If you want to get a body like Nikki's you are going to have to sweat for it. She revealed in an interview several years back, that adding exercise to her life was a major game changer in getting into shape. "I had to change the amount I ate but mainly I started moving!" she said. "I didn't starve myself. I started going to the gym doing running, light weights and swimming as well as dancing, which I love."

Nikki maintains that eating less junk does your body good. "As far as my change in diet went, it was really simple. I just cut down on bad stuff – I didn't cut anything out," she said. "I eat all the same foods, just less of them." She later added, "I think as long as you eat within reason and exercise you'll be healthier. Just don't go out and buy supersize takeaways – try getting something a bit smaller."

Nikki fuels up with carbs. For breakfast she has "white toast and butter, hot cross buns or cereal," followed by "prawn buttie or pasta with tuna or a baked potato," for lunch. For dinner she might have a Caesar salad or spaghetti bolognese. "My favorite food, apart from biscuits, is my mum's Sunday roast – it's the best ever," she confessed. 

Nikki also loves going for hikes. "It's been a minute.I know I've been pretty absent from the grid for a couple of months. I've been having fun, spending time with family and friends… and of course going on adventures ✨ So here is me, on one of my said adventures," she captioned this photo from her hike. 

Nikki works out with a personal trainer. Her workout routine involves a lot of strength and weight training and even fighting. "Boxing and Body Conditioning," she captioned this video. "Another awesome workout with my trainer." 

Nikki also has a workout buddy. "Couples that train together, remain together," she captioned a recent post of herself exercising with her love, Anthony Quinny. 

Another great way to stay in shape, per Nikki? Going for walks. "Long walks on windy days," she captioned a post. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace
