Jane Seymour has made an intriguing revelation about her fitness regimen at the age of 75.
Seymour maintains her vitality through a long-standing routine centered around consistent movement, balanced habits, and an awareness of her personal boundaries.
The star of “Harry Wild” candidly shared that she stays away from yoga, finding her competitive nature would drive her to surpass everyone else in the class.
“When it comes to staying fit, I include a mix of light weightlifting, walking — preferably brisk or on an incline, Pilates, and Gyrotonics in my routine. When those aren’t possible, I turn to the basics, like sit-ups and ballet-inspired exercises,” she explained to Fox News Digital.
“I often return to my ballet roots with a complete barre routine. My diet is generally Mediterranean, and while I limit starches, I don’t exclude them entirely, avoiding the mindset of dieting. My alcohol consumption is minimal, and I abstain altogether while filming.”
Seymour said the secret to staying active isn’t pushing herself to do every trendy workout — it’s knowing her own limits.
“I’ve had to actually tell myself that when I go into a group class, especially something like yoga, that I have to tell myself I am not going to win, because I’m way too A-type…”
She continued, “I want to win… Which means that I can never have done yoga, and I will decide that I could turn myself into the pretzel like that person. No. No, I cannot. I’ll end up in the hospital or something, so… My approach is to try everything, but do it the way that I know I can. So, I listen to my body.”
That mindset has helped fuel Seymour’s seemingly endless energy — something her longtime friend and former “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman” co-star Joe Lando knows all too well.
More than three decades after becoming one of television’s most beloved couples, the pair have reunited for Season 5 of “Harry Wild,” which returns to Acorn TV with bigger mysteries, higher stakes and a new character who could finally complicate Harry’s love life.
Seymour stars as Harriet “Harry” Wild and also serves as an executive producer on the hit show.
Their on-screen reunion is rooted in a friendship that’s outlasted Hollywood odds.
When Fox News Digital asked how they’ve stayed close all these years, Seymour reflected on the bond they built while filming the hit Western drama.
“Wow, I mean, that’s a really interesting question,” she said. “We worked together for seven years and we kind of fell for one another in the pilot, rather famously, for a brief time. So, we knew each other really, really well, better than on screen.”
The pair eventually realized they were better off as friends, but Lando said one thing about Seymour has remained exactly the same since their “Dr. Quinn” days.
“This inexhaustible flipping energy,” he said. “She just goes, goes and goes.”
Comparing Seymour to the Energizer Bunny, Lando recalled filming long production days while the actress was pregnant with twins.
“45, pregnant with twins. We’re doing 12-hour-plus days sometimes,” he said. “I’d start feeling myself getting a little worn, and I would look over at her… suck it up, get out there and do the job. And that hasn’t changed about her.”
Seymour credits her seemingly endless energy to one simple thing — loving what she does.
When asked where her legendary stamina comes from, Seymour didn’t hesitate.
“I know people keep asking me why, and I just say, because I love what I do,” she said. “I just do, you know, and then when I stop, I sleep.”
