Lawrence, and Zendaya – but actually taller than women like Emilia Clarke, Scarlett Johansson, and Black Swan co-star Natalie Portman.
As always though, don’t worry about these comparisons, they’re just for fun.
This routine will be good to go for everyone!

Mila Kunis Diet and Nutrition
As always, I like to include the different diets and workouts that our SuperHuman actors utilize for different roles.
We obviously know there’s no ONE plan to meet every single goal, which is exactly why we have so many different options for customizing Workout Paths and Nutrition Classes within The Academy.
That being said, Kunis followed an extremely strict dietary plan when getting in Black Swan shape for her role with Natalie Portman. She was only allowed to eat a mere 1,200 calories a day, and dropped down to about 95 pounds!
This is NOT something we’re going to be doing to look like Mila Kunis.
Kunis states:
“I’m a huge foodie, I love food. But when people say, “I can’t lose weight”, no no no, you can. Your body can do everything and anything, you just have to want to do it.”
And also:
“My glass of wine and I are besties.”
Kunis sticks to a diet consisting of mainly low glycemic carbs (oatmeal, brown rice, sweet potatoes), protein (chicken breast, fish) and essential fats (omega 3’s like flax oil, fish oil) which keeps Mila in great shape all year long.
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, & Eat Fat, Lose Fat) 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.
For example: Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Hopper, 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.

Mila Kunis Workout Routine Research
Like many of the celebs we see at SHJ Kunis revolves some of her training around her roles.
On an average week she is training 3 days a week, while also adding in activities that get her moving – and on her training weeks that revolve around a role she ups that to training 5 with the additional movement.
Shape.com tells us:
She enlisted the help of celebrity trainer Brian Abercrombie, the man who whipped Gerard Butler into shape for his Adonis like role in the kick ass action movie 300. Apparently Abercrombie works his clients out with a system called P.A.S.E (Power, agility, strength, Endurance) focusing on the body as a whole, rather then on individual parts. The workout consists of six movements, done in circuits for 40 minutes with no rest.
For that reason we’re also going to have one of the days I program revolve around one of Abercrombie’s workouts that I was able to find for you guys.
One of the days he trained Kunis with, that is!
I was also able to find this about Kunis:
Apart from the time she spends in the gym Miss Kunis likes to be active outdoors, jet skiing in the summer and snow boarding in the winter. Although it would sound to most of us that she follows a fairly regimented fitness routine, Kunis claims to have quite a relaxed, non obsessive approach to her diet and figure compared to most other celebs.
So, really, she’s like many of the other superhero celebs we see.
She knows that a fit lifestyle revolves around sustainability, like the overall approach we utilize within The Academy as well.
It reminds me of an article entitled “How Many Days a Week do you [REALLY] Have to Workout”, which I wrote not too long ago. It really is an eye opener for those people who thing they have to train 7 days a week, over an hour each day.

Day Three: Kunis and Trainer Workout from Shape.com
You’ll Need: A box/step or other raised surface, a TRX Suspension Trainer, a dumbbell, an olympic bar and a medicine ball.
How it Works: This workout combines strength and endurance, consisting of six movements done in a circuit for 40 minutes with no rest.
STEP 1: Walkover Pushups
How to do it: Start in a plank position with both hands on a box, step or other raised surface. Step off with one hand moving to the floor and one hand remaining on the box. Do a full pushup and then return to the first position and alternate to the other side. Complete six reps on each side.
Tip: If you’re a beginner, try these on your knees.
STEP 2: Mountain Climbers
How to do it: Start in a plank position and then pull one foot up and underneath you so that your knee is at chest level. Alternate foot position rapidly, as if running in place. Complete six reps on each side.
Tip: Keep your butt level and don’t bounce up and down.
STEP 3: TRX Row
How to do it: Grab the handles of your TRX (palms turned inwards) and walk down into an inverted prone position. With your back straight and ribcage up, pull your hands to your ribcage from the extended position. Complete six reps.
Tip: You can also lower a bar on a smith machine or a squat rack, climb underneath and do the same thing.
STEP 4: Bootstrapper Squats
How to do it: Take the handle of a dumbbell in both hands so that they are in an overlapping baseball bat grip. Straighten your arms and forward fold, keeping your legs straight. With both your arms and legs straight, set your elbows on your knees and maintain contact throughout the motion. As if dragging the weight, drop your butt toward your heels and bring the lagging weight up and under your chin. Still with us? That is one rep. Complete six reps.
STEP 5: Stir the Kettle
How to do it: Hold an olympic bar with both hands and place one end of the bar on the floor into a corner of a wall. Raise the other end of the bar up to chest level and lean into it slightly, still holding it with both hands. Make a big full circle, as if stirring a large kettle (hence the name). Complete six reps in each direction.
Tip: Use a towel so that you don’t damage the wall.
STEP 6: Medicine Ball Slam
How to do it: Hold a non-bouncing medicine ball with both hands over your head. With arms fully extended and feet hip-width apart, slam the ball into the floor. Drop as you go into a full deep and proper squat and catch the ball as it comes off the floor. Bring the ball back to the raised position. Complete six reps.
Tip: If you don’t have a medicine ball, a tough basketball or soccer ball will help you learn the movement. Make sure you slam the ball a few inches in front of your feet so the ball doesn’t rebound and hit you in the face.
Day Four: Activity Day
Like I mentioned earlier, Kunis stays active a lot and cuts back on her training days the majority of the year (when not prepping for a role).
For that reason, you could add in another day of this routine on your activity days, OR you can GET ACTIVE!
