Jennifer Garner is working on her fitness goals.

On Wednesday, the mom of three went on Instagram to share a glimpse of her workout routine, which includes box jumps, squats, burpees and a Bosu ball.

"If your kids call your workout Jazzercise and it nearly kills you to complete it, do you have the right to video yourself and put it out there to haunt them when they are fifty? 👟🤷🏻‍♀️👯‍♀️: @bethjnicely @thelimitfit)," she joked in the video's caption.

In the video, the actress, 50, smiles as she tackles the high-intensity workout. Shortly after sharing it on her social media account, Garner was applauded by many of her famous friends.

During an appearance on a March 2021 episode of the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast, she told host Giovanna Fletcher that some women's bodies are able to "bounce right back" after having kids, but she's just "not one of them."

"There are some incredible women whose bodies just, no matter how many babies they have, they bounce right back to that slim-hipped, no stomach," she expressed. "It's incredible. I have so many girlfriends who have that physique, and I'm so happy for them. I am not one of them. That is not my gig."
