Actor, beauty entrepreneur<\/a>, woman with arms and abs chiseled from marble: Jennifer Aniston knows that time is precious, and even a few minutes of a workout is better than nothing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love a quickie workout,\u201d Aniston previously told<\/a> Vogue<\/a> when waxing lyrical about Pvolve, the low-impact functional fitness method programme she co-owns. \u201cEven a body part like I\u2019m dreading\u2014like glutes\u2014I can get through in that amount of time\u202615-minute sessions can work the entire body in a short amount of time, which is a game-changer. I also love that you can break a beautiful sweat during it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Best believe Jennifer Aniston is a woman of her word, too. Photographed<\/a> aboard a yacht sailing around the lush island of Mallorca, Spain, Aniston was on deck doing some planks in a bikini. In a low plank, she balanced on her forearms and tiptoes and kept her core engaged and abs taut. It was a perfect plank: neck in a neutral position, her back forming a flat and level line from her head, to spine, to heels, and her elbows directly under her shoulders. Belly button was pulled inward, glutes and thighs squeezed. She wore a black string bikini top and low-rise coral bottoms, with her hair in a loose, low ponytail\u2014an appropriate look for tanning while you tone, anyway.<\/p>\n

Aniston was joined on deck by her boyfriend Jim Curtis, as well as former Friends co-star Courteney Cox and Pedro Pascal.<\/p>\n

Aniston has spoken passionately<\/a> about her love of quick resistance-based workouts, which she prefers to longer, coristol-raising intense sessions. She keeps Pvolve\u2019s\u00a0P.band<\/a> in her car\u2014\u201cYou can put that on and just move if you have a 5-minute break\u201d\u2014and loves a speedy workout with the\u00a0gliders<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt used to be pounding, pounding, pounding; You had to get 45 minutes to an hour of cardio; otherwise, you weren\u2019t getting a workout,\u201d she previously told Vogue when reflecting on how she used to exercise in her 20s, when she wasn\u2019t looking forward to the grueling monotony. \u201cNot only do you stress your body, you burn out; Who wants to do that at all?\u201d After a back injury in 2011, she found Pvolve, and now sticks to bitesize routines that she can get in whenever. Sometimes, that\u2019s on a yacht.<\/p>\n

A plank is an easy, accessible exercise that requires on equipment, but still engages multiple muscles all at once. It builds core strength, protects the lower back, and improves posture. Specifically, you\u2019re targetting those deep core muscles like the transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis, and obliques\u2014all important if you want those stacked abs like Aniston. Planking regularly also trains your body to balance better, and over time, will benefit back pain and your joints.<\/p>\n

Aniston is not the only one making sure she prioritizes some movement on vacation, either. Last summer, Dua Lipa was spotted doing a headstand<\/a> (that\u2019s \u201csirsasana\u201d in Sanskrit) on a paddleboard in Ibiza. That\u2019s another great core-strengthening and balancing exercise. Kylie Jenner, Alix Earle, Jake Shane, et al were also spotted enjoying some reformer pilates sessions aboard the famous Alo yacht off the coast of Sardinia, Italy.<\/p>\n

This writer isn\u2019t one to skip a session either, so I reached out to the woman whose workouts\u2014first on Instagram, and then, as her community grew, an app and IRL all-women gym in North London\u2014have given me those quick energizing hits of movement on vacations that I need to feel like me: Ciara Madden<\/a>, founder of Body By Ciara<\/a>. \u201cAs someone who trains six times a week when at home, working out on holiday is a necessity,\u201d she says. \u201cAnd while that sounds extremely boring, it really is a little 20-30 minutes in the morning, before the breakfast buffet, that makes all the difference.\u201d<\/p>\n
