Jennifer Lopez is known for her athletic body and iconic curves.

I decided to try Lopez's signature workouts for a week in the hopes of discovering her secrets to staying fit.

It wasn't easy, but it taught me that switching up your workout is crucial.

After focusing mostly on floor work, weights, and kickboxing I felt stronger by the end of the week.

There are few things I know to be true in life, but there's one fact that I am absolutely sure of: at the age of 48, Jennifer Lopez looks younger than I do, and I am a relatively good-looking guy half her age.

In some cases, Lopez has been partially credited as the catalyst for the introduction of thicker body types into the mainstream, even before haters could say it was Photoshop.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderNOW WATCH: Why North Korea sent hundreds of cheerleaders to the OlympicsSee Also:The 10 biggest differences between Australian and American weddingsKim Kardashian swears by this drugstore shampoo, and it only costs 44 things that help you transition to natural hair, according to hairstylists
