How could we not have Batman’s ex-wife on SHJ?
I was actually typing “wife” but then decided I should probably fact check.
Well, anyways, it’s not just Batman’s ex-wife (and by that I mean Ben Affleck), Jennifer Garner is also a total babe and incredible actress that has been in countless amazing movies.
That includes her own Elektra movie, and also Daredevil [as Elektra] with Ben Affleck.
And now here she is on SHJ.
Jennifer Garner Stats:
Height: 5’8
Weight: (approximate) 133 lbs
Age: 46 years old
Jennifer Garner is technically above average height for women celebs at SHJ.
I guess we’d consider her tall, but we’ve been seeing more and more around 5’7-5’8.
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 amongst the tallest (even taller than the 5’7-5’8), are ladies like Gwendoline Christie, Gal Gadot, and a few others – with 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 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 to be utilized by anyone and everyone!

Jennifer Garner Diet and Nutrition
Jennifer Garner’s diet and nutrition plan was given to her by trainer Kelly LeVeque.
In an interview with ET Online Garner confirms this, stating:
“I’ve been following Be Well by Kelly because I was getting ready for a movie where I had to look a certain way. I actually have really liked the diet, so I’ve stuck on it,” she shared.
Lucky for us, US Mag did an interview with Kelly about Garner’s exact dietary guidelines.
LeVeque states:
To help the 46-year old actress navigate her late night cravings on set, LeVeque offered this advice: “I might pull back on the alcohol. I might say ‘I know you love your red wine but let’s not have that,’” LeVeque tells Us. “I also might add a little more protein so she feels more full because that lack of sleep is gonna increase her hunger hormones. So it’s really just ways to prevent her craving, crashing and sort of feeling bad about yourself.”
She continues by saying something I also really want to share:
“I teach clients how to balance their blood sugar. Old science told us the best way is eat five to six small meals a day,” she explains. “If you understand biology, you don’t need to eat that often and you can actually eat specific foods that shut down hunger hormones and elongate your blood sugar curve so you don’t spike up as high and crash down as hard. You’re less hormonally hungry and more satisfied on a biological level.”
I like this because I’ve had a bunch of members of The SHJ Army become hesitant of intermittent fasting (which we’ve seen used by Hugh Jackman, Terry Crews and a few other celebs), because they think they HAVE to eat a ton of meals a day.
This isn’t the case.
Sustainability is the most important part of choosing your diet plan, which is why we revolve our Academy Nutrition Classes (Monks, Samurais, Hunter Gatherers, Minimalists, Greek Gods, Spartans, SuperHumans, and Vikings) around finding the diet that works for YOU.
Keep in mind we have a ton of other resources for you to utilize right here on the site. I’d start by checking out our Nutrition Pillars, and then possibly even thinking about taking advantage of any of our programs.

Jennifer Garner Workout Routine Research
Not only does Jennifer Garner diet with nutritionist Kelly LeVeque, she also trains with a coach we’ve seen before at SHJ.
I hope you guys like dance!
The trainer I’m referring to is Simone De La Rue.
In an article by Pop Sugar we get some more information:
Jen has been working with Simone De La Rue for four years now, and the combination of dance, cardio, and strength training has helped her feel strong and energized — and happy! “If you can find a workout that makes you smile, DO IT!!!” she said in her caption, gushing about how much she loves the BBS workout.
Simone’s workouts are a combination of dance, weight training, and and cardio.
So expect to see all of that in the workout routine!
Garner also makes sure to stay active when she’s not training with Simone, whether that’s walking, hiking, or doing fun activities like we see with a lot of the celebs at SHJ.
For that reason we’re going to have a 3 day split which I’ll program you some cardio and weight training, and it’ll be your job to incorporate some dance and fun activities on the other 2+ days per week!
Let’s do this.
