1

Don't Drink Your Calories

Bella stays away from sugary beverages. "I order a lot of green juices and keep them around on set. I have ginger shots in a cooler, and I'll drink one if I'm feeling low," she told Harper's Bazaar. "I'm also a big coffee drinker. I'll have three espressos before noon."

Eat Breakfast

Bella prioritizes a morning meal. "If I have the morning off, I'll either make eggs and sausage, and eat breakfast at home, or go to the bagel store below my apartment. … My go-to is an egg sandwich on a plain bagel," she told Harper's Bazaar.

Listen to Hunger Cues

Because Bella has "really low blood sugar" she has to "eat all the time" so she doesn't crash. "I like having a good protein meal because I get really tired if I eat too much, so I try to fill myself up with things that will make me feel good," she explained to Harper's Bazaar.

Eat Before a Workout

Bella tries to eat or drink something pre-workout and then after "I count on a smoothie, a juice or a protein drink 30 minutes before the session," she told Vogue Paris. "After the session I eat something full of protein like chicken and wholegrain rice. It's ideal to strengthen the muscle mass and to increase the effects of the session."

Work Out Long and Hard

Bella works out at The Dogpound and Gotham,where she focuses on building muscle via strength training and HIIT. She told E! News that her workouts are extremely long. "I train and I work out hard for two hours — I don't like to do the whole yoga thing. I think yoga is calming, it's amazing, but if I'm going to go for it, I'm going to go hard," she said. "Put in 100% from the start to the end of a workout. There is nothing better than to push yourself to the limit, while making the most of it. Going to the gym for two hours with only 50% motivation is the best way of erasing the feeling of accomplishment and well-being that boosts self-confidence that you get from a workout," she added to Vogue France.

Try a Fitness Hobby

Bella also infuses some fun into exercise with a hobby-slash-workout. "I train with my coach for intensive sessions. I run non-stop for 20 minutes followed by a boxing session and finally a series of weights targeting the abs and glutes," she told Vogue France about her boxing routine. She also rides horses, something she has been doing since she was a kid.
