Ambrosio opened up about her wellness routine in a 2017 interview with Bravo. She says that she eats healthy, and breaks down her typical meals. “For breakfast, I usually have eggs and/or avocado toast. After my workout, I usually grab a green juice, followed by lunch, where I usually have a salad along with some chicken or fish. For dinner, I might go for sushi, or grill at home — some Brazilian BBQ. I also have some nuts or a protein bar in my bag all the time in case I get hungry while I am running around.”
2. She Avoid Fried Foods at Times

When Ambrosio eats healthy, she makes sure to really do so when she has a show or a job coming up. She shared her process of getting ready for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to Bravo. “I love cupcakes and French fries. Months leading up to the show, I usually don’t only eat both of these foods — only once or twice a week.” Ambrosio also says that she makes other changes to her diet leading up to the show as well, and indulges afterwards. “I just make sure to eat healthier versions of the food and smaller portions… Usually after the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, all of us girls get together and eat pizza. Our pizza parties have become a tradition.”
3. She Works Out With Others

When Ambrosio works out, she isn’t always alone. She tells MLHamptons.com that she works out with some of her friends. “There are a bunch of women supporting each other and I think that’s very important,” she says. “It makes it fun. Sometimes, you’re just, like, ‘I really don’t feel like going,’ and then you have all your friends texting, ‘Get your ass over here!’ They don’t accept ‘no’ for an answer. We are always pushing each other.”
4. She Works With A Trainer

Ambrosio recently began working with a personal trainer. She tells MLHamptons that she decided to start this because of lockdowns. “I also have a trainer because last year we couldn’t go to the gym,” Ambrosio explains. “So I found a private trainer. ... It’s a lot of glutes and abs. I try to keep [my workouts to] three or four days a week.”
5. She Eats A Balanced Diet

Ambrosio tells MLHamptons that she makes sure to eat a balanced diet. “I just try to be conscious about what I eat, of course. There are a few days that I’m just like, ‘I want to have dessert.’ I try to be healthy. I’ll try to have salad for lunch. I’m not going to have a lot of carbs for lunch and dinner—so I’ll choose one. If I had carbs for lunch, then for dinner I’ll have more veggies and protein. I try to keep it balanced.”
