1. She Runs

Clearly a big part of Alica’s stay-fit routine is by doing a lot of running. According to the Mayo Clinic, running is great for cardiovascular health, muscle building, and weight loss. “For every mile run, the average person will burn approximately 100 calories,” they say.

2. She Trains

In addition to training on the track, Alica also works out in a gym. She can often be found doing battle ropes, kettlebell exercises, working out with a medicine ball, or lifting weights.

3. She Drinks Pre-Workout Shakes

Alica is a fan of pre-workout shakes. “I always need a good booster before a workout to reach my limits,” she explained in this Instagram image. Her shake-of-choice, Energy Aminos from Foodspring has caffeine, piperine, plant-based BCAAs, and vitamins C, B3 and B12.

4. She Loves Sushi and Spaghetti

Alica has revealed that japanese food is one of her favorite meals. She once celebrated her birthday with “a loooot of sushi.” She also loves a certain Italian dish. “My go-to food: spaghetti,” she revealed in a post. “I always have Italian pasta in my cupboard. At least 3x a week I prepare myself spaghetti in different variations. Gladly before a workout, but also often afterwards to replenish my stores. It's a great dish, goes fast (because often I don't have much time🙈) and tastes fabulous even with few ingredients. In the reel I prepare my favorite recipe for you. Quick, super tasty, healthy and easy.”

5. She Enjoys Outdoor Activities

Alicia’s lifestyle is incredibly active, even while off the track. She loves swimming, bodyboarding, swimming, and skiing, regularly sharing photos of herself having fun and burning calories.

6. She Takes a Break When She Needs One

When Alica needs a break, she takes one. “Not gonna lie, I’m not satisfied with my races this year. I’ve worked harder than ever before day in day out pushed my limits in every workout and made so many sacrifices. It was not an easy year with my Covid Infection and torn ligaments but nevertheless, I know what I am capable of and I‘m hungry for more,” she wrote in August 2021, after not being able to compete in the Tokyo Olympics. “Now, I'm going to take a break and I'm looking forward to coming back feeling fresh and ready to train hard again.”
