Lizze Broadway is a very successful actress who, at 26, is already an acting veteran. She is currently appearing on Gen V, a spinoff of the hit series, The Boys. In November, she shared some photos and videos on Instagram of herself from the set. She captioned the post, “Behind the scenes of @genv on @primevideo All episodes out now 🦗🫶🏼 🩸” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Lizze Broadway stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.
1. She Does Gymnastics
Broadway loves to do gymnastics to keep herself in shape. In this Instagram post, she shared a video of herself doing some handsprings. Gymnastics Victoria states that the sport has a lot of benefits. “Gymnastics helps improve focus in young people and adults. Gymnastics tasks require high levels of concentration in order to reduce the risk of injury. Improved concentration and focus comes from the independent thinking and problem solving skills developed while learning a new skill or completing a difficult task. New skills and difficult tasks are relative to each individual so improvements in focus and concentration can be seen throughout all levels of gymnastics. Improving concentration can also improve a person's cognitive function and memory skills.”
2. She Spends Time With Dogs
Broadway loves to spend time with dogs. In the previous post, she is seen with a dog. Broadway also shared this post, which has two photos of herself with dogs. Harvard Health states that having a dog has health benefits. “Ongoing research is showing that the health benefits of owning a dog are undeniable. Dog owners have lower blood pressure and healthier cholesterol levels, and a lower risk of heart disease, than non-owners.”
3. She’s Passionate
Broadway opened up about her career in an interview with Collider. “I acted when I was younger but just as a hobby. I didn't know if I necessarily wanted to do it. And then, four years ago, I had a friend who was in the industry, and I was like, ‘Okay, either I'm gonna be a computer science engineer or an actor.’ So I was like, ‘Okay, I'll give myself five years,’ and this was fall of 2019. Now I'm sitting here with you. So, in a way, I kind of fell into it and this is my time of taking it seriously.”
4. She Feels Support

Broadway tells Collider that she feels a lot of support from the other women on the Gen V set. “I love those women and I don't want to be weird, but they gave me such a safe space to fail. I would come in with 50 questions and they wouldn't make me feel silly for asking them, even if one worked — or 100 questions. They'd invite them in. So, because of them, I'm truly a more confident artist.”
5. She’s Visual

Broadway says to Collider that she is very visual, and she brings that to her character. “I'm a very visual person, so with Emma, as much as it’s an internal journey she's going through, I really wanted it to be visual for the audience. I had the privilege of collaborating with Lauren Montgomery, our amazing costume designer, and for the first two episodes, like I said, the funniest people are the saddest, so you'll see her wearing a lot of smiley faces and a lot of vibrant clothing to mask how she feels inside , right? And then when you hit 103, that's its own visual journey with the big clothes and then the sad beauty and then the hero moment. And then I got to work with Colin Penman in Indiana, who was my makeup artist, because I liked the idea of shedding the skin, so I had a spray tan in 101, and Emma shed her skin when she was gaining confidence, after 106 when she started getting confident. That's what I love to bring, is just the visual aspect. I don't know if the audience will see, but that's what I love.”
