I get bored of the same routine quite quickly so I love to mix it up. I find I get the best workouts done when I am training with someone or in a group fitness class.
Boxing and reformer pilates are my
I never really know about the jobs I’ve booked until the day before we shoot. I know that most models have their own little tips and tricks that they do, but in all
It doesn’t mean I stress about it any less. But I guess I have the attitude of, well this is how I look, I can’t change much
I usually fast most mornings and have my first meal around midday. I find I have more energy this way and I feel a lot lighter, and it helps me control cravings for the rest of the day.
Other than that I don’t really follow a specific diet. I’ve tried various diets in the past but over time I noticed that a normal, balanced diet is what works best for me and my health.
According to most peoples definition of “cheat meals” I probably end up having some sort of cheat meal every day. But I don’t consider them cheat meals.
My absolute favourite food to indulge in is chocolate chip cookies. I also love bread and potatoes. I’m a simple girl.
Motivation doesn’t come easy for me when it comes to working out. That’s why I prefer booking in a fitness class, or organizing to workout with a friend or trainer.
It forces me to show up and work out. I never get great workouts done when I workout by myself. I distract myself way too much and I never push myself hard enough.
My number one fitness tip for young women would be, relax. Be kinder to yourself. Stress doesn’t help anyone when it comes to your health and your body.
I know it is easier said than done. But loving yourself is the best recipe to seeing results.
I notice how stubborn my body is when I stress about my weight and when I start comparing myself to other girls. But when I accept myself, I find myself getting into better shape with less exercise, and I more relaxed diet.
