Eva Longoria has just revealed the formula behind her sculpted bikini body, and it’s probably on your children’s Christmas wish list this year…
“I used to run, but I can’t run anymore,” Eva shared during her appearance on The Ellen Show. Despite the setback, the former aerobics instructor (yes, it’s true) didn’t give up cardio entirely; she just traded in joint-jarring runs for something a little less strenuous.
And while your first guess might be cycling or swimming, Eva’s latest obsession is actually jumping on a trampoline.
“It’s so fun y’all and it’s good on my knees because I’m an old b*tch,” she joked.
So, does it really work? Take one look at the toned actress’ abs and you’ll be convinced — which is precisely what the audience of The Ellen Show did.
As an image of Eva in a bikini appeared on the big screen, she commented: “that’s what the trampoline does”. Well, there you have it.
Since discovering the joyful exercise, she’s even convinced a few others to join her. One of her latest recruits? Celeb pal Kerry Washington.
Sharing to Instagram, the Scandal star posted herself attempting a trampoline workout, captioning the video: “Thank you @evalongoria for the #SisterhoodOfTheTravelingTrampoline. I promise I will keep jumpin’ so I can get on your level. You make it look easy!!!!!”
While any backyard trampoline will do, the exact one Eva uses is by the New York fitness studio The Ness. And it ain’t cheap, selling for $499 USD. For something similar, Big W sells the Fila Fitness Trampoline for $59.

What do you think about a trampoline workout? Have you tried it before?
Eva looks great and exercising on a trampoline certainly would be easier than running.
That looks like fun and also really hard.
haha ‘the Ness’ has my name! : D
We have a trampoline in our hard. I best be bouncing on it.
I’d love to be able to do this, but my ankles can’t handle trampolines anymore.
No haha looks like fun…some would need a good strong bra with that (ouch)
Or just a decent sports bra!
Naa. I know one girl with massive breasts. She wears double sports bra just for a short gentle jog. Bouncing kills. Trampoline…no
I think this looks easier than it is?? I dont think I could do it.
Agree!
Amazed a trampoline would get the results of running. Eva does look amazing.
Interesting. My local park has trampoulines.
Where is this Unicorn park of which you speak?
I would think she also does strength work – she has more muscle definition than just abs.
I have one of those trampolines but I’ve never done a workout like that on it.
Wow! i have a mini tramp that I use regularly but I don’t use it like that..
She.Is.Fit
Hmmm it’s time to actually get on my mini tramp instead of constantly looking at it and feeling guilty.
Eva looks fab but I would expect that if she is a fully qualified aerobics instructor.
She looks fantastic, very fit and strong, still a size 0 (U.S sizing). This definitely has it’s advantages over running with less jarring on the joints. It can be done at home, so great in lockdown situations and safer as well.
I could start excising at work but I’d be waiting in line for my turn with all the children 🙂
Exercising that is 🙂
I had a trampoline when I was younger and I ended up losing a lot of weight because of it without even trying!
would love to know the exact workout!
Same here! Eva looks to be using some weights…
Inspired by Eva’s video, I pulled out my mini-trampoline this morning and gave it a whirl. It was fun and it’s staying out for a while so I can keep practising.
I like your motivation!
I love trampolines!
My mum had one similar when my sister and I were kids I thought it was so much fun. Haven’t tried it as a adult but wouldn’t mind giving it a go.
She looks amazing!
My eldest loves going to those trampoline parks with her friends. Maybe I should join them 🤭 lol
See, I find a trampoline very jarring on the knees
I have tried it but didn’t keep it up -Certainly works for Eva
Ooh I am not sure about this one for me. I would probably feel sick on the second bounce. I am sure she also eats really well so she would look great anyway.
I’ve always wanted one of those mini trampolines but don’t really have anywhere to store it.
She looks great. I would love to try this, but I already have a few unused exercise equipment to get me moving.
This definitely sounds like fun!
That looks like a fun way to excercise
I love my mini tramp! Got me through lockdown and helped with my rehad after an ankle injury. So much fun to put some tunes on and have a dance on it.. Can’t recommend it enough!
She does look good.
