1. She Maintains a Keto Diet

Healthy eating is crucial to Alexa’s stay-fit success. At the press conference of "The Good Son" Alexa revealed that she was on the Ketogenic diet, per Star Cinema. She explained that it is a "low carb and high-fat" diet, allowing her to eat dairy and fatty food.

2. She Drinks Coffee…with This Added

"My coffee, it's not normal coffee... It has virgin coconut [oil]," Alexa shared in the same post. Her concoction is very similar to Bulletproof coffee. The added fat is said to keep hunger at bay. Why is a cup of coffee in the morning a good idea? Not only does it give you a jolt of energy, but a new 2022 study published in European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that drinking two to three cups a day of most types of coffee – especially a mild to moderate intake of ground, instant, and decaffeinated coffee – may protect you from cardiovascular disease and an early death.

3. She Cheats

Alexa eats healthy Monday through Friday. However, the weekends are a different story. "I have my cheat days, so I normalize it somehow,” she said at the press conference. “Saturday, Sunday. Because you plateau when your body is too used to it."

4. She Goes to the Doctor

Alexa visits the doctor regularly to make sure she is healthy. "Actually, I checked, everything is very normal to me,” she said at the press conference.

5. She Does Strength Training Workouts Daily

Alexa is a fan of calisthenic classes, attending them every single day. The form of strength training helps increase strength, fitness, and flexibility. In this YouTube video she gave fans a glimpse at her workout. Most of the exercises can be done anywhere. “No more excuses. Doing this for myself,” she captioned a recent post from a workout.
