While she spent years training 'really hard,' she has now switched up her workouts because she became 'too muscular'.
'My trainer and I are into reps instead of heavy weights because the goal is now about sculpting,' she tells the publication.
Her secret routine is walking up 32 flights in her apartment building, taking the elevator down and repeating with weights.

'I love walking stairs because it's great cardio and resistance,' she explains.
She said her husband's admiring glances help keep her motivated to stay fit. (The couple, who are parents to Jaden, 16, and Willow, 14, denied rumours of a split earlier this year.)
She says: 'When my husband of almost 20 years can’t take his eyes off me? That’s amazing. But the number one reason I go to the gym is because it keeps me sane… I can deal with whatever’s coming at me.'

Jada also talked about how she keeps the fire alive in her relationship.
'Will and I were just reading The Tao of Physics by Fritjof Capra together and having long discussions about it. We love books about religion and spiritual expression.
'It's a big turn on for me to be spiritually and intellectually challenged by Will. To me, it's like foreplay.
'Of course, I enjoy that I have sex in my relationship, but I think this other intellectual aspect is quite unique and something that strongly connects us.'
The January/February issue of Shape is on newsstands in the US on December 31.
