TV Guide had a story called “The Bod Squad” which profiles several TV stars who have incredible physiques. One of the girls is Roselyn Sanchez from “Without a Trace”. Here is her story…

Without a Trace’s sultry sleuth says she had to kick her workout routine into high gear when she turned 30. “When it happened to me, it was like, what is going on?” says Roselyn Sanchez, 35. “My hips. My legs. My stomach used to be really flat, but now I have to be careful with what I eat.” She keeps in shape with P90X, a 90 day workout plan that has 12 DVDs designed to target a different area of the body. “I swear by it,” says Sanches, who’s been doing the program every morning for six months. “Every girl needs to give it a try. It will change your body!”

“BETHLEHEM, Pa. – David Akers acknowledged he was embarrassed. The Eagles kicker is a perfectionist. He keeps diligent track of his statistics in practice, games and training camp. That’s why his 2-for-10 clip from beyond 40 yards last season made him desperate to change something.

Then one day, while in Dallas during the off-season, Akers saw an infomercial for a new training regimen called P90X.

“I said, you know what, it looks legit because it’s not some gimmick,” Akers recalled. “It [involves] actually working hard and changing the regimen all the time.”

He tried it for the sake of change. He did not intend to lose weight, but he ended up dropping 20 pounds and 6 percent of his body fat.

And his leg feels stronger. He has shown that in camp. Akers, out to prove last season was a fluke, has made two 60-yard field goals, including one yesterday.”
