So, to close out 2022, it's no surprise that she shared a compilation video of a year's worth of workouts on Instagram to the tune of Lil Uzi Vert's "Just Wanna Rock." “A few of this year’s workouts,” writes Ellis Ross in the caption of her latest post. “I’m not here!”
In the new video, Ellis Ross dances with resistance bands and performs exercises like bodyweight kickbacks and squats during the Tracy Anderson Method workout. The woman behind the popular method, Tracy Anderson, is known for attracting celebrity clients including Shakira, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Lopez and Tia Mowry. Her technique is based on her dance background and focuses on strengthening small muscle groups. It appears to be a regular workout routine for Ellis Ross based on her Instagram posts with the studio.

Along with the long-running Tracy Anderson Method, Ellis Ross makes MyMode, a new version of Tracy Anderson's hit method. The low-impact program involves training with wooden props, including a step platform, weights, a bar, bands, plates and a landing pad, which the Black-ish star demonstrates in several clips featured on her recent Instagram.
The year in review post also includes lots of snapshots from gym workouts, including a few strength training moves. Ellis Ross does trap bar deadlifts, sled pushes, battle rope exercises and tricep pulls. She also hits a VersaClimber for sprints on the vertical climbing machine. ICYDK, Ellis Ross has a long-standing collaboration with famed trainer Jason Walsh of Rise Movement.

Outside of the traditional gym, Ellis Ross does something known as the Gyrotonic method. "Gyrotonic exercises focus on fluid, continuous movements that are not shock-driven," Lily Marie Jahn, a Gyrotonic-certified instructor and movement specialist at Erika Bloom, a Pilates studio, previously told Shape. "Although you're building muscle because you're moving against resistance on the Gyrotonic machine, you're really strengthening your body's range of motion."
The training method requires a pulley tower, which is featured in Ellis Ross' Instagram post. The actress has shared her love for the method many times on social media over the years - most recently in December 2022, when she shared a "breakthrough" she experienced while practicing with longtime Gyrotonics and movement master trainer Lisa Marie.
Finally, at the end of her 2022 training review, Ellis Ross takes a moment to recover on her back. She lies on the floor with her legs raised as she looks at the camera, demonstrating the importance of cooling down after exercise to safely lower your heart rate, improve flexibility and prevent injury.
