Just days ago, as she was working on the set of her latest film, “Bad Teacher,” in which she’s to appear for the first time next to ex Justin Timberlake, Cameron Diaz rocked a pair of Daisy Dukes which brought all the attention to her incredible legs. Though she often says she has genetics to thank for, the star also works hard to look this good, People magazine says.

Since the photos taken on the set of the film prompted talk of how Diaz was the “original Daisy Duke” (a not too subtle swing at Jessica Simpson who was the last to play the character and rock the short cutoffs that made her so popular with audiences), People set out to find out which was her secret. It’s not really that much of a secret, her personal trainer, Teddy Bass, explains: Cameron likes to mix it up and always keep moving. And it shows.

“Sure, even her trainer Teddy Bass admits Cameron Diaz is a ‘genetic wonder,’ but that doesn’t mean the 37-year-old actress can slack off on her workouts. For her role as a Daisy-Dukes wearing professor in the new movie Bad Teacher, Diaz maintained a rigorous workout regimen. ‘Cameron has an amazing work ethic both in work and personally in life as a whole,’ says Bass,” People magazine writes, after speaking to the actress’ personal trainer.

“‘She works so hard.’ And how hard is hard for the perfectly toned star? With her ‘schedule permitting,’ the actress hits the gym with Bass for regular sessions of weights for strength training including lots of lunges and squats, mixed in with cardio circuits and Pilates work. Her ‘desired look,’ according to Bass? ‘Elongated’ and toned muscles – a goal she’s clearly achieved. Adds Bass: ‘That photo doesn’t lie or hide anything!’” the publication further says.

As the attached photo shows, Cameron Diaz is in top shape – though, in all fairness, she’s always been like that. An avid surfer and outdoorsy person, Cameron has always kept active to maintain her slim and toned figure, which is more than obvious after casting a single glance at her washboard abs and toned legs.
