Interview
Interviewer: You look fabulous! What do you do to keep in shape?
Jennifer Aniston: I work out 5-7 days a week, doing at least 40 minutes of cardio on the treadmill, elliptical, or spin machine. I compliment my cardio heavy routine with one day of Pilates and three days of Yoga. Every night before bed I stretch and do sit-ups. As for my diet I usually eat fish, green vegetables, and quinoa.
Creating Conversation & New Friendships
Talking about fitness & health is quite common in casual conversation. If you are a fitness and health-oriented person, this is a great topic. It is also a great way to strike up a conversation to meet new people.
Like the interviewer, start with a compliment and then ask the fitness question. Most people will respond positively and tell you about their health and fitness efforts. If you have similar interests, ask to work out with them. I personally find working out with people a great way to get to know someone. You often have lots of talking time during, before, and/or after the fitness activity. Moreover, the heath benefits are great!
