Megan Fox has been turning heads for decades with her stunning looks and sculpted physique. But at 40, the secret to her toned figure isn’t just good genes. The actress follows a disciplined Five-Factor Diet, eating five small meals a day and working closely with her trainer to stay in peak shape.

Balancing motherhood and a demanding career cannot be easy. However, Fox relies on an extremely structured, nutritional diet that energizes her, keeps her feeling active, and looking youthful.

“I’m always completely sober. I don’t even drink a glass of wine. I don’t ever smoke. I don’t drink coffee. I’m super strict with my diet, and I never deviate,” she said.

The diet is designed by her trainer, Harley Pasternak. As per this, Fox religiously follows the ‘Five-Factor Diet’. She eats five small meals throughout the day to keep her metabolism up and running. Of course, her actual diet is extremely clean and strictly gluten-free.

For Fox, leading a healthy lifestyle and staying clean is more about her higher consciousness than her body. During an interview with Glamour 25, Fox revealed how self-care, for her, is a means to connect to her super consciousness and higher consciousness. Not many know that this glamorous actress is actually very spiritual.

Fox is one of those people who believes that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. She never skips it, typically opting for oatmeal, egg whites, and almonds to start her day.

However, when she is running short on time, she makes a nutrient-packed smoothie of seasonal berries, tea, almond milk, and protein powder.

She is a big advocate of Japanese cuisine. For lunch and dinner, she typically enjoys salmon with edamame, miso soup, and cucumber salad.

Alongside a strict diet, she also follows a great workout routine, also designed by trainer Harley Pasternak.

Fox has never believed in spending hours sweating it out at the gym. Rather, she focuses on short, quick workouts that target exactly what she needs.

As per US Weekly, even her trainer admitted that Fox did not enjoy regular workouts.

"She’s someone who naturally doesn’t love working out traditionally,” Pasternak said.

Fox typically engages in resistance training with her thrice a week. The workouts are generally quite short, focusing more on her posture and muscles. However, due to multiple pregnancies, they also focused on strengthening her upper back. She often performed exercises like:

• Superman stretch
• Dumbbell rows
• Back rows
• Cardio on a Helix Lateral Trainer

She typically combined upper- and lower-body movements, giving herself minimal rest to keep her heart rate elevated. Her approach is simple yet effective, and the results speak for themselves.
