Candace works with trainer, Kira Stokes to keep herself in shape. “Our workouts incorporate strength training with cardio, plyo work and balance,” she said to People Magazine. “What’s so specific about Kira is the order of the moves that she does that complement one another, which really makes a huge difference in her workout.”

Candace makes sure to eat healthy, and broke down her diet to People Magazine. “I eat a very plant and grain-based diet,” she says. “I follow a more Mediterranean diet, so I eat lots of fresh vegetables and whole grains and fish. I don’t eat dairy very often, and I’ve cut most of the sugar out of my diet — I see the biggest effect from not eating as much sugar.”

Candace likes to do a lot of things to keep herself in shape, and shared some of her favorites with Parade. “I try to work out four to five times a week. I mix it up a lot, so it stays interesting to me. I’m usually at the gym two or three times a week, and the other days are at home using the Kira Stokes fitness app, or outside running, or doing the Santa Monica stairs.  I’ve taken to the Stoked Method which includes a combination of cardio, strength, weights, plyometrics and mobility. I often jump rope, use bands and gliders and lift weights—both heavy and light—for fine tuning.”

When she’s exercising, Candace isn’t focused on doing things fast and getting a ton of reps. Instead, she focuses on doing the moves properly. “Technique and form is key,” Candace said to Parade. “If you don’t actively engage the right muscles for each move, you’re doing the movement in vain. Slower and done properly is where you want to be.”
