Let me tell you, folks, Susan Lucci is absolutely crushing it at 71! The beloved All My Children star recently dropped by Closer Weekly to spill the beans on her killer workout tips, just as she’s rolling out her new activewear line with QVC. If you’re wondering how she maintains that incredible energy and fitness level, buckle up because I’m about to break it down for you. Spoiler alert: her high-intensity Pilates sessions might leave you gasping for air. Watch the video above to see how Susan keeps herself in top shape!
How Susan Lucci Stays in Shape: The Pilates Pro Chair Magic
Now, here’s the thing. After spending some time with Susan, it’s no surprise that she’s looking and feeling amazing. This woman has been a Pilates devotee for two decades. No matter how jam-packed her schedule gets, she always carves out time for her trusty Pilates Pro Chair. And let me tell you, this gadget came into her life just in time—right before she hit the dance floor on Dancing with the Stars. “I wake up about a half-hour early every morning,” Susan revealed to Closer. She added that this routine started way back when she was starring in her iconic soap opera. “I wake up, grab a cup of coffee, and jump straight into my Pilates Pro Chair before I even fully wake up!” It’s like her mornings are a well-oiled machine.

Admitting the Struggles: Finding Time for Fitness
But let’s get real for a second. Susan wasn’t always this disciplined. She admitted that, like most of us, it took some time to commit to such a rigorous routine. “I thought I couldn’t fit anything else into my life between raising kids, running around, and my career. I just thought I couldn’t handle it,” Susan confessed. “But here’s the thing: in just 25 minutes, I can get a full-body workout. And no matter what happens for the rest of the day, I know I’ve done something good for myself.” Talk about making every minute count!
Eating Clean: Susan’s Mediterranean-Inspired Diet
In addition to her rock-solid exercise regimen, Susan is all about maintaining a healthy diet. And guess what? She doesn’t even call it a diet. It’s more like a way of life. “I follow a Mediterranean-style diet. It’s all about eating clean. Lots of superfoods,” she explained to Closer. If someone had told her years ago that she’d choose fruit over a cheeseburger or ice cream sundae, she’d never have believed it. But here we are, and Susan’s proof that healthy eating can become second nature.

Genetics and Gratitude: Susan’s Secret Weapon
Of course, Susan gives a nod to her genetics, crediting her mom for her fabulous looks. “My mother looks fantastic!” she gushed. “We’re dealt a genetic hand, and our DNA is what it is. All we can do is take care of it day by day. Trying to do everything at once is just too overwhelming.” And honestly, Susan makes it look so effortless. Whether it’s her workout routine, her diet, or her positive outlook, this woman is truly inspiring.
