Happy Birthday Jennifer Lopez! It's hard to believe that the award-winning star turned 57 on July 24, as she looks youthful beyond her years.
Jennifer has been candid about aging in Hollywood, sharing her refreshing attitude: everything gets better with time.
She told Elle: "People have realized that women just get sexier as they get older. They get more learned and more rich with character. All of that is very beautiful and attractive, and not just physically, but on the inside, the beauty that you gain as you get older, the wisdom you gain."

She expressed: "I see myself working [as long as] I want to. I don't know what that age is. It might be 70, it might be 80, it might be 90, I don't know. But I know that it's there for me if I want it and I want to create it."
© InstagramThe actress isn't a fan of people projecting limitations on her simply based on her demographic, therefore, she loves proving skeptics wrong by remaining multifaceted and giving her goals 100 percent.
Jennifer added: "That has always been the mindset that I've had: to never let anybody put me in a box because of where I was born, where I'm from, what age I am, anything like that. Those boundaries don't exist for me."
Jennifer's workouts

She consistently does a mix of full-body circuit training, the Tracy Anderson Method, dancing classes, pole workouts and she doesn't take it easy on herself.

Jennifer's ab routine itself is no joke, as she does 50 hanging ab raises, 50 incline sit-ups on a round plate, and 50 rope crunches as one of her sets.
Jennifer's take on fitness
Most important, is Jennifer's headstrong commitment to her fitness goals.
Her personal trainers Dodd Romero and Tracy Anderson revealed to Us Weekly two years ago what sets Jennifer apart.
Dodd shared: "Jennifer's in better shape now than she’s ever been. She's tough [and] really doesn’t ever complain about anything. Wherever I tell her to go, she'll go."
Tracy added: "Moving is part of Jennifer’s core values. She does what she needs to do."
