Jake Gyllenhaal met his new girlfriend in the gym.

The End of Watch actor - who previously dated Reese Witherspoon, Kirsten Dunst, Minka Kelly and Taylor Swift - has been romancing Sports Illustrated model Emily DiDonato since early 2013 after meeting her at popular celebrity spin studio SoulCycle in New York.

A source close to the 32-year-old actor told USMagazine.com that he has been dating the 22-year-old beauty for "a month or two" after they struck up a friendship following a spinning class together last autumn.

The insider revealed Jake is a huge fan of the classes and thinks they are a great way to meet women, saying: "He'll hop on the instructor bike. He loves the attention from the girls!"

Country singer Taylor, 23, previously revealed that she found dating Jake from November 2011 until January 2012 "exhausting".

Following their breakup she said: "I think once a relationship is done it's done, you can't do that back and forth thing - it's the most exhausting process. I think you have to have somebody that's dependable, that isn't going to change their mind every five seconds."

Other SoulCycle fans include Bradley Cooper, Katie Holmes, Alec Baldwin, Jonah Hill and Lady Gaga.
