Ming-Na Wen Reveals The Superhero Workout Routine That Keeps Her Fit In Her 50s
Ming-Na Wen didn't master her workout routine overnight, but the workout routine she's landed on has her looking incredible in her 50s. In 2019, Wen tweeted, "A week of ups & downs. It's not been easy. Experimenting with exercise & diet where I don't feel hungry," showing that the timeless actress has put a lot of time into developing her routine.
According to Superhero Jacked, Wen distinctly works out three times per week, with at least two additional days set aside to do other activities that she actually wants to do. Wen's philosophy is one as old as time: that you should work hard but play harder, and her workout routine reflects this. This is why she doesn't workout six or seven days a week; she lets herself breathe.
Moreover, Wen is an advocate of squats. "These are easy to do anywhere, anytime! And often, the most dreaded exercise to do," Wen wrote in an article titled "Start Squatting!" on her website. Still, she shared an anecdote in this article about how the muscles that squats build up are important, and how they helped her with an ACL injury.
