At 55, Lauren Sanchez is living a remarkable chapter of her life — from flying to space to preparing for her wedding with Jeff Bezos, the world's fourth-richest man. Despite her demanding schedule as a journalist, author, and philanthropist, Sanchez has prioritized health and fitness, maintaining a toned and youthful physique through disciplined workouts and mindful nutrition. Lauren's Workout Routine Sanchez trains with celebrity fitness coach Wes Okerson, who also works with Bezos.

I used to run marathons and I was never as fit and toned as I am now.' She credits trainer Saul Choza for her transformation, adding, 'My a* has lifted.'* Her sessions alternate between mat and reformer Pilates. Toned Arms at 55 One of Sanchez's most talked-about features is her sculpted arms — firm, strong, and free from signs of aging.
