Victoria Beckham’s workout routine at 50 years old has her feeling stronger than she did in her 20s
The fashion designer added weight lifting to her routine a few years ago.
Victoria Beckham may be married to one of the most iconic athletes of all time (David Beckham) but she can also hold her own in the gym.
“Victoria treats training like brushing her teeth –it’s something she wants and has to do and it sets her up for the day. It’s just part of her lifestyle,” her personal trainer Bobby Rich previously told Vogue.
As a member of the Spice Girls, Beckham was known for her posh style and thin physique, and not much has changed since then. But after turning 50 earlier this year, Beckham told Grazia that her perspective on body image has shifted in recent years.
“I never want to look like I’m complaining, but there were times in the past that I haven’t felt confident enough to sit on a beach and watch my children play. I remember after I had Brooklyn, my first outing was on the front page of the newspaper, with arrows pointing to where I needed to lose weight. Those things can affect how you feel and conduct yourself in public,” she said. “Now, if paparazzi want to take a picture and say something — too bad, it doesn’t bother me in the same way.”
Beckham seems to be more confident —and fitter — than ever and she has diversified her fitness routine in recent years to include weight lifting, a practice she told Grazia makes her feel “stronger than I did when I was 20.”

The Beckhams certainly keep each other motivated in the gym. They both have the same personal trainer — Bobby Rich — and work out together regularly.
“I train both of them five days a week, in person. When they’re on the road, it’s remote, five days a week. Nothing changes,” Rich told Vogue in 2023.
Beckham occasionally posts videos of her joint sweat sessions with her hubby on Instagram. In 2023, she shared a video of her morning workout with the former soccer player.
The designer also posted a shirtless photo of her husband in 2024, captioning the post, “Saturday morning workout with this fit guy! You’re welcome!!!”
