Paulina Porizkova Admits She Cut Back on Pilates Because of Her ‘Wonky’ Hips
In a recent Instagram post, the popular author posted a 29-second clip set to Sia’s hit song “Unstoppable” that shows her doing shoulder presses with dumbbells and working her arms on a machine with the help of a trainer.
“Keeping in shape after menopause takes a lot of effort. Especially when you have curvy hips,” she confessed in her lengthy caption.
“I’ve had to cut back on my Pilates since I got back to shoot #beyondtheedge jungle because my hips weren’t cooperating,” she admitted. “Instead, what I’m doing, for now, is some serious PT. I found a great personal trainer at my local Crunch, Shelly, who replaces hip PT with strength training. But because I have traveled a lot, my results are not consistent.”

At the end of her post, she added the hashtags #betweenjloandbettywhite, #workingout, #unstoppable, #strength, and @agingaintforsissies before she joked, “Yeah, my gym looks like a bad disco.?.”
