Ever wonder how Gwyneth Paltrow gets her banging bod? Probably not, it’s pretty obvious: grueling workouts and minimal food. In the past Gwyneth has advocated eating just one meal a day, not eating for 12 hours, and giving up sugar, wheat, dairy, alcohol, and caffeine – along with all processed foods, of course.

We’re not endorsing any of that nonsense, but we’ll give the lady props for a good workout. We caught Gwyneth heading to the gym this morning in New York, where the makeup-free actress looked like one of us regular folks. Almost.

Speaking of keeping it real for the commoners, we were surprised to see that Paltrow had a reasonable, almost promotion-free Goop newsletter today. Aside from starting out by quoting Webster’s Dictionary, it was a DIY guide to reflexology. No, not where to find the most spiritual reflexologist for your next vacation in Majorca, but how to do it yourself. Could the halcyon days of the $52 leather flyswatters be behind us?
