Jennifer Aniston does a lot of cardio which helps to burn calories and fat, if done correctly. Below is a great cardio workout you could take to one of Jennifer’s favorite machines: The Elliptical.
(NOTE: Make sure you choose an elliptical machine that incorporates your arms into the workout as seen in the picture below. Utilizing your arms will burn anywhere from 9-75% more calories).
