So, it’s okay for everyone to just admit to being a complete Fanboy / Fangirl for Emma Watson..
No, really, if you don’t admit it, we don’t believe you anyways.
You guys are probably familiar with my Dark Mark tattoo, showing off the fact that I’m a die hard Harry Potter fan (having read through the series near a dozen times) – and I’m so happy to have our first ever star from the series make it to SHJ.
I, myself, am a No-Maj that is just pretending to be a Death Eater (although in reality I’ve got Gryffindor in the Sorting Hat test countless times).
But, before I fanboy anymore, it’s a good time to point out the fact that Emma Watson has always shown off a slender and toned physique.
Also just appearing as Disney’s own Beauty and the Beast was a huge feat, so it’s only right that we give her some recognition.
And, hey, does anyone have any interest in seeing Daniel Radcliffe’s routine in the future?
Emma Watson Stats:
Height: 5’5
Weight: (approximate) 115 lbs.
Age: 27 years old
I think I may have a shot…
Watson stands in right around the average range for women, which is roughly 5’5-5’6ish, right there with ladies like Olivia Munn, Katie Cassidy, Jennifer Aniston, Margot Robbie, and a bunch more.
She’s taller than Scarlett Johansson, Emilia Clarke, and Natalie Portman, but shorter than women like Gal Gadot, Zendaya, Jennifer Lawrence, and Sophie Turner.
But, don’t worry your little Hermione loving hearts out – if you’re not the same height and weight range as Emma, this routine is still for you!
Emma Watson Diet and Nutrition
One thing I immediately found out about Emma Watson’s diet was that she’s a big believer of starting her day off with a lot of protein.
That’s one thing we encourage women to do within The Academy Nutrition Classes (Vikings, Samurais, Hunter Gatherers, Minimalists, Monks, and Spartans), when incorporating intermittent fasting – and something that proves to be extremely beneficial for a lot of people to actively make a point of.
Emma told Marie Claire:
“It’s my special thing, I make guacamole, salsa, and scrambled eggs, and then I cook the tortilla. It’s pretty simple, really, but yummy.“
Other than Emma Watson’s morning protein fix, she’s a big fan of eating “real food”. She stays away from anything that has added preservatives and isn’t what we would generally think of as the healthier options.
This is something that can be done when we switch over to follow a dietary guideline set like paleo, mediterranean, or even nordic. But, we know combining the nutrition pillars at SHJ is very simple, and sustainable for everyone.
But, a couple fun facts we learn from Business Insider about Emma are:
- She sticks to a diet full of lean protein, whole grains and unsaturated fat.
- But she also indulges in pizza and Nutella every now and then.
It’s okay to occasionally be human – that’s why we’re creating SuperHUMANS here at SHJ.
Emma Watson Workout Routine Research
Emma Watson loves being active. Along with hiking, cardio, and other fun activity, she also manages to get in other forms of training as well.
Delish.com tells us:
Rather than logging hour after hour at the gym, Watson gets in 30-minute workouts when she works with fitness instructor Emily Drew. Drew’s program focuses on three areas: stretching, strength and stillness. Stretches help Watson’s posture, keeping her looking long and lean, while the strength circuit combines leg, cardio, and ab exercises.
Stretching, Strength, and Stillness.
We like all those things.
We just did an article “What You Need to Know Before Starting Yoga“, AND released our Jedi Path within The Academy for yoga and meditation – so this is definitely something we get behind within our strength training and nutrition (adding yoga to the mix)!
Oh, and did I mention Watson is a yoga instructor as well?
Following the stretching, strength and stillness trend brings us to more about what she does with Drew:
The bulk of the workout comes in the strength training. The first circuit is two eight-minute reps of lunges, squats and step-ups, followed by six minutes of stability ball exercises to tighten the core.
Finally, Drew emphasizes the importance of stillness to cap off the workout, which helps de-stress and find balance. She has Emma Watson do a few minutes of yoga, followed by stretching again, and ending with three minutes of breathing meditation.
