1. She Doesn’t Want To Lose Too Much Weight
When it comes to working out, McGuinness doesn’t do it to lose weight. She tells The Mirror that fitness is more about how she feels than how she looks. “You need to focus on how you feel,” she said. “I had an eating disorder for 10 years. Constantly focusing on weight and losing it became an obsession. When you get into fitness, if you take away the scales and just go on how you feel and how your clothes fit, you become a bit more relaxed.”
2. She Strength Trains

One of McGuinness’ favorite workouts to do are strength training exercises. She tells The Mirror, “My goal is to be strong, not just slim. I want some shape and that’s why I go to the gym. When I’m lifting weights, I feel stronger.”

One of McGuinness’ fitness secrets is that she actually likes to work out. She even has her own workout plan. She writes on her website, “Whether it’s at home or in the gym, working out gives me some valuable ‘me time’, where I can de-stress and focus on looking after and working on myself. I LOVE training and how it makes me feel both physically and mentally and always have done.”

McGuinness has a busy schedule, which means she doesn’t always have time to go to the gym. She likes to do at-home workouts to help her stay in shape.

McGuinness revealed her daily diet to Closer Online. She says that she eats a lot of protein. “I usually have a protein shake first thing, followed by scrambled eggs and avocado after the gym. In the afternoon, Paddy and I will eat out at a restaurant. I’ll order chicken salad with extra chicken to get a good protein hit after exercising. In the evenings, we’ll have salmon with broccoli and sweet potato.”
