Gisele Bündchen has been showing off her incredibly toned physique since welcoming her third child, and fans are once again taking a closer look at the fitness routine she’s followed throughout her decades-long career. While the supermodel has incorporated everything from Pilates and weight training to outdoor activities into her workouts over the years, a resurfaced clip from a 2014 appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon is putting one particularly simple exercise back in the spotlight. Read more about it below.

Gisele Bündchen Shares One Of Her Favorite Exercises In A Resurfaced Clip

The supermodel has maintained her famously toned figure throughout her decades in the spotlight, from her early days as one of the world’s most recognizable supermodels to becoming a mom-of-three. Now in her 40s, she’s continued to prioritize movement and strength, even after welcoming her youngest child last February. In recent years, she’s opened up about incorporating weight training, Pilates, yoga, jiu-jitsu, and plenty of outdoor activities into her routine.

As fans continue to admire her post-baby physique, a viral clip from 12 years ago has resurfaced that offers a glimpse into one of the exercises she’s long relied on. During a 2014 appearance on The Tonight Show, the model demonstrated the move for Jimmy Fallon after discussing her fitness and showing off some of her impressive physical abilities.

In the clip, Gisele gets into a plank position with her body held straight, and her core engaged, supporting herself on her forearms and toes. She then shows off how she likes to take the move to the next level by adding movement, including using only one leg. The viral moment has seemingly helped explain why she’s remained such a fan of it over the years.

“This is good for your abs, and it’s good for your arms, and it’s basically good for everything,” she says in the clip.

Fans React To Gisele’s One-Legged Plank & Fitness Online

It’s no surprise that the resurfaced clip has caught fans’ attention, especially as the mom-of-three continues to showcase her strength years after her viral plank clip.

Her approach to fitness has seemingly evolved, but she has consistently emphasized movement as a way to feel strong and healthy rather than simply exercising for her appearance. In a 2024 interview, she said she works out regularly and enjoys activities including surfing, swimming, horseback riding, and volleyball in addition to Pilates.

Under the Victoria’s Secret star’s impressive plank video from 2014, YouTube users left comments on how they admire her strength.

One user called Gisele the “definition of a supermodel,” as another commented that she looked “gorgeous and down to earth” while demonstrating her plank.

Another user joked about Jimmy trying to keep up with Gisele in the viral interview, writing, “He is so flustered by the power of Gisele.”

“She is impressive,” commented a user.

“Love how they make exercise look like such fun!” added another. “The plank is powerful.”
