Aimee Garcia is modeling workout gear in Brazil. In a new social media post the Lucifer actress shows off her amazing body – including her flat abs – in an Alo and Dior ensemble, “Obrigada Brazil 🇧🇷🫶🏽” she captioned a post. “Damn! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥” commented one. “Wow Aimee. You look so beautiful with your bikini,” says another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

Aimee tackles beauty from the inside out. She walked Glamour through her skin care routine revealing that the key ingredient in her beauty routine is actually food. “Well, I swear by avocado. It's excellent for your hair and skin, so I eat one daily,” she said.
2. Strength Training
Aimee enjoys strength training. “I work out every day or at least I try to. I believe that exercise preserves youth more than anything else,” Aimee told Glamour. “Sometimes if I'm at home watching TV I do weight-lifting moves with cans during commercials. It really is that easy! Trust me, if you do that and throw in squats and a couple of push-ups during commercial breaks you will see a change in your body.” According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:
• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills
3. Dancing
Garcia shares lots of dance videos on social media. Why should you dance? Not only does it build strength and promote flexibility, but helps you lose weight and even promotes cardiovascular function. A 2016 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine determined that people who engaged in moderate-intensity dancing were 46 percent less likely to develop heart disease or die from it than non-dancers. In comparison, moderate-intensity walkers were just 25 percent less likely to suffer heart health issues.
4. Do Yoga
Aimee also does yoga, she told Filler Magazine. Harvard Health endorses yoga as a great workout. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”
5. Hydration

Aimee drinks “tons of water,” she told Filler. Hydration is important for a variety of reasons, says Mayo Clinic. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
6. Sleep
How else does Aimee stay gorgeous? “Sleep!” she told Filler. “Your skin rejuvenates when you sleep so it's the best pick-me-up activity …. Especially when you have to be at work at 4 A.M." The Sleep Foundation maintains that getting enough z’s is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.
