Jennifer Aniston’s dedication to fitness is both legendary and Instagram gold. At 56, the actress consistently shares peeks of her home gym, inside her $14.8 million Mediterranean-style Montecito mansion (the one formerly owned by Oprah). Here’s exactly how to recreate her sleek workout sanctuary, from the specific equipment she swears by to the design elements that make her space so inviting.
Jennifer Aniston’s Home Gym Design
Aniston’s gym is a wellness-focused design that makes working out feel less like a chore and more like a retreat. The space features floor-to-ceiling mirrors that not only help check form but create the illusion of endless space—a smart trick for making even smaller home gyms feel expansive.
Natural light floods the room through floor-to-ceiling windows that offer views of her pretty backyard and palm trees, and the color palette stays sophisticated with light walls and natural wood tones creating an airy, open feel.
For flooring, Aniston opts for wood-look vinyl for warmth and durability with strategic rubber mats for equipment protection. Everything disappears into sleek wooden built-in cabinetry when not in use, maintaining the room’s clean aesthetic while providing essential storage.
A strategically placed TV mounted on the wooden cabinet allows for guided workouts or entertainment during cardio sessions. The room also features proper ventilation and climate control.
The acoustics have been carefully considered too. While not explicitly detailed, experts note that a sound system or smart speaker for voice-controlled music is essential in a luxury home gym like Aniston’s. This creates the right atmosphere and helps maintain motivation throughout workouts.
In addition to her main gym, Aniston has transformed a separate space into a dedicated yoga studio. This wooden-floored haven serves as her personal retreat for peace, relaxation, and plenty of stretching. The yoga room embodies the same design principles as her main gym, with an emphasis on natural light and clean, uncluttered spaces.
Equipment
One thing we’ve learned from Aniston’s Instagram? She really loves her collection of Pvolve equipment, which she began using in 2021 while recovering from a back injury. Her posts reveal she’s particularly fond of the P.band, a resistance band with hand attachments that makes it easier to grip during rows and curls, targeting those famous Aniston arms. She frequently incorporates the P.ball—a thick rubber Pilates ball wrapped in adjustable resistance straps that wrap around thighs, legs, or ankles to isolate small muscles during exercises.
Aniston’s self-proclaimed favorite piece is the P.3 Trainer, which combines resistance bands and straps for what she describes as «elongating and strengthening» her entire body. She rounds out her collection with light ankle bands for sculpting legs and core, plus gliders (sliding discs that increase stability during workouts).
For those who travel frequently like her, she recently launched the Sculpt Anywhere Bundle that includes these five pieces of equipment in a compact neoprene bag small enough for carry-on.
How to Recreate the Look
Start with the foundation by opting for durable wood-look vinyl flooring with strategic rubber mats in areas where equipment will be used. Maximize natural light by positioning your home gym near windows if possible, or use full-spectrum lighting that mimics natural daylight.
