Babe alert.
C’mon, you knew I’d say it.
I was recently updating J-Lo and Lili Reinhart’s workouts for Hustlers and realized Constance Wu made an appearance as well.
She is heating up the screen!
She’s from the hit TV show Fresh Off The Boat, and has recently landed big roles in Crazy Rich Asians and Hustlers!
Before you know it she’ll be starring in something like Marvel or Star Wars, I’m calling it now!
And, I’m also hopeful!
Constance Wu Stats:
Height: 5’4
Weight: (approximate)
Age: 37 years old
Constance Wu just makes it to the average height we’ve seen among women at SHJ.
Although she does fall at the shortest range of it.
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.

Constance Wu Diet and Nutrition
Constance Wu has her own motto when it comes to her nutrition.
Similarly, she’s pretty straight forward when it comes to her training regime as well (as you’ll see).
Wu states:
“One piece of chocolate is pleasure. Ten pieces of chocolate is stress,”
I don’t think we really have to break that down to fully understand that she means it’s okay to indulge a bit, as long as you know the limit and know everything is fine in moderation.
Which is really where celebs find this long lasting sustainability when it comes to their diet regimes.
Sure, some of them have these crazy transformations, but other are able to sustain their physiques over the course of a career (and often times after their transformations, once they know how to do it and get themselves in the groove).
Continuing on moderation and indulgences, Wu says this in an interview with Health Mag:
My weakness is…
“Kettle chips. But I don’t think they’re really awful, because they’re real—potatoes, oil and salt.”
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.
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.

Constance Wu Workout Routine Research
As I said before, Constance Wu’s training regime is very straight forward.
She’s a runner.
Here’s what she told Health Mag:
My healthiest habit is…
“Running. When I’m not working, I run, like, six miles a day. I listen to old Broadway musicals, like The Sound of Music or A Chorus Line. If I’m doing a longer run, I’ll listen to a podcast. There’s a podcast about puns I like called Punk Assed. It’s pretty funny!”
Which is right to the point.
So for this one we’re going to be working on getting you up to 6+ miles of running.
Scared yet?
We’ve seen a lot of women celebs utilize running (especially outside as opposed to jumping on the treadmill) to get in shape, but for the most part none of them immediately jump to saying they run 6 miles every day they’re off!
So we’ll work our way up just like we would any other program that was a bit more advanced.
Get your running shoes ready because Constance Wu has to change hers out every six months (or less)!
Let’s do this.

Constance Wu Workout Routine
Training Volume:
5 days per week / 8 week program
Explanation:
For this one we’re going to be doing an 8 week Couch to 10k. If you didn’t know, a 10k is equivalent to 6.2 miles so this will bring us right to our mark for Constance Wu training. From there you can follow it up and get out there and bang out 6 miles at a time if you’d like!
Sources:
I’ll be combining resouces from Runners World, Active, Livestrong and RunDisney to build this routine.
HIIT Explanation:
HIIT is High Intensity Interval Training and is generally best done on a treadmill for this being that we’re devoting a day to other cardiovascular work such as swimming, cycling or some other format (which could even be walking or Elliptical training).
Here are two formats you should consider utilizing:
Variation One:
One Minute ON: Run 5.5-9mph
One Minute OFF: Walk 2.5-3.5mph
Variation Two:
Thirty Second ON: Sprint 7-10+mph
One Minute Thirty Seconds OFF: Walk 2-3.5mph
