There are some moments on social media that leave you double-taking, and Courtney Cox’s latest Instagram post is one of those moments.
The iconic actress, best known for her role as Monica Geller on “Friends,” just turned 60 but shows no signs of slowing down. On July 7th, she shared a glimpse into her fitness and wellness routine that had fans buzzing.
In the video, Courtney starts off by acknowledging her recent milestone birthday, expressing mixed feelings about the number but emphasizing the importance of doing one’s best to stay fit and healthy. She then dives into a series of exercises, showcasing her dedication to maintaining her figure.
The real kicker comes at the end of the clip when she emerges from a freezer…did she really now?
Yes, Courtney Cox did step out of a freezer aka in her bikini and a face mask. Cryotherapy is a wellness treatment that involves exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures to reduce inflammation, enhance muscle recovery, and boost overall health. Courtney showcased this practice humorously on Instagram, highlighting both its benefits and the lengths people go to for wellness. Her playful approach made the intense treatment seem more approachable and entertaining.
Courtney Cox’s Cool Approach to Wellness
Courtney Cox isn’t new to sharing her life and humor on social media. With a blend of genuine fitness efforts and tongue-in-cheek commentary, she has managed to keep her followers entertained and inspired.
Her recent cryotherapy post is a perfect example of this balance. Cryotherapy, which involves exposing the body to extremely cold temperatures for a short period, is touted for its benefits like reducing inflammation, boosting metabolism, and improving overall wellness.
In her Instagram video, Courtney jokes about the practice, stepping out of the cryotherapy chamber with a casual “what it’s cryotherapy,” showing off her toned body and hinting at the lengths some people go to for their health. This isn’t the first time Courtney has used humor to address her wellness journey.
Earlier in May, she posted a video where she humorously dealt with the Miami humidity, using a voiceover from her “Friends” character to express her love-hate relationship with the city’s weather. “I love Miami, but it’s the humidity,” she said, showing off her frizzier hair due to the moist air.
Fans are often treated to behind-the-scenes looks at her life, whether she’s joking about her hair, participating in trending challenges, or sharing her fitness routines. These are celebrities so, it’s quite common to see it all through a lens.
On April 17th, she even poked fun at the popular Glambot camera used at red carpets, posting a video with the caption, “not ready for the carpet yet,” followed by a comical sequence of her trying to perfect her pose.
“Cryotherapy isn’t just about standing in a freezer, it’s about standing up to the pressure of staying fit and laughing through it all,” Courtney seems to tell us.
Her light-hearted take on such a serious and sometimes daunting wellness trend makes it approachable and, dare we say, enjoyable.
Are you a fan of wellness trends, or do you think they’re just another fad?
